Oh, and LOL at the 'anarchist' in the New Era cap! Way to give it to the Man!

Never got that; that is why fashion is seen as somehow more consumerist and frivilous than music, computers, sport etc. Is it because anarchism and lefties in general are often shot through with a kind of ascetic moralism? I am an advocate of anarchism and am sat here in levis and a billabong hoodie :D

People confuse anarchism with chaos and dystopia for some reason. I blame the Jews.
I would expect anyone seriously into anti-Globalisation to avoid at least the bigger/most demonised globalised brands... Nike, Coca Cola, large banks... actually, New Era probably doesn't fall into that category (although I can't see many Anarchists tuning into ESPN's Baseball Roundups :P ), really I just like to make cheap shots at photos! 8)

I used to be right into all this kinda stuff, and I still agree with much of the politics, but that aside... always amazed me how many crusties are minted or having minted parents. :o

Take Coke Cola from my cold dead hand :x

Is that the same one as this? Because I've wanted one for a while but this picture doesnt look as convincing as yours.

I got pushed through the line of feds and couldn't get back in, so had a wander to other sides of the protest and some proper hardcore crusties turned up to one side with a portable rig with some loud dubstep :D

I've mentioned it before...but isn't it funny how this one RBS was the only building in the whole area that wasn't boarded-up?

Which just happened to be where the protestors were being penned in?

Hmmm. :?

Police medics aren't there to be medics, they're just advanced first aiders to look after their own. Their priority is policing not medical care. Totally different role to a paramedic or a battlefield medic who are neutral. Therefore police medics are a legitimate target for a kicking if they use violence themselves in an unprovoked manner.

(I am not ACAB btw, just had my experiences with the police)
