That last statement about waiting for the riot shields & beating skulls in scares the crap out of me. They've basically admitted (whether it's the group or just one person) that they arean't leaving without a scene. Basically saying "unless you beat my skull in, I'm not leaving".
If these protesters had two brain cells to rub together they'd agree to leave, they'd issue a press release to the media saying "We've been heard and we are going to pack up at X Time and will be releasing a closing statement at that time"
At least they could leave with their heads held high that they were in fact, heard, but they seem insistant on taking the scorched earth approach instead.

It's pretty clear they're looking for a physical confrontation from police and bylaw officers. Any shred of credibility will be lost and they'll end up looking like a bunch of idiots in the eyes of citizens.
They should be saying to themselves that we did our best and now it's time to close shop and move on and occupy a job. have to wonder what their parents think about their actions.
