Organizers of an anti-free-trade protest in Halifax are blaming the media for the violence. According to the organizers, violence was the only way to bring media attention to their cause.
As usual, these groups refuse to accept responsibility for their actions, and the organizer refused to condemn his peers, that were vandalizing buildings and attacking the police
....organizer Pierre Blais says dozens of protesters that hurled paint balls and bottles at buildings and police on Friday weren't part of his group, but he doesn't condemn their actions.
It is time for the judiciary to apply stiff prison sentences to anyone convicted of committing violent acts during a protest, but knowing the weak justice system that we have in Canada, I am not holding my breath.
