I loved it.
There's a masked man crawling around behind it and apparently he just unplugged the monitor.
He had his comrades in the stands, you know, putting anti-VAR slogans.
Look, I like VAR.
I think VAR has been good for the game.
A lot of people don't.
I'm okay with protests and direct actions.
Call me a radical.
As long as they're non-violent, don't cause massive disruption and whatever else.
And as long as you're prepared to face the consequences, right?
Because this is the key thing with direct action.
The people who've done it historically, whether it be Nelson Mandela or civil rights protesters or whoever, or environmentalists, facing consequences means that you accept being detained or arrested or whatever, right?
You did this once.
Okay, we get the message.
I don't need to see this again.
I don't want to see this go into violence.
You've done it.
You did it in a way that got people talking about you.
We know you don't like it.
Next time, maybe come up with something else.
