They weren't (from wiki):
Quote:The summit became the focus of protests from a number of disparate groups over various long standing and topical issues. These ranged from disquiet over economic policy, anger at the banking system and bankers renumeration and bonuses, the continued war on terror and concerns over climate change.
The protests aren't the issue. Freedom of speech and expression in a democracy guarantee us the right to protest whatever we want. What was the issue was the attacks by police.
