Peaceful Protest Over Tar Sands Takes a Violent Turn in Burlington, Vt.
• http://www.commondreams.org, Common Dreams staffProtesters created a "human oil spill" over the possibility that tar sands oil from western Canada might be shipped across Vermont, New Hampshire and Maine.
"It's clear the governors and premiers are meeting to talk about trade policy, energy and infrastructure," said Avery Pittman, spokeswoman for the protest groups. "They're definitely prioritizing profits and money-making over the needs of the people or the impact these proposals will have on us."

These people should have been arrested for blocking a public street. The first does not allow this IMHO. BUT the PIGS were way out of line using lethal force (rubber bullets have killed) against a peaceful people......
Couldn't you at least find this story on a site other than a liberal puke site where no one with a brain is allowed to post? This is insulting....
