Too Many Police?

It's nice to see someone try to take the problem of security last weekend seriously.
And it is nice to have someone speak who vaguely understands the nature of the problems faced:

When the police car was stopped and attacked at King and Bay streets there was a cordon of police just in the south side of the interesection. The complaint was that they did nothing. Of course they did nothing. If they had moved even 5 feet forward to confront the Black Bloc attacking and defacing the cruiser, the crowd would have overwhelmed them and raced down to the security fence. The same could be true for the incident at Spadina and Queen.

I have zero respect for the whiners who have not got past the first visceral reactions to Saturday.
