So far two men have been charged with obstructing police and a 60-year-old woman has been charged with indecent exposure.

Scotland Yard said 10 police officers suffered minor injuries during a demonstration in Parliament Square yesterday.

Protesters however suffered a lot worse, not to mention the children wounded and murdered by bombs dropped on them by Bush-Brown led wars - who the police were protecting.

Obviously if they had just let everyone march like was planned then it wouldn't of happened. Maybe they will learn from this lesson, maybe they won't.

I wonder how many of these people who "became violent" actually are plants by the police to goad the others or to make them look bad. They did it in the 60's man. :0) why shouldn't they be doing it again?!

THanks and noted!

TY, I think Kathy said it all.

That's a very self-controlled and peaceful crowd. An excellent example of Gandhian tactics and the spiritual approach that is needed to win the battle we are fighting without joining in the ancient tradition of rebellions which kill more people than the evil empires.

"I wonder how many of these people who "became violent" actually are plants by the police to goad the others or to make them look bad. They did it in the 60's man. :0) why shouldn't they be doing it again?!"

YOU SAID IT, Hanna; they did it in the '60's, in the '70's, in the '80's, in the '90's......... in the WTO "Battle of Seattle" in 1999 {I was there and saw it myself!}.
If you are in a Peace Group planning anything, and anyone suggests anything bordering on violence or property destruction, YOU MAY COUNT ON IT, THEY ARE A POLICE PLANT.
DO NOT MAKE THE IDIOT MISTAKE OF FOLLOWING THEIR ADVICE, just because it sounds "cool" and "real revolutionary". YOU WILL BE PLAYING RIGHT INTO THEIR HANDS, doing exactly what the Police Powers WANT you to do!!!

THEY ARE PLANNING SIMILAR VIOLENT INFILTRATION TACTICS FOR DEMONSTRATIONS PLANNED AT THE DEMOCRATIC PARTY CONVENTION in August.
REPEAT, DO NOT, NEVER, FALL FOR SUCH POLICE PROVOCATEUR TACTICS.

Such tactics REALLY hurt the movement -- not only hurt the "image" of the movement; but, they give an EXCUSE for identified "leaders" and INNOCENT PEOPLE to be arrested and brutalized.
The Police Provocateurs either NEVER get arrested, as in the WTO "Battle of Seattle"; or, they get arrested to "look plausible" and immediately released without charge, to fade back into anonymity.

BE ON THE CONSTANT LOOKOUT FOR SUCH TACTICS.
These Police Provocateurs, naturally, will look like you and talk like you. It is in their ADVOCACY OF VIOLENCE that you will recognize them! {And, even if the person advocating violence or property destruction is NOT a Police Agent by any chance, it is a FOOL'S CHOICE to follow such advice!!!}
