G-8 Summit?

Question

Why are there protests to the G-8 summit?

Isn't it an effort to help people in need?

I'm not leaning one way or the other. I'm not even on the fence really.

Intelligible answers only, please.

Answer 1

There are three types of people at these protests.

1. Anarchists. They just want to create chaos.

2. True believers. They think that the G8 countries should distribute their wealth to poor nations.

3. Publicity hounds. They just want to see their faces on TV.
