Huzzah!
Democracy protected from “a level of violence not previously experienced in Sydney…” inflicted by… a guy… in… a… skirt.
Sun will rise tomorrow!
Saved by $140million worth of security!
First APEC arrest’s a real sauce

Police have made their first protester arrest in Sydney’s Hyde Park this afternoon after a man squirted tomato sauce on a pro-US banner.
The brand of the tomato sauce used in the attack is not known, or whether it was the product of a multi-national company.
Let’s hope it was dolphin safe, non-GM, low-food-miles, 100% 
organic sauce… lest the increasingly corporate SMH actually have some valid complaint of hypocrisy against the protesters… or perhaps writer Tadros is merely content to idly stereotype dissenters.
In other news, protesters also brought buns (and a few ugly rolls) to go with that sauce.

if it had only been ketchup
the protest would have been 46% more intense!
and I salute, commend, and wish peace and love to those wonderful mooners – bless them.
