G20 in Toronto: Communists already out

With the G20 coming to Toronto, we’ve had our first major protest. The protesters occupied an Esso Station and blocked traffic – which is all fairly mild compared to what we are expecting. But the scariest thing is what they were chanting. According to Yahoo! News: They shouted “Stop the war, arm the poor, make [...]
