The subject of the protest is not that relevant, because these groups always have some grievance. But if you're interested, they were protesting against, to quote the BBC, "free-market economic policies."

Beat-down Time
Few things bring me more joy than seeing hippie protesters being assaulted by police. This is what occurred in Chile today. The weapons of choice were tear gas (always a favorite) and water cannons. I saw some nightsticks, too, I think.

Here we have another example of folks who just do not study history. If they had they would know that the alternative to free market economies (communism/socialism) that have been tried have been miserable failures. But it sounds like you just enjoy the beat 'em down stuff. :)
ReplyDeleteWell, the ignorance is part of what makes it enjoyable, along with the arrogance and disregard for the law.
ReplyDeleteChris - are you my mother?
ReplyDeleteWell I'm not a snort! (Remember that book?) Yes, I am MacKenzie's mother, but I thought since I was commenting on Craig's post I should sign off as 'Chris' to avoid confusion. Not that I mind being most noted as MacKenzie's mother!!
ReplyDelete"Mom" is OK, since my mom doesn't comment here. But if you use "Chris", people won't know who you are, and won't think you read this just because you're Mac's mom.
ReplyDeletechris/mom confuses me with her logic sometimes...but I always like what she has to say!
