No TAV demonstrator

2012 Reader Submission
Pending Acceptance

Today here in Italy we have a sure winner for 2012!

A "professional" NIMBY demonstrator that climb an high voltage tower to protest against TAV (Italian's high speed trains) while deriding LIVE via radio the policemen who tried to block him.

Of course on the high voltage tower there was high voltage current! (Straaaaaange!!!) so he got his deserved kick, that caused also him to fall from about 10m. So now we have a good chance to purify a bit our genetic pool!!!

First page in all italian newspapers today (27 feb 2012):

While this could use a better write-up, I think it's cartoony enough for consideration. We'll see what the other moderators think...! Thanks Alberto!

It's been a while since we had one of these! And bonus for smartmouthing the police -aka those who know better- while doing it. Thanks Alberto!
