What better way to ignore the message of the real protestors than by painting them all with the same hooligan anarchist brush??

That's the intention of the anarchists...don masks, black uniforms, throw projectiles at police and burn stuff then disappear back into the crowd. They want police to deploy gas and whatever else so the general crowd gets gassed or soaked, then the general crowd gets pissed at the police. It's a no win situation for police. And yes they do go hand pick protesters to arrest, not sure if you remember APEC in 97, but they did a snatch and grab job on one of the main protest organizers, his name escapes me right now.
The police have let the real protesters protest, the morons dressed in black with masks ruin it for everyone.
