like at the G20 meeting with firebombs and axes

You do realise that those were four people of thousands protesting. I think you'll find the real issues with violence and illegal action took place on the sid eof the government. I'm not for a moment saying that everybody was entirely peaceful or innocent, they weren't. but many of the police officers removed ID numbers, used hugely disproportionate force on several protesters and killed a man who wasn't even protesting. One police officer posted a blog stating how he would love to beat in hippies. It seems to me that somehow this does not seem appropriate behaviour for a force trying to keep the protests peaceful, not stop them all together. In fact the only real noticeable criminals, guilty of vandalism, were these guys and they didn't get beaten in. Seems unfair to me.
