Police arresting innocent bystanders for no reason
- Thread starter johnny
- Start date
A lot of people just wanted to go home...listening to John Downs report on AM640, he stated that young men in particular with bags were being arrested. Either your facts are fuzzy, or you're coming on this board to lie to others.The police are arresting people because they are known troublemakers, often with outstanding wants or warrants. Just 'cause you don't know the reason doesn't mean there isn't one.
But hey, don't let facts stand in the way of a good troll.
You have to be a complete idiot to be in that area today. Why would someone want to take a stroll down there on this particular weekend knowing the place is crawling with police. Protesters look like everyone, so how would the cops know who the badasses are.No youhaev your information wrong, the crowd detained at queen and spadina, were innocent bystanders. the wanted people and protesters were taken away immediately. the crowd was just released without charges. people are telling their stories of not being invloved and just being rounded up. now people like you are lumping these innocent people in with the violent people from yesterday.
This situation was totally illegal, and some answers are needed. detain 200 people for 5 hours with no access to legal counsel, under arrest for no reason. then all of a sudden let them go.
Violent protesters from yesterday, sure arrest them....normal people walkign around...WTF? Fucking pigs go fuck yourselves.
Everyone there deserves to be arrested for being a moron.
CP24 is doing an excellent job of covering this particular situation at Queen and Spadina.
Good point made by a kid on cp24, the police government and media are trying to lump all protesters and even bystanders into the same group...and associate them with the violence.
many people on here, when talkign abotu these innocent people being detained say...idiots deserve what they get...as if these people are the same ones that were involved in the violence yesterday.
Police dropped the ball on this one..Stephen Ledrew is flying off the handle a bit.
This was not LEGAL
"you cannot hold people against their will outside in the cold and then say we have an operational reason for that"
"you alowed people to break windows and torch cars then you take people walking home and hold them for 3 hours"
"the police are going to have some serious explaining to do"

The cops were criticized for being too lenient yesterday. Now to make up for it they are cracking down hard. Unfortunately, most of the violent acts occured yesterday. They should have exercised more presence yesterday, and less today, but they are trying to make up for their mistake.Why are police arresting people for no reason? some people seem to have just got caught up in, even journalists getting arrested for no reason.
how come they didnt arrest the idiots from yesterday doing all the damage?
alomst makes me wonder if they are using yesteerdays violence as an excuse to arrest anyone they want for no reason.
its like there are no laws there right now, how come the Charter gets thrown out...is it a Charter free zone right now?
arrested for no reason?
police blocking 200 people in, surrounding them? but yesterday police cars on fire and you dont see cops? seems very strange.
yes the people yesterday were idiots, the people getting arrested today seem like normal people....a little overkill mabey???
People have a right to go where they please...at most many are simply observing what is happening. Nothing wrong with that. The police cannot simply blocked off people from leaving and proceeded to make arrests...which is inflicting violence on many innocent people. The police have taken their violence to new levels.You have to be a complete idiot to be in that area today. Why would someone want to take a stroll down there on this particular weekend knowing the place is crawling with police. Protesters look like everyone, so how would the cops know who the badasses are.

Toronto is our city. Not the G20 delegates. Not the police. Not the protesters. Police have no right restrict the individual rights and freedoms of the citizens of this city - the police are here to serve us.
I find it funny (pathetic actually) that the majority here are so willing to give up their freedoms - and the freedoms of others - so easily.
Protesters who act violent make all protesters look bad.
Police officers who detain people without cause make all police officers look bad.
If you want to appear as morally superior, don't protest violently, and don't arrest people arbitrarily.

By trying to make up for their mistake yesterday, they have just made a huge mistake today. the police broke the law today and need to be held accountable.
think about it cops cars torched yesterday, windows broken and no police to be found, instead they detain 200 innocent harmless people. sammy katz shoke hands with the prime minister a couple weeks ago...now he is a security threat?
people walking home and detained for 5 hours in the pouring rain. no access to counsel not infromed of the reason for their arrest.
I could quoate the Charter here but we all know this was wrong without reading the Charter.
I am outraged....just put yourself in those peoples shoes.
that was a disgusting act by Police tonight

Usually the one's who start acting like badasses are the badasses. You can usually tell pretty quickly.You have to be a complete idiot to be in that area today.

Staff sgt Jeff Mcguire you are full of shit......reasonable grounds? legally?
go stand out in the rain for 5 hours, get a feel for what it was like.
bullshit explanation..oh there we go..."we re not perfect"..."we hope the public can support us"...................they know this is looking bad.....
disordely crowd?...it didnt look like it to me.
people were brought forward individulaly and told that they were under arrest? were they cautuoned.....no....
all lies by Sgt McGuire
arrested for no reason....not cautioned, no access to legal counsel
many serious breaches of charter rights.

McGuire "We did the best we could"
anytime someone tells you that, then something went wrong.
I would like to hear from Bill Blair on this. he sounded reasonable all weekend, really liketo hear from him about this. I actually have alot of respect for Bill Blair.
95% of all people arrested will be released without charges i imagine and probably another 3 % will have charges dropped...mabey 2% of the people arrested will actually get to court.
