I wonder Amanda if it isn't actually serving some people's intentions to fuel conflict and thereby keep the focus off legitimate resistance to how world leaders are making decisions that impact our lives.

It just kills me to see people used as pawns in a game they don't even know is going on. Many of those young protesters believe passionately about something important to the them and perhaps to all of us but those who just want to make trouble get the spotlight and hijack the messages the protestors intended to raise awareness about. Poverty, employment, women's issues.... all lost to the insanity of distruction.
