The police HARDLY have to try. The professional rent-a-mob that makes
the g8 protest circuit is comprised of the same crowd of hard-core
Stalinists and Marxist, watermelon Greenies, and unwashed thugs
calling for "direct action", i.e. starting riots and breaking shit.

Good. Maybe we should start taking lessons from the Japanese and start
inspecting some of the human filth that tries to come in our country
on a regular basis. And no, I'm not referring to illegal alien
Mexicans. While I strongly oppose illegal immigration, the Mexicans,
unlike the protest kooks, are at least willing to work for a living.

It makes common sense to assume that a person who has a record of
participating in mob violence at these demonstration isn't going to
Japan to visit Buddhist temples and shop on the Ginza. They are merey
on the way to stir up shit. If the Japanese Immigration authorities
are rounding up people at Narita and sending them back to the States,
good for them! As a law-abiding citizen who has traveled to Japan
dozens of times on both military and private business for over 25
years, the LAST thing I want to see is a filthy anarcho-hippie playing
the "Ugly American" and breaking shit. The only thing I hope for is
that they send them back on a United or American flight. As a member
of both Northwests and JAL's frequent flyer programs, I would hate to
have to sit next to one of these losers for 11 hours if I'm
unfortunate enough not to get my business class upgrade.

As to be expected, given that they are professional rioters. At least
they bathe more frequently than the usual US-EU anarcho-asshole, I
will say that much.

In case you haven't figured out, the Japanese aren't big on political
correctness. If you're there to be violent, they group you with your
own kind.
