| The radio sez DC police have rounded up over 500 anarchokiddies protesting the existence of the World Bank and the IMF. Charges include marching without a permit and property damage. Some of those arrested have been complaining that the coppers haven't been according them kid gloves treatment — the sound bite said Poopsie had been sitting in handcuffs for over two hours and hadn't been allowed to go potty... Pity the poor anarchokiddies, who have nothing more important to do with their tiny, pointless lives... UPI's caption to the foto: D.C. police surround and arrest a group protestors in downtown Washington on Sept. 27, 2002. Demonstrators chained themselves together, set tires on fire, broke windows and harassed police with false 911 calls in an effort to shut down the nation's capital as financial ministers from around the world began a weekend meeting at the World Bank. Approximently 300 out of an estimated 500 protestors where arrested early in the day. Chris Corder/UPI |
