[QUOTE=U.S.S.R;43640342]Their shields are built out of a stronger, less flexible material. The stuff the protesters are banging on is more like corrugated iron or something.
Plus, they have things like gas, stun bombs (fireworks aren't really as good when it comes to accuracy and concussive impact), and various types of guns.[/QUOTE]
Yeah, but the people have nothing, and so they will win.
The police also have more organisation. The huge shield walls they do look terrifying

This stream has better ground cameras now.
Although by now that wall of smoke has been up so long they could have deployed mech-warriors by now for all we know.

i found the phalanx pretty intimidating
Tires are coming in numbers, and it seems like the actual rioters are coming in now after a nice nap.
more people are coming gradually in and the smoke is thick as ever
this first person camera is so in there, Right in the chanting holy shit.
Lots of protesters wearing nose filters, goggles, and helmets.
Protestors even cleaning up garbage laying around, It's so weird.
[QUOTE=CubeManv2;43640346]Don't know if you guys see, but alot of the protesters are wearing hockey gear or other sports gear. Some of them are ready to rock.[/QUOTE]
It's time to shine

They aren't there to fuck shit up, really commendable.
Told you guys it was a clock tower.

Almost like spontaneous collective action is legitimate or somethin.
Where are they getting all the tyres from?

lotta people gonna be late for work this mornin
I haven't seen a cop in forever. They probably all went home as soon as the smoke shield went up, let the fire-fighters manage the situation. And just after having lunch the entire force will come back at once fully rested.
"Yeah, let's just let them throw rocks at smoke for a day or so and then come back"

Most likely getting them driven in from dumps just outside the city.

No, At one point UKR and RT got a glimpse of past the smoke, There was about two formations of police in bulk.

On the left side of the statue in the middle in the smoke, it was clear for a second I saw a few people running past like they just did something.

Cardboard cutouts on RC cars. It's all a grand ploy.
my leg is now on sync with the clanging i've been listening to it so long
One part of me wants to see the police come in and fuck everything up and the revolt get crushed. One part of me wants to see the protests stop peacefully one way or another. One part of me wants to see the protesters fuck shit up and the parliament get crushed.
Anyway, I'm pretty sure the police did go away, or at least retreat, because now you can see the smoke blowing heavily into the area beyond the barricade.

I'm still wondering how the hell the police haven't just found a way around the barricade by now, I can see at least three other streets leading out of the area.
The fires are pretty much gone in the far right end of the tire wall. If anything that's probably where the police will try and breach (and where a lot of the rioters are gathering as well).

no part of me at all wants to see those people crushed by police and a revolution thats in the right snuffed out
Anyone find it ironic that the wind has been blowing the smoke towards the police (Goverment) the entire time and it's been dusted and painted pitch black by the burnt rubber while the protestors side is bright and cleanish.
Suddenly, Tanks.
People are running in and throwing rocks.
