Bank Holiday Monday: up to 1000 people partied hard on the streets of Dublin on the south side of the River Liffey along Burgh Quay and George's Quay. The east end of the quay at Butt Bridge was blocked and at 3pm the party was in full swing with three sound systems, capoeira, football, twister, dancing, bongoing, cheering and guerrilla gardening. As a disused car was pushed onto the street the Gardai made their first attack, arresting 2 or3 people including one on crutches. After 2-3 hours of partying the crowd disbanded into smaller groups, one making its way towards Dame St. and then Civic Offices, Wood Quay. The Gardai then continued attacks with batons, injuring many including children and passers-by and making over 20 arrests. There have been many accusations from all sides of overuse of excessive force by Gardai, and of removing their numbers in order to be anonymous.

 On Friday the 26th of April 2002 in NCAD, Dublin, 10 televisions were sacrificed using
a sledgehammer, an axe, an aluminum baseball bat and a pick axe.
There’s a number of reasons it was done, you can check them out here:
If, on the other hand you just want to look at photographs and video of people thrashing the idiot box you can go straight here: Photos 1: Feel your pain, TVs. Photos 2: The Televisions have been Sacrificied Photos 3: More TV Death Video 1: Television Sacrificial Ceremony Video 2: Ultimate TV Carnage Who thought TV could be this much fun? Television Sacrifice improves your health: - at the point of contact of weapon and television tube, endorphins will be released into the bloodstream, reducing stress and alleviating aggression. - aiming the weapon will improve your hand to eye co-ordination - whereas watching television will increase your levels of zombification, smashing television actually stimulates thinking and interaction with other humans.
