Police protect Neo Nazis as they protest in Melbourne

looks like you forgot a few details there.

"After walking all over the city, being idiots, causing random damage and then pissing on the shrine, the idiot cookers ignored three directives to go home and then the police shut it down".

What are you trying to get at? The example given before was people on this reddit see climate protesters getting arrested and i always see the same shit "the cookers are allowed to". It has nothing to do with the message or the reason for the protest if it's shut down or allowed. It has everything to do with the legality of the protest i,e permits and council notification etc and safety / illegal activities occurring or not.

this isn't correct either but i'm too lazy to bother to find the evidence because it sure doesn't sound like you're here in good faith tbh.

Me? Brother i'm here saying i work in the city, i've seen protests for climate, LGBT, BLM, Anti-Vax, Nazi, Antifa etc etc all allowed to occur. I've also seen then shut down when they go too far, do illegal shit or don't go about booking it the right way.

My 'good faith' is saying, i haven't seen police shut down a peaceful legal protest simply because it was LGBTI which was implied by the person I replied to.

I think the bad faith isn't coming from me here mate.
