US deploys aircraft carrier to South Korea

We must keep insisting on thorough investigation of G20 attempt on human rights in Canada and also push for discussion on POLICE POWERS in Canada in general.
We must not lose our freedom.
We must show that we do not accept such a state of affairs.
We do have Rights.
Human Rights.
What we observed and experienced during G20 in Toronto was a TEST.
The question was "How will public and media(some) react?
Will people give up some of their rights?
Will public buy Oppression and Terror?
It was Experiment and Attempt.
Attempt on our Rights.
...and our Freedom.
We must voice our dissatisfaction.
We must hold hearings.

It's almost spiritual if you think about it.

Reminder for Governing Body: Not in Canada, Mr. Premier. Not in Canada.

Infinite Jest: State Terror From Nixon to Obama

by element115

As Arthur Silber pointed out so ably out the other day, the high and horrendous crimes that the world's governments will openly commit -- and admit to, if not brag about -- in their push for loot and power are by no means the full record of their depredations. This is, as Silber rightly says, "an absolute certainty given the testimony of history." Indeed. For while we look on, shocked and awed, at the public parade of horrors rolling by each day, there are foul deeds afoot which will only come to light -- in dribs and drabs, in shards and splinters --after many decades. (And of course this does not include the countless crimes of elitist power that will never surface, that lie forever buried and rotting with their victims.)

Toronto Police Chief Lies Again To Frame Protesters

by element115

Toronto Police Chief Bill Blair has been caught lying again in an effort to justify the brutal police response metered out against G20 protesters and journalists this past weekend, after it emerged that weapons he presented to the media as evidence of criminals planning to wreak havoc on the city were in fact toys seized from a man who was on his way to a fantasy role-playing game and had nothing to do with the G20 summit.

by element115

Why would Iran be a threat to Poland? What happens to US credibility when the Secretary of State makes such a stupid statement? Does Hillary think she is fooling the Russians? Does anyone on earth believe her? What is the point of such a transparent lie? To cover up an act of American aggression against Russia?

Ontario Amputee Has His Artificial Leg Ripped Off By Police And Is Slammed In Makeshift Cell During G20 Summit

July 5, 2010 by element115

Accusing him of resisting arrest, they pulled his walking sticks away from him, tied his hands behind his back and ripped off his prosthetic leg. Then they told him to get up and hop, and when he said he couldn’t, they dragged him across the pavement, tearing skin off his elbows , with his hands still tied behind his back. His glasses were knocked off as they continued to accuse him of resisting arrest and of being a “spitter,” something he said he did not do. They took him to a warehouse and locked him in a steel-mesh cage where his nightmare continued for another 27 hours.

More than 1,000 arrests were made relating to the G20 summit and multiple reports have emerged alleging peaceful demonstrators or even bystanders were caught up in the mass arrests — most notably, at the Esplanade’s Novotel Hotel on Saturday, where demonstrators tried to stage a sit-in, or at Queen St. and Spadina Ave., where a large crowd was boxed in and detained for several hours in the rain.

G20 reporters filed complaints to police watchdog

by element115

According to Miller's complaint --> "So you think you're a journalist. You won't be a journalist after we bring you to jail," the 29-year-old recounted an officer saying to her in her complaint. "You're going to be raped. We always like the pretty ones. We're going to wipe the grin off your face when we gang bang you. We know how the Montreal girls roll."

According to Rosenfeld's complaint --> grabbed by two officers, punched in the stomach and back and repeatedly kneed in the ribs. He yelled to them that he was not resisting arrest and that he was a journalist. He was arrested for breach of the peace and taken to the detention centre in the city's east end at midnight where he stayed until his release 18 hours later with no charges.

According to Lisa Walter's complaint --> officers mocked her, saying her credentials were "fake," questioned whether she was a man and the sergeant who ordered her arrest called her a "f---ing dyke" and "a douche bag." Her medication was withheld from her for several hours.

Civil liberties in Toronto's streets

June 29, 2010 by element115

The protests in Toronto during the G20 summit weekend led to the arrests of about 900 people, a Canadian record.
Amnesty International Canada has called for a review of the security measures introduced at the G20 summit in Toronto.
The Canadian Civil Liberties Association on Tuesday released its preliminary report on G20 security, titled "A Breach of Peace." The CCLA says over the course of the weekend, detained people were not allowed to speak to a lawyer or family members. They also said people were subjected to arbitrary searches and peaceful protest were broken up with force. The CCLA has also called for a review of public order policing in Canada.

Police mislead public on security fence law

Toronto's police chief is admitting there never was a five-meter rule that had people fearing arrest if they strayed too close to the G20 security perimeter.

All weekend there were reports of police stopping people throughout downtown Toronto -- often in areas nowhere near the G20 zone -- demanding identification and to search bags and backpacks.

Ontario won't call public inquiry into G20 chaos

by element115

..."no inquiry is needed"

But Ontario’s New Democrats say there are “far more questions than there are answers”.

“It’s unbelievable so many crimes could be committed in the presence of so many police officers,” said New Democrat MPP and justice critic Peter Kormos, referring to the “black bloc” protesters who ran amok despite a security tab of almost $1 billion.

An inquiry should make Toronto Police Chief Bill Blair “come clean” on what went wrong, Kormos added. “Who was calling the shots?”

When the women requested water, Robichaud says an officer within earshot replied, "prisoners don't get water, prisoners don't get air—keep that door closed."

The group's accounts of conditions inside the detention center are ones of austerity, antagonism, suffering, confusion, and disorganization.

We were fed water and given stale buns with margarine and 1 slice of processed cheese only after begging, and pleading for it. Almost everyone I spoke to was DENIED their phone call. I have badge numbers of police officers who denied our phone calls, denied us the use of bathroom facilities and even denied giving us their badge numbers.

Protest against G20 police tactics

by element115

More than 1,000 loud but peaceful Torontonians – furious at police tactics, the G20 and seeing their city hijacked – converged on Toronto Police headquarters on College Street late Monday afternoon. Parents, businessmen, protesters and grandparents chanted and drummed in front of dozens of police officers before marching through downtown and converging on Queen’s Park for a dance party.

“Whose city?” they yelled, walking down streets that days ago had become scenes of tense and often violent confrontations with the police now flanking them on bikes.

“Our city!”

Rosenfeld describes the confrontation as follows: “An officer came up to me, looked at my ID, my alternative media centre press pass and said: ‘This isn’t a legitimate press pass. Put him under arrest!’”

According to the freelancer, at that point he “was immediately jumped and beaten” as the same “officer grabbed my arm, ripped it behind my back.”

“I was punched in the stomach to make me go down to the ground. I was being hit in the ribs.”

“All the time I was saying ‘I am not resisting arrest. I am a journalist. Why are you beating me?’”

The attack was witnessed firsthand by several observers, including Steve Paikin, the well-known broadcaster and author, and host of the nightly TV Ontario news programme, The Agenda.

Police Provocateur Wrecks Cruiser G8/G20 Toronto

On June 26 around 17h15 a police provocateur wrecks one of two cruisers parked by the police at Queen just east of Spadina. The drivers of the cruisers were escorted away by riot cops. The cruiser that was eventually burned was parked on a spot that police had previously demarcated with orange pylons ! Police were within 100 yards of the cruiser and there were no anarchists present. The police provocateur fled when confronted by two peaceful protesters who questioned his actions.

Look at 1:30 when the guy just reaches in and changes the siren tone. Are the controls so simple that someone with no experience could immediately recognize how to do that?
