And here's another few vehicles (including a van of the Guardia di Finanza) supposedly being torched during the street protests of Rome - on October 15, 2011. I still have to find out where this supposedly happened - all I know is that I certainly didn't witness this scene:
Here is an apparent rear view of these vehicles burning ...
Here is an apparent frontal view of the same vehicles burning .
Here we see a pompiere (Italian firefighter) evaluating the situation:
Here, a firehose finally arrives - but NO WATER SPRAY IS TO BE SEEN !

Someone came and repainted the pedestrian crossing between the second and third photos!

To give the impression that this episode happened in presence of "normal" protesters as well, there were on site weird characters --obviously lone actors-- like this old man:
The signs says " throw the shoe at Silvio". What does this even mean? Nobody knows. The phrase itself returns 7 results in google at this stage. Here he is the actor from a different source:
I'd like to know too. Maybe some connection with this little incident

Maybe it is in reference to the guy who threw the shoe at George Bush at a press conference in Iraq.
The guy went to prison for it. So we are told.
In a side note, it became an internet sensation as a game where you, yes YOU, could aim and throw a shoe to hit a dodgy weaving George Bush.
I see you found the video and added it now.
Yep, that's the one I was thinking about.

Oh - I see, 'shoeing' is some retarded form of protest.
My Italian mother threw many a shoe at me when she was angry.

Yes I see all these references but it is still a bizarre sign, that has no particular history in Italy.
From "Acab" to "Fuck the New World Order", many of the things seen in these Romeriots smell of foreign entities -- perhaps the international fakery team that we see so often at work in so many different locations...

Yes Nonho,
Whenever we look at these photographic records of stage-managed protest events we can see a series of recurring patterns.
One of them is : absurd amounts of people armed with photo/video cameras. The obvious intent is to convey the impression that "scores of people filmed the event, therefore it must be true". This was of course the case with 9/11 and its entirely fabricated pool of 9/11 imagery. However, in the case of the "RomeRiots" - and similar events which are tightly stage-managed in crowd-controlled areas, I believe that most of the folks who take part in these 'photo ops' (directed by the psyop directors) are some sort of 'Otpor volunteer-group' - as notoriously financed by George Soros for decades now. Also, privileged access to these crowd-controlled areas is most probably given to press/newsmedia people - and the lot ("Optor" folks + press folks) makes out the bulk of the people we see in the below picture.
The below picture, as published by Italy's largest newspaper "La Repubblica", is described as a moment of the RomeRiots in which an apprehended lady protester is "stopped and [I kid you not!]liberated by the protesters (from the policemen's grasp)"... (!!! - ) :
Now, let us see how many individuals are armed with cameras here. One out of 2, perhaps?
Don't know about you - but I think that is a ridiculously high rate of camera-armed people. I was there marching the whole day and saw perhaps (generously speaking) one in 40 people with any sort of cameras. The question of "Why are as many as one in 2 of the people seen in the above picture camera-armed ?"- is certainly worth asking.
(NB: please note the amount of expensive reflex and video cameras - nothing that many street protesters ever carry around!)

It's worth asking. I think they knew the ubiquity of cameras would increase.
That is why the absurd numbers of fake amateur video in 2001 is no longer seen as absurd by people today. They don't think about the past and how fast technology has advanced in the public. Most people just absorb the present scenario and assume there was an equivalent ten years ago.
"Everyone has a digital camera or cell phone camera - so therefore everyone had one back then too!"
People still do not understand that cell phones don't work on a whim at 20,000 feet in the sky until special equipment was developed recently to make it happen. Where were all the cell phone pictures of terrorists sent to loved ones before the airplanes crashed?
Oh right ... it was a bad simulation. Just like these micro events within the larger protests.
