How do you tell who is who? TV play by play. Riots are no different than canadian Idol. If you don't watch it goes away fast because it doesn't sell soup,pit stick and potty dancers.

Don't watch. Don't comment. Don't get angry. If you do the rioters have won before the riot starts.

If they were plants they wouldn't need the ninja outfits. These black bloc melonheads were leftard fascists, plain and simple.
Fact - Fascists are rightards. Ninja outfits hide their true identity. They wouldn't want to be able to identify their provocateurs, now would they?

If there weren't 50,000 'tourists' lining the streets to watch, maybe this wouldn't be a spectacle, either. But we all get our jollies, just like the riots when Montreal wins in the NHL playoffs. In the end, if a few people get the crap beat out of them by the police, who cares? It's a form of mixed martial arts, it's pure entertainment.

Get waterboard room ready. It'll be a busy day!
Finally time for a shower?

Great marketing if you ask me. Can you rent concession space? There is no shortage of morons who'll buy $5 water.

And therefore we are just as guilty for reading this thread.
Watching hand picked sound and image bites designed to elicit an emotional response is a little different than discussing how it makes you feel. I was in the advertising game for a few decades. News is designed so that you attach certain emotional feelings around the products that sponsor them. Teams of psychologists are paid big bucks to get inside your head to create a need for crap you don't need. The TV is just one big advertising campaign designed to make you feel that without the crap they are selling, you cannot possibly be happy, safe or secure, all of which is utter BS. The NEWS is designed to sell products, nothing else. It certainly has nothing to do with informing you or purveying the truth.

Send the bill to those who built the arena. next time don't build a riotorium and nobody will show up.
I think the whole arena was set up as a training ground for things to come. Why else the billion dollar price tag. This is a test to see how much they can hood wink the public into letting them take away their personal freedoms and establish marshal law. Because if and when the public wakes up to what is really going on, there will be major riots in the streets and they will have the mechanism in place to implement their plan.

They already know how far they can go. that why this has been advertised and promoted identical to a WWE event. If they added lasers flashing through the tear gas cannisters and thrash music this could easily be sold pay pr view.
