Why don't cops give everyone a ticket for going 111 on the highway? Why don't they round up every single pedestrian on 17th who might be over the legal limit? Breaking the speed limit and being drunk in public are against the law. I guess things just aren't so black and white.
Apparently the OPP figured that keeping this a low-key demonstration as opposed to a riot or an armed standoff was probably the best course of action. Since it came to a peaceful conclusion yesterday I'd say they did the right thing.
