    They're a rather eclectic group ranging from anarchists, enviromentalists, even groups like The Salvation Army. These meetings bring protestors from all sorts of groups. Although I doubt The Salvation Army would throw rocks at police lines. They protest for enviromental concerns, anti-globalization of course, whatever war is happening at the time, humanitarian needs around the world. Anywhere you have the leaders of the most powerful countries meeting together you're going to have people there trying to have their voices herd.

    LONDON - Tens of thousands of people marched across central London Saturday to demand jobs, economic justice and environmental accountability, kicking off six days of protest and action planned in the run-up to the G20 summit next week.

    More than 150 groups threw their backing behind the "Put People First" march. Police said around 35,000 attended the demonstration, but there were large gaps in the line of protesters snaking its way across the city toward Speaker's Corner in Hyde Park.

    All I'm saying?

    Name it. What are you protesting about?

    Capitalism?

    Poor people?

    What are you protesting?

    And what capitalistic scum of an airline did you fly in on?

    Really... What are they protesting and what do they want the G20 to do?

    I really don't get it...
