POLICE - German students protests 2010

Today i found this picture in a german newspaper and was shocked to see this much police.

It was planned to be peaceful, and it used to be peaceful. But what for the mass of police?

This is developing since a few years over here in germany, that government is extremly present with huge brigades of sepcially equipped police around on various demonstrations. This frightens me...seems, as if administration is feared of protests and make the people feel, its better not to be on such demonstrations. What you dont see here is, that many people are filmed on video tape...so all members of a demonstration are suspects and potential criminals.

To me this is intimidation...
