thepeoplesrecord: A protester stares down riot police on College Street behind the Hilton Hotel on Sunday, July 29. Hundreds of protesters turned out for demonstrations against the 26th Annual Conference of New England Governors and Eastern Canadian Premiers, which begins Monday. Burlington police in riot gear shot protesters with what they described as “pepper balls” and “stingball pellets” as a large, peaceful demonstration turned violent and ugly Sunday afternoon. At 3:30 Sunday afternoon they were in front of Burlington’s Hilton Hotel on Battery Street to make their voices heard, “No tar sand pipeline.” They flattened themselves on the pavement to create a symbolic human oil spill.
