Smash EDO protester.
EDO is a company in Brighton who protestors say provide bomb arming and release mechanisms used by Israeli aircraft. The protesters wish to shut the company down.
Up to 150 activists took part in the latest protest, however they did not get near to EDO's premises. Eventually, many of the protesters were 'kettled' by the Lewes road leading back into Brighton and arrested to prevent breach of the peace. "Given those arrested have been detained to prevent a breach of the peace, we anticipate that they will be released when the risk of a further breach has diminished."-Sussex Police
There were 53 arrests confirmed.
Image was made in Ukraine during protests against Volodymyr Zelenskyy’s decision to get rid of highly effective Ukrainian minister of defence Mykhailo Fedorov.
Mykhailo Fedorov was the most successful Ukrainian minister of defence. He was fighting against corruption in army forces and corruption in lots of spheres in Ukraine. However, that was distracted elite of Ukraine who were losing money. And as the result - he was fired.
People are fighting to get back most successful minister into the office. Those protests are taking place from 16th July. And already caused change of Chief of Armed Forces Syrskyi to more popular - Mykhailo Drapatyi.
But, the main purpose of those protests is still not completed.
These guys come out and protest Gasparilla every year, though I don't remember them ever using a megaphone until this year. According to them, Gasparilla is evil and every Muslim, Buddist, Hindu, Jew, Catholic, and Homosexual is going to Hell. You can also find them on 7th Avenue in Ybor on most weekends.

Today 17 september 2011 there was in Turin a national protest against hunting. Many organizations, simple citizens and also some NO TAV protesters attendet the protest. We were two thousands.
Here in Italy citizens are 80% against hunting. On over 60 millions italian citizens there are only 700 thousands hunters, there are a little minority. Despite this, politicians and regional representatives are servile to hunting lobby... so hunters obtain more and more favours.
Hunters can violate private property and citizens cannot oppose, in some regions (eg. Piedmont) they can hunt in parks and conservation areas... and now they're asking to hunt expecially protected and endangered species as wolves! I love Nature and wildlive and totally oppose hunting!
Policiais atacaram os estudantes que protestavam ontem (06/03/2013) em Cuiabá. Tudo que os estudantes queriam era o direito de ter um teto sob o qual viver enquanto cursam a graduação.

Press Release – ItsOurFuture.org.nz
The lead-up to Saturdays protests against the TPPA shows the commitment of people across the country to send a message that the government cant ignore, said ItsOurFuture spokesperson Edward Miller.Nationwide day of action against TPPA: “Ignore us at your peril” government warned
“The lead-up to Saturday’s protests against the TPPA shows the commitment of people across the country to send a message that the government can’t ignore”, said ItsOurFuture spokesperson Edward Miller.
A video shows young activists publicising Saturday’s nationwide protests with footage from Auckland, Wellington, Dunedin, Christchurch, and Nelson.
Action in the 22 centres starts at 10am in Raglan and many of the larger centre marches begin at 1pm, including Auckland, Wellington and Christchurch.
“People have been incredibly creative”, Miller said. “In Christchurch a giant plain-packaged cigarette packet will be marching in the crowd, while Auckland will be led by an enormous Trojan Horse, locked in a tug-of-war between major commercial interests and activist communities.”
“Around the country everyday kiwis will be photographed for a virtual campaign with signs saying ‘I am a ___________ and I say #TPPANoDeal.’ Already this campaign has been very popular.”
“Trade minister Tim Groser needs to recognise that people don’t buy the ‘trust me’ line. They want to be listened to when they say they don’t want the TPPA. And they deserve to be listened to.”

From the recent protest regarding access to abortion on 1 December 2021 in front of the U.S. Supreme Court. (This was the morning the court took up the case to effectively end access to abortion.)
Spotted this guy waiting to cross Michigan Ave. to join the Anti-war protest march across the street. I was using a wide angle lens so I was pretty close to him. Of course, I was pretending to be taking a picture of something else. He was pretty cool with it.

I was stunned, overwhelmed, and astonished by the protest at Shahbag. Within minutes I was engulfed by the spirit, energy, and excitement of the crowd there, immediately drawn in the public's desire to get "proper" justice. The environment was phenomenal--there were people from all backgrounds, ages, and religions--and the air was electric with the slogans, optimism, and hopefulness of the crowd.
The country has finally united against an enemy that has burdened it with corruption and hatred even before it was born.
Read my blog entry on the Hong Kong protest at guywong.blogspot.com/2014/10/hong-kong-protest.html
The press has been extremely biased with its reporting, interviewing predominantly the protesters and their leaders, criticizing those who oppose the movement, and denigrating the Hong Kong government and police. Their articles concentrate on peaceful protesters yearning for democracy but fail to show the violent and disruptive side of the protest. Hong Kong is actually a very free city with all the characteristics of democracy.
The protest is not a spontaneous student movement but a well funded and well organized anti-government undertaking.
I have also included at the bottom of the blog entry how foreigners are involved in the planning and funding of the protest.
