All organizators have asked the demonstrators to use no violence. It is interesting to see what the police is doing against those violent demonstrators who passed the borders from Germany and other countries - the so-called "demo tourists", who get a kick from creating trouble in otherwise peaceful demonstrations (as we have seen them mess up the scene in Seattle). Austrian police is systematically confiscating the weapons from these people, but allow them to participate in the demonstration after they have no more equipment left which could be used to hurt anybody. All construction sites in the demonstration area are especially guarded, so that demonstrators cannot acquire pavement- stones from there and use them as weapons. TV-pictures show that the police people must have been individually trained to not lose control of their temper, and always act in a careful way without hurting anybody. So far it looks all very constructive. Is Austria setting examples again?
