Heres a quiz for those in the Democrat-media complex: Store windows smashed, police cruiser torched, police in riot gear being pummeled by bottles and other projectiles, over three dozen people arrested.
Is this a description of
(a) a Tea Party demonstration, or
(b) A G-20 summit protest?
You tell me:

TORONTO Black-clad demonstrators broke off from a peaceful protest and torched a police cruiser in the financial district and smashed windows in a shopping district after veering off from the planned protest route.
A group, dressed all in black, smashed the windows of a bank, a coffee shop and some stores before heading to an area where Canadas largest banks are headquarted, smashing restaurant windows there.

Police with shields and clubs earlier pushed back a small group ofprotesters who tried to head south toward the security fence around the site of the G-20 summit. Some demonstrators hurled bottles at police.
Oh, I get it. The protesters in general were peaceful. Its just that damn splinter group that messed up the whole thing! Thats just how the mainstream media described the violence at the Tea Parties.
Wait ... there was no violence at the Tea Parties. Never mind.

CBC showing scenes now. I saw a women student with two bespectacled students male and female running with apparent "collapsing" woman, staring into the cameras with a theatrical postures. Sort of like the Palestinians do when hit by Israeli police. Hamming it up.
Elsewhere, the police are LAYING IT RIGHT TO THEM. Teargas and maybe rubber bullets.
A vehicle on fire explodes in three minutes? Really? Not five, six, seven, eight, or nine minutes? Definitely not more than ten minutes, right? Your analysis is based on...what exactly?
Oh my. Something even less flattering than the boob belt. Did she hire Bjork’s designer or something?
You watch WAY too much TV. Very rarely does a vehicle on fire explode.
BTW, an EMPTY fuel tank is far more likely to explode, because it’s the FUMES that are flammable. You can put a cigarette out in a cup of gasoline.
A harsh Germanic voice yelled "you! quit that". It was a nearby worker. German fellow and very authoritative. Feelings were hurt and serves me right. Later I was told an electrician had been blinded permanently for doing just that. Burning out a nipple on a drum that was empty. Why that millwright told me to do that I will never know. I never asked.
If that's what you want to believe then feel free to. However it's best you also have the facts in place first. Here's a report in the Star on the car in question http://www.thestar.com/news/gta/torontog20summit/article/829587--the-fire-the-accused-and-the-cop?bn=1
