TS/TV/CD Love Blog - Because Of Your Uniqueness

Dick Cheney’s recent visit to Australia provoked a few hundred protesters out on to the streets of Sydney. The heavy police presence reacted quickly and swooped in to nab some obviously dangerous elements… in the shape of two women street performers. Known as ‘Tranny Cops’, they dress up as macho cops complete with ridiculous fake handle bar moustaches - so were arrested for impersonating police.

The Stop The War Coalition, who organised a small protest outside the court today calling for charges to be dropped against the women, said the performance was a protest stunt.

“They satirise the continued presence of riot police at peaceful protest actions,” coalition spokesman Paddy Gibson said outside court.

“They might run around behind them (police) for the crowd, to lighten the mood of the crowd, which increasingly feels intimidated (by police),” said Mr Gibson.

Obviously the Aussies have nothing better to do with their time
