The Hong Kong 1 July protests (Chinese: 七一遊行) is an annual protest rally originally led by the Civil Human Rights Front since the 1997 handover on the HKSAR establishment day. However, it was not until 2003 that the march drew large public attention by opposing the legislation of Basic Law Article 23. The 2003 protest, with 500,000 marchers, was the largest protest seen in Hong Kong since the 1997 handover.[1] Prior to this, only the 21 May 1989 pro-democracy protest drew more people with 1.5 million marchers in Hong Kong sympathizing with the participants of the Tiananmen Square protests of 1989.[2] The introduction of Article 23 legislation was temporarily shelved because of the protest. Since then, the 1 July marches have been held every year as a channel to demand for democracy, universal suffrage, rights of minorities, protection of freedom of speech and a variety of other political concerns.

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! )
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.
