Anarchist defuses potentially violent journalist

Kn own troublemaker Brendan O'Connor on the streets of Dublin

On a sunny afternoon a journalist claims he was assaulted by a large puppet. Fortunately some anarchists were close by to defuse the situation.

Brendan O'Connor is well known to Indymedia readers as the only man in Ireland who could get into the US transporters to count the burgers. He was out looking to talk to some of the protestors on the Grassroots No Borders event this morning.

When his head was brushed by the hand of a puppet, Mr O'Connor immediately claimed he was assaulted and, in the description of one shocked anarchist who was in the area 'seemed to start foaming at the mouth'.

Despite this behaviour the protestors managed to calm the situation effectively, bringing peace and harmony to the streets of Dublin.
