Who Is This Black Bloc Fellow?

Still troubled by the illegal actions of police during last week’s G20, I’ve been doing some forensic research on the various social media coverage of the violence.

Is this man "black bloc," undercover police or worse, an agent provocateur?

You can see for yourself below. Just hit the space bar on your computer to pause the video a few times and it becomes as clear as a bell: at least one person dressed in the incriminating attire of the “black bloc” is seen here at 0:45, running alongside various police officers in this troubling scene from Queens Park:

If nothing else, an independent public inquiry is needed to answer simple questions like “who is this black bloc fellow running with the cops in this video and why wasn’t he arrested on the spot?” — MG
