8. I think that this might affect future G20 summits in the EU

I saw a DU poster earlier today that made think about this, whether or not it was true.

The username had something to do with protesting
They described themselves as well traveled
Had recently passed through Portland's airport; a protest hotspot
Had airport security issues

And the last thing which triggered me 😜

Did not like putting their Rolex in the TSA bin.

They are probably not an anarchist or instigator, but I thought how hard could they be to track if they entered a country which required visas, meaning not the EU if you are coming from the EU. I highly doubt that anarchists and instigators are locals. They travel the world and protest. They means that they are probably being profiled.

A change could to have the G20 in a country with a visa requirement for EU residents.

The next G20's are in Argentina, Japan and Saudi Arabia.

Watch Saudi Arabia.

I would bet on a lot ending up on no fly lists for the rest of their lives after that.
