In the interest of their security, the general public is being kept apart from them. There is the WHOLE rest of the city to go protest or do whatever your little heart desires. Don't go to the fence or there will be trouble. When this fiasco is over, everyone can go back to their lives and find something else to complain about.

Sure, it's reasonable to ask people to stay away from the immediate viscinty of the summit site. But most of the protest is happening severl blocks, if not several km from the site. For instance on Esplanade, Yonge or Queen Street.
