The hardest thing to do is hang up your north american ideas and approach this with an open mind.

Please don't think I'm advocating violence or what is going on now. As an independant film maker I'm just trying to tell the story.

But on that note let me tell you what happen to me the other night.

I had the fortune to film 4 police officers with 2 youths that they had caught. They took them to an impasse. (Alley in english)

There they began to lay bets on who would scream louder when they were hit. Sadly -- and you can call bullshit if you like.

The police noticed I was filming from a distance and I didn't get much of a chance to run. My camera was destroyed and I got a nice kick in the crotch for my "impoliteness."

Luckly I had my canadian passport on me and was saved.

There are 3 sides to every story.

One side.
The other side.

And the truth.

"Obviously since it has spread to almost the entire country and gone on for 11 days. There is more going on here then meets the eyes."

And that is my wife's words in the above statement.
