Protests against the G8 summit in Genoa last week erupted into violence when a sinister group known as the "blue bloc" split off from an infinitessimal minority of the paramilitary troops stationed to protect the delegates and went on a violent rampage that left one dead, many injured, and resulted in over a million dollars worth of damage to property.
Summit leaders gave each other rhetorical hand jobs while the mainstream media fawned over every pathetic, conniving word that oozed out of their sneering, contemptuous mouths. Meanwhile the blue bloc beat innocent people over and over again with sticks until their unconscious, bleeding bodies could no longer protest.
That is, when they weren't shooting them with guns and running them over with trucks.
Later, the well-organized bloc confiscated all evidence of their wrongdoing, which was really just a formality, since the papers had since gone back to reporting on golf tournaments. Computers, hard drives, audio recorders, and any other device that might be used to transmit evidence against the bloc were confiscated and destroyed. People in the vicinity were clubbed just for laughs.
The bloc charged one of its snipers with murder to send a message that those bloc officers with deadly weapons should wait until the cameras are confiscated before they begin shooting.
Poets buried their heads in their typewriters and cried for a language too beautiful to be barked from an officer's bullhorn or stamped into newsprint.
