The torch through Canberra.
As I am writing this, the Olympic torch is being run around Canberra by various people who are being protected and flanked by police and police vehicles. People have come from everywhere to protest the torch, either for or against, China.
One of my Heroes, Bob Brown, had a sky writer write 'Free Tibet' across the sky during the run.

And, according to this article, this might be the last time the torch comes to Australia. I dont believe that for a moment and it is just a scare tactic to get people to calm down. Why should they calm down? Since when has voicing your opinions been something to be threatened about? (ok, since, like, forever...).
