riots in toronto: the G20









Photos taken during the g20 in Toronto this past weekend.

-most if not all of the damage was done by the black bloc- a protesting/riot group that stormed the Toronto streets leaving police confused, and ultimately arresting many peaceful protesters, making themselves look like fools and trying to put a reason behind the billion dollar price tag.
-over 600 arrested over the 3 days. 2 cops cars set fire too, 2 others smashed.

wild. multiple reports show cops beating down the protesters, their tactics seemed very erratic and chaotic, leaving tourists, journalists, photographers, and peace full protesters cornered in streets or up against walls for hours.

below, the protesters about to parade before being blocked at all sides.
