Protest!Sit-ins. Walk-outs. Smashing up the headquarters of a major political party. Chaining yourself to the railings outside your local sweet shop because they changed Marathons to Snickers. How have you stuck it to The Man?

Smile!I was on a protest march once, rather reluctantly as it happens - not an issue really cared that much about, but the other 'arf did so I was dragged along. Typically, as we passed McDonalds, some rent-a-mob fuckwits decided to smash the windows. Since this didn't relate even tenuously to the theme of the march, I decided I'd had enough and bailed.
As I turned abruptly away from the march column, I stepped right in front of a copper who was photographing people. This was when they'd just started doing this, and it was a fearsome looking camera, with an equally big flash which popped right in my face.
For a second I stood, rather dazed, staring at the equally surprised plod. Then my stupid gland must have recovered, because I said, "Any chance of a print, then?"
Thankfully he laughed and replied "I shouldn't think so, mate" and we went about our day.

Was expecting this to be about Ian Tomlinson. The guy who the police murdered at the G20.www.youtube.com/watch?v=HECMVdl-9SQ
