There probably will not be as much Violence at this summit, but we can only hope.
The protesters oppose globalization and say the G-20 is not focusing on creating jobs or protecting social programs.
The protesters should see Obama As a leader for their cause of Socialism though !

SEOUL, South Korea -- Police have arrested four people who scuffled with riot police during anti-globalization rallies ahead of this week's Group of 20 summit, a police officer said Monday.
About 20,000 people rallied at a large plaza near Seoul City Hall on Sunday, just four days before South Korea hosts a two-day gathering of leaders from the G-20 advanced and developing economies.
The rally initially was peaceful, but some protesters scuffled with riot police who tried to prevent them from marching through nearby downtown streets. Riot police fired pepper spray at some protesters at the front of the crowd, forcing them back.
Four men were arrested during the scuffle and were under investigation Monday, a Seoul police officer said on condition of anonymity citing department policy. He gave no further details

Hundreds of demonstrators protesting the G-20 global economic summit in Toronto broke windows and set fire to some police cars during a noisy march near the site of the summit Saturday. At least 75 (E/N More like 150 ) people are in custody and police say there will be more arrests.
A column of thick black smoke rose from the burning police cars in a chaotic scene that included throngs of police in riot gear and many protesters. Police say some were anarchists, wearing black clothing, including masks.
Toronto Police Chief Bill Blair says his officers were pelted with rocks and bottles, and used teargas to control one large crowd.
He says the violence may not be over.
"I do not believe the individuals bent on vandalism and violence in our city are finished with their intent," Blair said. "And so we will remain vigilant, and we will be on the street all night and all tomorrow in sufficient numbers to deal with these individuals."

TORONTO (AP) — Police on heightened alert before a summit of world leaders stopped a car with a large container strapped to its roof and arrested the driver after finding gasoline canisters, a chainsaw, a cross bow, arrows and sledge hammers inside.
The vehicle was flagged because it looked suspicious and unsafe, police said, but there was no evidence that the car was related to the arrival of dignitaries this weekend in Canada's largest city.
"There's quite a various amount of items that, used by the wrong person at the wrong time, was enough that we made the arrest," said police Const. Hugh Smith, after the arrest.

Canada unveils arsenal for anti-G20 protests
The devices look harmless enough, like a large, home stereo speaker that can be strapped to an officer's chest. Protest groups say they should not be allowed because the sound can be turned to as loud as 146 decibels .
Another year , another big G20 riot .
I like this loud speaker tactic , they don't need to turn it up all the way , just to the the point that it makes the protesters really sick , like wanting to puke and have uncontrollable bowel movements !
Now that would be good fun.
Ontario (Reuters) - Canada on Thursday unveiled the arsenal it will use against protesters who get out of hand at two global summits later this month, promising riot police armed with guns, shields, Tasers and super-high-volume loudspeakers.
Toronto police said their new Long Range Acoustic Device would help them communicate with roaring protesters from as far as 250 meters (820 feet) away. When turned to full volume, the devices can emit enough sound to damage eardrums.
"This is not a weapon," said Constable Wendy Drummond, a spokeswoman for the Integrated Security Unit that will provide security for the two summits. "It is a communications tool. It may or may not even be used."
Security forces have bought four of the portable loudspeakers, also known as a sonic guns because the volume can be turned up to such levels they can be used as weapons.
The devices look harmless enough, like a large, home stereo speaker that can be strapped to an officer's chest. Protest groups say they should not be allowed because the sound can be turned to as loud as 146 decibels, or the equivalent of a firecracker exploding by your ear.

G-20 opponents, police clash on Pittsburgh streets
Yes ! Here we go again , The Annual Rioting of the G20 Summit !
Anarchists seem to be a Little less determined than usual , Rioting yes , but not going Full blown Apeshit .
AP....
PITTSBURGH — Police fired canisters of pepper spray and smoke at marchers protesting the Group of 20 summit Thursday after anarchists responded to calls to disperse by rolling trash bins and throwing rocks.
The march turned chaotic at just about the time that President Barack Obama and first lady Michelle Obama arrived for a meeting with leaders of the world's major economies.
The clashes began after hundreds of protesters, many advocating against capitalism, tried to march from an outlying neighborhood toward the convention center where the summit is being held.
The protesters banged on drums and chanted "Ain't no power like the power of the people, 'cause the power of the people don't stop."
What a Joke !
The marchers included small groups of self-described anarchists, some wearing dark clothes and bandanas and carrying black flags. Others wore helmets and safety goggles.
One banner read, "No borders, no banks," another, "No hope in capitalism." A few minutes into the march, protesters unfurled a large banner reading "NO BAILOUT NO CAPITALISM" with an encircled "A," a recognized sign of anarchists.
The marchers did not have a permit and, after a few blocks, police declared it an unlawful assembly. They played an announcement over a loudspeaker telling people to leave or face arrest and then police in riot gear moved in to break it up.
At Which they Ran like little bitches , and then cried " foul " When the police got a hold of them !

LONDON (Reuters) - Five people suspected of planning to join protests against the G20 summit in London on Thursday have been arrested after weapons were found during a raid on a house in southwest England, police said Monday.
The five, three men aged 16, 19 and 25 and two women aged 20, were arrested in the city of Plymouth between Friday and Sunday and are being held under counter-terrorism powers.
Police said their inquiries indicated there was "no religious agenda" to the investigation. Four of the suspects are British and one is thought to be an international student.
Thousands of officers are taking part in a huge security operation this week when world leaders arrive for the G20 summit on the financial crisis to be held on April 2.
Anarchists have threatened to bring chaos to the streets of the British capital. A police source told Reuters the five suspects were believed to be planning to take part in the protests.
"These arrests would appear to be isolated at this time," said assistant chief constable Sharon Taylor of Devon and Cornwall police.
"Those arrested people will remain in custody while further enquiries take place."
The investigation was launched after officers arrested a 25-year-old man in Plymouth Friday for spray-painting graffiti on a wall.
A search of his home led to the arrest of three others for drugs offences. Detectives later found a number of imitation firearms, improvised explosives made of fireworks and material "relating to political ideology."
The fifth man was arrested Sunday and all five were then detained under the Terrorism Act.

SCOTLAND YARD is to deploy officers armed with 50,000-volt Taser stun guns to deal with violent demonstrators planning to disrupt this week’s G20 summit in London.
The centrepiece of the security plan will be hundreds of officers from the Metropolitan police territorial support group, who are routinely armed with speedcuffs, extended batons and CS gas spray.
The Met confirmed yesterday that they will be supported by officers equipped with Tasers on stand-by should trouble break out.
“There will be an armed response vehicle element to this operation and [those officers] will be carrying Tasers,” said a spokeswoman.
The Met’s admission that Tasers could be used for the first time in the UK during riots came as protest groups claimed police had contacted them to warn that a day of protest in the City on Wednesday would be “very violent”.
