G20 Protesters Break Into RBS Building In London

As CNBC makes fun of the G20 "fair with jesters and jugglers" in London, things are, in reality, getting serious. Just out of Foxnews:

"Protesters reportedly broke into a Royal Bank of Scotland building during demonstrations against bank bailouts, and global capitalism in London Monday. The bank has been one of the biggest recipients of government assistance during the financial crisis. Several thousand demonstrators clogged the streets of London's financial district amid tight police security and have also targeted the Bank of England's headquarters."

Wonder how Erin Burnett will spin this into just more jolly frolicking along Piccadilly Circus. Then again, last thing Americans need to know or see, is that people everywhere else are angry, and may have had enough. Sphere: Related Content

More paranoia! Just keep spreading it! You're um, clearly not from these parts...a bunch of hooligans breaking windows does not qualify as serious, its something that happens every Sunday after most European football games...But ok if you want, the end is near! oh no! Come on...

In their fear people concede first discretionary choices, then their moral outrage, then the weak, then their wealth, then and finally their freedom.
