A violent brawl has continued into the evening, as protesters clashed on the streets of Melbourne ahead of a talk from right-wing commentator, Milo Yiannopoulos.

It gives me a warm feeling just imagining a group of violent radical leftist idiots each being on the receiving end of a face-full of pepper spray.

If you're catching flak, you're probably over the target.

Look up “pepper spray” or “bear spray on humans” on youtube.
Fun to watch!

Also google “Muslim problem Australia” for perspective on the riots described in this thread.

It’s a few hundred people in an area a little way out of the main city zones most people visit - it’s extremely unlikely she would be anywhere near it. So don’t worry too much.
