Here on the City Hall side – at the Portland Stands United Against Hate Rally – look closely at the faces. Look at the messages. Here on this Sunday was the better better angels of our nature.

Turkey has some very strict laws against criticizing the government. I don't know what this protest was about, but I was a little surprised to see anything like this allowed on the streets at all.
There is a small group of people who are protesting the State of Texas removing 400-something kids from the FLDS polygamist compound. They are in front of the Delta Center where the Utah Jazz are playing the Houston Rockets in the NBA Playoffs. Rockets-> Houston-> Texas-> CPS removing children from homes. So the protest is a bit removed from the intended target. It was still fun to watch them.
Massive protests in the city today against the new Queensland Premier Campbell Newman. He got in with a promise of 'Can Do' but it turns out what he can do, has done, is slash about 15.000 jobs so far in the public service, mainly from the Health Department, nursing, doctors and ambulance staff, Disability and community services, Education, Firefighting. And so on. There is a lot of anger in the community, understandably. Typical action for a Liberal party politician I think. (yes, the $20 sticker on this man's t-shirt indicates that he is selling the shirts too! )

Protests took place in Rochdale on Saturday 22 July 2017.
The Force worked to ensure the events took place safely and ensuring the right to protest while minimising any disruption to the local community.
Chief Superintendent Neil Evans, Borough Commander, said: “This has been a challenging day with hundreds of people attending Rochdale town centre for the protest.
“I understand that these events are very emotive and that tensions may run high when there are polarised views and counter-protests.
“However, we have worked jointly with Rochdale Council and the community to ensure the most effective way to facilitate and manage this protest in a balanced and safe manner.
“This has very much been a community focused operation aimed at reducing the impact of the protest on the normal lives of people in Rochdale.
“I would like also like to thank members of the community who have acted as mediators and helped the smooth running of today’s event.
“In order to ensure we could deliver a safe operation we deployed large numbers of police which meant another busy weekend for officers, who have worked long hours in challenging circumstances to look after our communities.
“It was pleasing to see that this protest did not stop the people of Rochdale from going about their normal activities.”
