| 5. Not the fault of the Police |
|
After the march through the city most people hung out at Parliament Hill. Some groups (led by the anarchists) decided to confront the police barricade that kept us a block away from Shrubby. They pushed the barricade over and pushed the police line back about 100 feet.
At this point the cops did what they had to and called in reinforcements to hold their new position. After a 15 minute stand-off some in the crowd started throwing shit at the police.
The police ended up lobbing some tear gas into the crowd. To their credit, they only used what they had to use to disperse the crowd. A small scuffle ensued followed by a couple of arrests.
Pics are coming soon. After a short edit.
