I'll run with that, not that I could dream of dying it... except silver?

Btw I don't recommend swimming in Sloane Square fountain as:
A) The water tastes foul, even though it does look like
B) You will come out covered in green slime. (Maybe add washing powder and clean your clothes at the same time?)
C) The take a dim view of it.

Here is a photo (not one of mine I hasten to add!!!)

London cop's unprovoked attack on G20 protestor BYSTANDER who then has fatal heart attack
Posted by Cory Doctorow, April 7, 2009 10:00 PM | permalink
A London cop charged Ian Tomlinson, a G20 demonstrator an innocent bystander at the G20 demonstrations who was on his way home from work, who was walking peacefully with his hands in his pockets, clubbing him and throwing him to the ground without provocation. Shortly after, he suffered a fatal heart attack. Does anyone believe that Tomlinson was the only person who was attacked without provocation by the police that day?


Dramatic footage obtained by the Guardian shows that the man who died at last week's G20 protests in London was attacked from behind and thrown to the ground by a baton-wielding police officer in riot gear.

Moments after the assault on Ian Tomlinson was captured on video, he suffered a heart attack and died.

Video reveals G20 police assault on man who died (Thanks, Dan and everyone else who suggested this!)
Previously:

it's not the first time we've heard stories like this - and it won't be the last either

.. I am usually a bot careful with the use of the term "innocent bystander", more so in the middle of a violent demonstration

could be, could not be. I don't know so I don't judge.

exactly

when i said "it's not the first time we've heard stories like this" i did not mean that i believe them

i did not mean that i do not believe them either

i know nothing

.. there were the metro riots in Amsterdam in 1971/1972 I knew I wasn't an innocent bystander then and I never claimed I was although I just stood there, without raising arm, voice, or ..

I did raise my eyebrows as well

.. yes .. innocent

indeed
