Anarchopanda takes 'pandaction' against Montreal bylaw

[Sal]

Anarchopanda, the Montreal student protest mascot, has launched a fundraising campaign to fight a controversial bylaw that bans masks during protests and requires demonstrators to submit an advanced itinerary to police.
The campaign, dubbed “Pandaction,” has raised $11,492 so far through the popular crowdfunding website Indiegogo.
Last week, police confiscated Anarchopanda's head for several days under bylaw P-6.
According to the Pandaction campaign website, the money will be used to help fight against bylaw P-6 and the application of a secion of the Quebec Highway Safety Code, which some protesters believe has been misused in order to put an end to the demonstrations.

Should protesters be able to cover their face? I think not.

Do the police wear riot masks? Do they hide behind shields? Do they use weapons against protesters?

Just about every protest that I have participated in or have witnessed over the past 50 years, the violence was instigated by the police. Toronto G8/20 was a shining example. They did not attack those causing damage because they were agent provocateurs on the police payroll. This BS has been escalating since the 70s. Unfortunately, the police force and the government are not your friends. We do not live in a democracy and Walt Disney has no scruples.
