Why don't we send these heavily armed IDIOTS to
Afghanistan and see how well they do there? I will be the first at the airport to watch them come back in body bags!! It's easy to pick on innocent civillians when you are heavily armed with lots of backup against unarmed and untrained civilians.
Metro Cops are cowards in uniforms!!
Thank you CBC and the Fifth Estate for having the courage to broadcast this. I am sad and angry and feel powerless to do anything. As a community we have a chance to chnage things and hopefully this will be the start of a movement.
Where in these shots did you see police restoring the peace? Please tell me. m,ay be I wasn't looking at the same show.
I saw 'You Should Have Stayed at Home' for the first time last night and was appalled at what I learned - for the first time in my life I was ashamed to be a Canadian. The video that was shown and the testament of those interviewed showed a side of this country that I never knew existed. It's the kind of thing we expect in countries with dubious human rights reputations and police-state mentalities. Although there may have been 'fear' of violent protests, none of that was evident in the videos shown. We saw only peaceful groups handled with shocking and unwarranted force and intimidation, both on the streets and while in detention. There should be national outrage regarding these actions and justice needs to be served to those responsible in the name of those who suffered the injustices.
All this anger and attention directed toward a few police officers who may have gone too far in their attempts at bringing peace to an obviously dangerous situation, should instead be directed toward the vandals and criminals who brought about this situation. The cops should be thanked for a job well done. Peace was restored.
I have watched "should have stayed at home" a couple of times now on TV and the web, I am disgusted by the brutal force that was used on innocent protesters. We as Canadians have the right to voice our concerns and stand for what we believe in and thats just part of what makes our country. If we really are the land of the free then why were these people detained and cornered like cattle to be treated unequal and not as Canadians. Every time I have watched this I see more and more that stands against what we have been taught and to believe in. My faith in the police/government is not on solid ground anymore, how can you trust something/someone that says you can speak/voice your concerns and ask questions but then be beat for it or locked up. This is not the Canada that I have growen up with. This is a disgrace and black mark on the Canada and the police/government as a whole. I can only hope that the country not just Toronto will be able to move past this disgrace it brought to us all across this country and our Canadian Charter or Rights and Freedom.
I think that the group of sleeping students roused from their beds in the middle of the night were DEFINITELY criminals. Of course not one of these 'criminals' were convicted in a court of law. INNOCENT until proven guilty, not the other way around. Thanks for bringing the Foxs News mentality to Canada.
that was a an embarrassing piece of journalism that I have seen in quite a while. Are you begging these people to go after the police? Then you can get another story. These people were criminals and if they were if in need of our police they would be crying the same song. Brutal. Give our cops a break!
I am sick of seeing the police investigate the police, its like asking a drug addict to rat out on a drug trafficer, lets get real, the police force is a brotherhood. they will not find thier brothers guilty of anything, look at the rcmp beating of the guy in b.c. of course they were guilty but the brotherhood did there best to wash it under the carpet, look at the g-20 what a bunch of thugs, and the chief of police defending them.If you are going to swear to protect society lets start by cleaning up the brotherhood and have incidentances with police investagated by non- police personal, Have a independent board and not ex-police on the board. You can see all the evindence of the g-20, the brutilty, thugs (police) abusive beyond reason and yet they deny any wrong doing, get real.
Over the course of my thirty-five years I have gone from the belief that police, law enforcement if you will, what were once members who upheld the law, serve and protect, have through discourse and time, through quantity recruitment as opposed to quality recruitment, become some of the most feared members of our society.
This evening after reviewing Gillian Findlays report, The Fifth Estate, I must believe that Canada must change its constitution to allow citizens to bare arms for protection against police. If such cowards and con-artists as Sgt. Bill Blair continue to facilitate this kind of destruction to Canadian Democracy and Canadian Citizens, it must be time to amend our constitution for the right to bare arms.
For even the criminals behave less sadistic as these so called officers!
What is most disheartening is the fact that a year later, the vast majority of Canadians have been successfully distracted from the reality of what happened at the G20. Justice = Just Ice.
I find it interesting that the behaviour of the G20 police is similar to the rioters gang mentality of Vancouver at the Stanley Cup. The irony is, of course, the reversal of who is the authority. It is time for the police to admit and accept that they behaved badly, like rioters.
The buck stops with Miller, McGuinty, Harper, Blair. They all thanked and congratulated the police forces on the wonderful job they did. Not one of them has apologized or retracted their statements. Miller's gone. Get rid of the rest of them.
Go Eric Go. I'm with you. they are in for themselves! Maybe they should get the damn crap bet out of them.
Many policemen are simply toughs with guns protected by law to release their aggressive nature on people, this video demonstrates it.
Too bad there is so little we can do in this "free society" to prevent it!
I never thought I would be brought to this but my relatively tame experience with suburban police laid a foundation of hatred for the profession and this G20 fiasco has solidified it into a tower of absolute disdain and rage. You will never find me pay any undue respect to any officer of the law. It'll take a whole lot of wonderful work for me to give them the respect I demand from and give to my fellow human beings. The term Pig has now entered my vocabulary.
Looks like something that might happen in (insert current country where people are not allowed to protest here), not Canada!
I am an ashamed to admit I am Canadian after watching this. It does not look any better than Kent State, the Civil Rights Movement And Soweta riots. I admire the Japanese right now during this Tsunami and earthquake, notice there is no looting, or violent crime happening? I am ashamed to admit, we, us Canadians would not be comparable to the Japanese but to the Americans. Sad but true and the behavior of our police confirms it. Shame on us.
To all the critics: Do you have any idea what it's like to watch your only child being dragged like that?
Is there any behavior that would warrant that kind of treatment? It's my son this time; it will be your child next.
A brief version of this video should lead the national news every night. This is what corporate feudalism is bringing to Canadians.
I totally believe that the police force were told to do whatever they deemed necessary to control the people on the streets, whether justified or not, whether peaceful or not. The troublemakers were probably planted by the police or powers that be to disrupt the peaceful protests in order to justify their overhanded and ourtrageous behaviour in spite of the right to peaceful assembly. This country is more and more becoming a police state and anyone that thinks we live in a democracy should get their head out of the sand. Ignorance really is bliss.
I thank all the people who were present on the streets of Toronto on the days of the G-20 summit. I stand beside you and your beliefs of peaceful protest and activism. No attempt to Serve and Protect the public was given by the Toronto Police Force. A blatant lack of integrity and awareness was displayed by our government for our Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedom.
