Why are these loons still here? Get a job or OD you bums!

now they are assault police officers!

should of been shot dead!

Turvey was charged with obstructing a peace officer and assault with intent to resist arrest. She was released on $1,000 bail Saturday and ordered to reside with her parents in Port Colborne.

Three others arrested with her — John Erb, 44, Craig Poirier, 35, and Alice Evonic, 19 — remain in jail until their next court appearance on Monday.

They face a number of charges, including marijuana possession, obstructing police and assault.

The arrests sparked a demonstration that evening, leading to more charges and again, Saturday afternoon where several hundred gathered downtown.

But police aren’t cracking down on protesting, Drummond said.

“People can protest lawfully, that’s not an issue,” she said. “The issue yesterday was with the trespass and resisting of arrest. It had nothing to do with protesting.”

It would appear you disagree with the police.

Not authoritarian enough for you?

protesting is getting a permit and going to queens park or something. not blocking streets and trespassing and assault officers.

General Franco would not be impressed...

A permit for this leftist scum????

I would have thought you might have suggested a firing squad??

The beatings will continue until morale improves!!!

To be honest I can't get too upset when police are assaulted. Most of them deserve a bit of that anyway.

That's how I feel about the protesters too.

Make sure to convey that sentiment next time you require police assistance. I find it very funny when jokers like yourself whine and complain about police, and then when you require police assistance you quickly forget your "issues" with them.

You can probably get medical/pshyciatric help for that.

I question things because I am human. And call no one my father who's no closer than a stranger

Do you also recommend that same action for this:

Police are bullies with a badge. They assaulted that person for no reason. "Resisted arrest" my ass. Do you know what they consider resisting arrest?

Moving your body. You don't have to be trying to escape to be accused of resisting arrest.

Don't ban me bro. Oh behave, I'll behave. I'll be a good little boy.

See that sounds like good old "waa waa poor me". Cops do not go an arrest people for no reason, and resisting arrest is resisting arrest. People like you do stupid things that get them at odds with the law, when the police arrive they try to fight back, lose and then cry in the media about police brutality. If those idiots weren't doing something wrong, the police will have no reason to arrest them. If they complied with police they would not get hurt, I honestly believe in the overwhelming majority of these cases this retards cause a problem, get arrested and hurt because they are resisting arrest and then complain in the media.

I don't know if they did or didn't. (Though I find it difficult to imagine why police officers would assault anyone, let alone for no reason.) I was merely trying to determine if dre is one-sided with his recommendations of psychiatric help.

Yea, it often seems that way. There is such a thing as police brutality; it happens. But, it isn't as though the perennial protesters always stage their protests in lawful and considerate ways; they frequently seem to believe they have the sole right to use whatever space they want and dictate the laws that apply there, then fight with anyone who thinks otherwise, which is usually the police.

This whole paragraph is bunk

case in point: G20 mass arrests with no charges laid

That argument is bullshit, you cannot argue that the mass arrests were no justified. I think the mass arrests were no enough as was evident by the actions of the animals during the G20. There is a right way to protest and there is a wrong way to protest and the G20 were split in the middle. There was a group of protesters that were within their rights, and the other group, the animals that should not be allowed to live in a civilized society. You can say that the Toronto police service arrested over 1000 people and charged only a couple of hundred, and it would prove a point until you go to the events in question and view the chaos. The police did the best they could with their hands tied behind their backs, I hate little punks like you who probably have never held an honest job in their lives who bad mouth the police who routinely put themselves in risky situations to keep the rest of us safe. Sure there are bad cops, but they are a very small minority and painting the entire police department of Toronto or any other city as being brutal and corrupt is ignorant and idiotic. I would suggest you go on a tour around the world in say Syria, or Iran, try China and see what REAL police brutality is and you will see that the Western World has intelligent hardworking fair police officers and are not even remotely oppressive.

Great point! I know I'm happy to know our police are better than the "police" in Iran, Syria, and China. I'm glad our police use rubber bullets and bean-bag rounds, instead of real ammunition against protesters. I'm glad our police use teargas and flashbangs instead of grenades and tanks. I'm glad our police only detain innocent people for a couple days, rather than indefinitely. I'm glad we live in an exemplary nation that differs in degree, rather than kind.

If you are stupid enough to poke yourself in the eye, are you going to blame the pen for being brutal?

If an idiot was to do something illegal, police arrive to arrest him for breaking the law, that same idiot fights the police I would say he deserves what he gets.

At the end of the day the G20 was a disaster mainly because the police had unrealistic restrictions and those animals damaged our city, if anything I believe police were too tame and not aggressive enough.

Well, during the G20 the police arrived and arrested hundreds of people that didn't break any laws.

And if they had arrested hundreds more, maybe there wouldn't have been a problem. You are saying the the police were oppressive to those animals, yet you don't condemn those animals for what they did. I believe that there was some irregularities with the arrests, but in the majority of them I personally believe they were justified in detaining them. For example going to the G20 with a gas mask on you probably would not make you a peaceful protestor, honestly how many of the protestors in the G20 had their rights taken away? By this I mean the legitimate protestors who followed the rules set out before the summit and protested peacefully.

But they weren't justified.

In fact this is why they were arrested.

The Liberals came under fire for using an obscure Second World War law originally designed to protect court houses to give police authority to stop and search people during the G20.

There are videos on youtube of people dressed up as black bloc being let past the police line by other police

the fact is police in this country have been caught impersonating members of the black bloc on a number of occasions.. they have a hand in starting these riots

Also most of the detained people were innocent, having broke no law other than a secret law that the liberals did not mention ..if anyone went near the fence they were arrested, I can't believe you are this fricking ignorant about this and you're from Toronto

If people can not live in an orderly society they should move elsewhere.
