You think some of them won't? You're not that naïve, Brick.

I think most of them are more worried about getting home safely. This is a really dangerous situation for the police. When they go and beat someone up 5 on 1 they do it knowing they likely aren't going to get injured or die. Mess with the wrong group of protestors here and you may be in the bad part of a molotov cocktail.

Maybe they needed an excuse to install the next round of ultra surveillance devices in our great city - devices that will remain long after this silly one-week unnecessary meeting that they could have had in Saskatchewan is over.

Yes! The same surveillance devices that do nothing to prevent crime from happening.

Does the CCTV net in Chicago actually help solve any crimes?

It's probably not so much about busting bad guys, saving lives, or catching criminals red-handed as it is about watching and recording everyone and everything.

Where you can speak out loud
About your doubts and fears
And what's more no-one ever disappears
You never hear their standard issue kicking in your door.

This discussion made me think of this song.

Great album.

A march is supposed to start within the next 30 minutes at 51st & Halstead and go either to the 9th District Police station on 31st or the main station on 35th & State. Supposedly its the same group that threw bricks and overturned cars in Seattle.

If these people start smashing cars with bricks, I hope the police compete in the people throw and face smash.

No doubt.

These protesters just want to let off some steam.

I blame, in order: Jody Weiss, Jane Byrne, Anton Cermak and the Taco Bell chain that offers free tacos to everyone in the city if the head bustin exceeds 100.

I would much rather have the city over run with the guys and gals from that parade then the puds that don't have the balls to protest with out those masks on.

Honestly I really do fear for the public servants in the city because they are damned if they do and damned if they don't. The puds will cry foul if they get arrested and then the normal Joe citizen will cry foul if they don't have enough protection.

The protesters are a bunch of wussies...If I didn't fear chipping a nail I would go down there and pelt them with tomatoes and make fun of them.

A band of several dozen protesters marched up Halsted Street this evening from the South Side through Bridgeport, where some engaged in a shouting match with residents.

The marchers, some of whom covered their faces with hoods or bandanas, began their protest at about 51st Street and Halsted, chanting obscenities about police and police brutality.

About 20 bike-riding officers repeatedly rode to the front of the crowd of about 40 demonstrators and formed an angled line across Halsted Street to funnel them back onto the sidewalk. Then officers would walk their bikes next to the sidewalk to enforce the restriction. When protesters slipped in front again, the whole process would start over.

Some curious residents tagged along during the early part of the march, which was without incident until the marchers reached Chicago Police Deering District headquarters in the Bridgeport neighborhood.

There, angry local residents shouted at the protesters to leave, while police stood between them to prevent altercations. Some protesters repeatedly yelled "De-escalate" when things appeared to get tense.

It was at least the second small protest of the day as demonstrators gear up for this weekend's gathering of world leaders at the May 20-21 NATO summit.

Again,

How do you protest without making it known what your gripe is? I'm all about causes and being involved and shit, but I really don't understand. And they're not doing a good job at educating the public. I would love to support them if I thought their cause was worthwhile. How can they expect people to join them in their cause if the cause itself is vague and aimed at no one in particular?

Man...
