Credit: Reuters/Mark Blinch TORONTO (Reuters) - Police in Toronto fired tear gas on protesters for a second straight day on Sunday as new violence surrounding the G20 summit erupted and the arrest tally climbed above 500. World The latest clashes occurred as several hundred protesters marched on a temporary detention center for demonstrators arrested in riots on Saturday during which police used tear gas against the public for the first time ever in Canada's most populous city. A police spokeswoman confirmed that officers on Sunday fired what are known as muzzle blasts, or "individual applications of tear gas" that are used typically against individuals at close range. A Reuters witness in front of a former film studio in Toronto's port area where police are detaining protesters said he heard a loud "thunk" and saw clouds of smoke billow before police charged, scattering the crowd. The weekend violence started on Saturday afternoon after groups of masked anarchists broke away from a larger, peaceful demonstration against the Group of 20 summit of rich and emerging economies, which ends on Sunday. Protesters, many dressed in black gear, smashed windows of downtown stores and banks and torched police cars in a protest that police finally brought under control with tear gas and mass arrests. "What we're prepared for today is more of what we saw yesterday," a police spokesman said. "We'd like to see demonstrations remain peaceful." 'BUNCH OF THUGS' After a day when police admitted losing control of a violent and fast-moving crowd, the arrests came fast on Sunday. Among those detained, for charges ranging from mischief to assaulting police, were four people who climbed through the sewer system and emerged near the lock-down area where world leaders were attending the summit. Police said they were urgently sealing sewer access near the zone. A "large number" of people were detained in a raid at the University of Toronto's downtown campus, and police said they seized weapons, including bricks, rocks and sticks. "What we saw yesterday ... is a bunch of thugs that pretend to have a difference of opinion with policies and instead choose violence in order to express those so-called differences of opinion," Dimitri Soudas, spokesman for Canadian Prime Minister Stephen Harper, told a news conference. Anti-G20 groups started demonstrating in Toronto before the summit, which followed a smaller meeting of Group of Eight industrial nations in a resort town north of Toronto. The security bill is set to come in at about $1 billion. Such international meetings have been the target of protest groups for years, including demonstrations that disrupted trade talks in Seattle in 1999.

That’s how much the next major space telescope would cost. Dang, and they blow it all away on security for a few days. nkirv Report As Abusive Jun 27, 2010 12:50am EDT 1 billion could give most workers a job retraining program for free so the work force could be more competitive. But this is how developed countries are squandering money. “Security”, “Terrorism”, wars, no bid contracts….meanwhile China and India are building infrastructure and education its workforce. bangsplat Report As Abusive Jun 27, 2010 1:26am EDT Or maybe if these hooligans did not destroy public property and act like citizens of some failed African state, we need not spend so much on security. What are they trying to achieve? What message are they sending out? Throw them all in jail I say. I won’t complain about taxes then. DougAnderson Report As Abusive Jun 27, 2010 1:41am EDT Though the story alludes to this fact, I hope people realise that the vast majority of people protesting promoted their causes and expressed their views in a peaceful, organised, and civil manner. The vandalism and violence was committed by a small minority of people who do not realise that their actions do a disservice to those who are sincerely committed to drawing attention to serious issues and who work hard to create positive change in the world. It is sad that so many people use the actions of these hooligans to justify their apathy or indifference to the G20, and the political and economic systems and relationships that they support and represent. The point of the protests are precisely to challenge this apathy and are carried out with the hope that at least some people will be moved to ask questions about the G20 and whether they support what it stands for – or at the very least, whether spending $1 billion dollars to bring a small group of world leaders together is justifiable. BIsaac Report As Abusive Jun 27, 2010 2:12am EDT What obvious lies! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gAfzUOx53Rg Rexter Report As Abusive Jun 27, 2010 3:27am EDT The post above me is an obvious lie! The youtube video is from 2007! Max_neptune Report As Abusive Jun 27, 2010 4:24am EDT I have little doubt that in a few months, if not sooner, some of the ‘hooligans’–usually the most aggressive ones inciting the violence–will be unmasked as paid provocateurs. Sadly, they are often police officers who incited violence that endangered the public and other officers. We certainly saw this in Seattle. It has, unfortunately, been the case elsewhere as well. PolatGuney Report As Abusive Jun 27, 2010 8:45am EDT The coverage on the protests is horrible. The media needs to give us the full story. WHAT ARE THEY PROTESTING ABOUT? Is it nuclear, is it banking, etc. What seems to be the drawing the biggest concern for these protestors? Come on, get with the program! You’re limiting our free speech by not reporting the real story. Plutocracy Report As Abusive Jun 27, 2010 10:18am EDT I can’t stand that so many people are saying “Good thing we spent a billion on security because the anarchists are proving that we need it”. I’m absolutely positive there would not be nearly as much violence, protesting, fury, and damages if only the summit DIDN’T cost a billion bucks. Also, note that the police, in many ways, are provoking damages, by abandoning their cars in crowds, and allowing the rioters to run free before coming after them: http://www.rabble.ca/news/2010/06/g20-police-let-rioters-run-amok-and-then-struck-back-hard-all-activists brithans Report As Abusive See All Comments (17) Add a Comment *We welcome comments that advance the story directly or with relevant tangential information.
