I think it’s interesting to note Sydney was the only state that descended into a shit show.
Minns put the mayhem out there and followed up with the assistance of the Australian police against the Australian people.
I will not be told that what I see is not what I saw.

Our reporters were at the protest. This is the moment it turned violent
There were violent clashes between protesters and police in Sydney's CBD as punches were thrown, capsicum spray used, and 27 people arrested. Our reporters were in the thick of it.

Protests were “un-Australian” according to the NSW assistant police commissioner. Police Commissioner, and NSW’s police behaviour and attitude is an affront to the Australian people. They’re callous and shameful by replicating Trump’s vicious ‘ICE’ goons tactics.
