3. Yeah I think there is a lot of that going on

Interesting interviews from everyone that was on front lines about the Molotov cocktails...

5. I think they need a bit of Occupy to go with the tear gas sandwiches.

I wish I could afford to go.

4. Nothing now. All night there've been the occasional bangs, and scattered arrests.

People in the crowd taunt the cops, then six or ten cops will leave the greater group and grab a protester or two and drag them away.

Others in the crowd have thrown things then run, but that's not as bad as the asshole cops who are aiming shotguns and rifles toward the crowd.

The area is down by the store that was burned out 9 days ago. It's a war zone.
