According to Zem the Italian police have found a catchy new way to deal with unruly protestors...

The BBC reports on an inquiry into a police raid at the Genoa G8 summit protests in 2001. According to transcripts, police have admitted planting petrol bombs and staging a mock stabbing in order to justify a violent raid that left 72 injured protestors - none of whom were charged.

As opposed to the Victorian Police during the (original) S11 who let the unwashed masses kick the living suitcase out of them for two days and didn't actually pin enough on any of them to carry a court case. Fools, one and all.
