This is the Face of a Peace Activist, not a threat to public safety.

(Photo by Tannis Toohey/Toronto Star) Joshua Enns says he was at a prayer vigil and David Breed says he was out for a walk when both were arrested yesterday and found themselves at the Eastern Ave. detention centre. Both had pocket knives on them and face concealed weapons charges. Enns, who is studying to be a math student, says he was strip searched and moved from cell to cell, unable to talk to a lawyer. He was “passing peace” to officers on the front lines when four officers took him into custody. He was wearing a black T-shirt that reads, “Peace.” He says he was driven around for hours and spent five hours in pain because he had to pee. “I hope this is cleared up so I’ll be able to teach,” he says. He says he uses is dollar-store knife to cut fruit. Breed, a security guard at Molson Amphitheatre, says he and his girlfriend were watching the bike rally and thinking about brunch when he was taken into custody. His girlfriend, waiting outside the detention centre for him, had lawyers numbers scrawled in her arm. (via G20 — Toronto 2010
