It would be funny if these policemen were not agents provocateurs but in fact just really angry with the system, all the while claiming a salary from it.

I'd be shocked if they didn't use agent provocateurs to hijack/insite a protest. it's a fairly common tactic, but it's only news if they are caught.

Why would they want to start a riot though?
Identify the most volatile and aggressive protestors and remove them before they start a riot?  Like a miniature tension strategy.

Sounds pretty far-fetched to me.

I don't think riots are much like forest fires, where you can start (and quickly put out) a controlled burn.

It's not like this is cutting edge stuff Berkut.
I've given it serious thought. I must scorn the ways of my family, and seek a Japanese woman to yield me my progeny. He shall live in the lands of the east, and be well tutored in his sacred trust to weave the best traditions of Japan and the Sacred South together, until such time as he (or, indeed his house, which will periodically require infusion of both Southern and Japanese bloodlines of note) can deliver to the South it's independence, either in this world or in space.  -Lettow April of 2011

In order to jail enemies of the state.

So a fringe MP of the smallest british party allegedely heard someone talking about how they perhaps saw someone throw bottles who might or might not be cops who maybe were undercover.....SOMEONE CALL THE AUTHORITIES!!! :lol:

I have a hard time seeing them try to stir up trouble while being responsible for security at a G20 summit.  That sounds just too stupid to be true, even for the police.

But then the US military did use Siegebreaker to help protect Barack Hussein Obama so anything is possible.

0-2 on examples of the police intentionally citing riots.

Got any actual examples?

The news that the police have undercover officers in crowds is not exactly cutting edge, you know.

Do you think there's any chance of avoiding riots at any of those things that the professional protesters show up for?

I could be wrong but I am pretty sure not every economic summit has a riot.

Of course not - the riot is the entire point of the exercise for some of these dumbshits.

I like this twist though - show up, start a riot, then blame it on the cops, who of course are the Hated Authority anyway. I can see why this sort of things is irresistible to the Raz's and Shelf's of the world!

Please clarify your argument here.
