This is footage I took on sunday june 27 at G20 in Toronto. My sister and I were participating in a peaceful protest march. Everyone was singing and chanting, but absolutely no violence, and no one wearing bandanas or throwing things. We marched west on queen street, but our progress was blocked at spadina avenue. We didnt realize until it was to late that we we're divided from the main group and surrounded. By then it was to late. The cut I get over my left eye is from the unprovoked jab from a cops riot shield. What you dont see is the beating I got after they dragged me away... the charges we received... Breach of the Peace. Ironic.

  • they didn't get attacked they got arrested for protesting in the middle of the street.

  • @adamguy911 Ops, forgive my mistake, I am Australian. Well then we can probably thank that pseudo Christian Steven Harper, who has a lack of Christ consciousness, for aiding the spread of contemporary Fascism's & corruption in Canada.

  • @JezebelDecibel this is in canada...

  • Dam hippies......

  • How many Banks were in the security zone? Why are the banks helping the police with facial recognition technology?

  • Can't these protestors buy armour you can get this shit made in mass from China for real cheap.

  • Nice country, about time you people woke up.

  • Look at how much Po & Lice AKA police are surrounding the peaceful protest. Now can you just imaging if something happened like in Egypt.

    America is now worse that NAZI GERMANY in WW2

  • Adding to my previous comment... By law police were only allowed violence within 5 meters of the fence or when threatened with bodily harmed/attacked.

  • To be honest, I always wanted to be a police officer until the G20. Isn't this somewhat against like human rights, the civil code and everything else? They broke hundreds of laws and get surprised when people rebel against it? Some of the police officers dressed in black and set a police car on fire, and smashed a lot of windows. Police have always told me, never use violence because of words unless those words are a threat of bodily harm. Fucking hypocrites!
