Dave,
The first thing they destroy is Police Cars, doesn't make sense to incite them.
A few police cars got torched at the Toronto G8. Interestingly, the ones
that were wrecked were older, out of service cars that had no radios or
other police equipment inside, and had been more or less abandoned by
the officers more than a shift prior to being torched.
It was almost like as if the police had set the cars up to be destroyed.
Bob, the police are no longer our friends. They are, at best, allies
with shifting priorities that may include our well being one day, and
something completely different the next day.
You have had at least one major incident in California of cops killing a
defenceless citizen who wasn't fighting back, we've had at least one
incident of the RCMP killing a person who wasn't really doing anything
that made killing him a necessity.
Think of the police the same way you think of Pakistan. They say they
are our friends, but behind the scenes they are working only for
themselves and whatever serves their interests, and it is only happy
coincidence when their needs and our needs coincide.
