Riot police have arrested more than 150 G20 protestors in Toronto, after an angry crowd started burning cars and smashing windows.

Around ten thousand demonstrators have taken part in the rallies.

1. I really don't understand G20 protesters.

They make no sense to me, when they do these things.

Their message, (if one bothers to listen to their arguments), also shows they have less than adequate education in economics, and seem to be living somewhere in the 1800's.

True, job losses in one nation due to a world economy are devastating to certain groups here and there.

True, it is hard to get enough help for under-developed nations, and too many rich are protected.

But what good is rioting? I'm really wondering who gets involved in all this G20 protesting, and why, when the USA has two good and ugly capitalist inspired wars going on in the world to protest against.
