Melbourne Covid Protests. The other side:

A certain Awakened individual has been putting out a story about police violence over the past few days regarding anti Vaccine protests.
There is enough fairly reported material out there on news.com.au... or abc.com.au that I wont bore you with it.
Its safe to say that while several police were hospitalised, some with broken bones, and a few protesters also received medical treatment, no one on either side was killed or had life threatening injuries.. One arrested protestor has been found to be Covid positive and is in hospital related to that, causing several police officers involved in his arrest to be quarantined.
As a side note, the condemnation of these protestors is universal in the public. With the police being called out for dealing with them too lightly.
Everyone arrested copped a fine over $5000. Just for being there. Those who attacked police or caused Damage to vehicles or our Shrine of Remeberance will face charges. Dont believe what you read here without checking reliable outside sources.😷

I've seen support voiced for the protestors but it always seems to have an armchair observer's "fvck da police, I'm a gangster too" vibe from tryhards who didn't and would never show up.

Every professional I know is on the same side as the veterans and nurses saying it's just pointless idiocy. The "let's bumrush the authorities" appeal seems to be solely with dudes with too much time on their hands because they're not doing much with their lives
