Videos of Civil Society Protests in Copenhagen

I've just witnesed an intense protest here in Coepnhagen.  The event was called Reclaim Power and was supposed to be a peaceful protest by civil society in response to being shut out of the negotiations, but it wasnt so peaceful.  I'll write a more indepth post soon, but in the meantime check out the footage I got.  I was right in the thick of things until the tear gas got going at which point I left.
