Ten German protesters were arrested in Athens on Thursday after leaving a giant golden turd on the doorstep of the Berlin embassy in the Greek capital.
The protesters, members of a political-artistic collective, topped their offering off with a huge photo of the German national emblem the eagle that had the head of Chancellor Angela Merkel and very large breasts.
The model was a lifelike replica of a curled turd- several feet tall and covered in gold paper.
Greek police soon arrested ten of the 13-strong group and confiscated their fake faeces, local online English-language newspaper Greek Reporter said.

And no one got beaten up, pepper sprayed or slammed to the pavement? My goodness, those horrible socialist fascists don't even have their night sticks out wailing on people.
It must be terrible to live in a country where you can protest and not get the shit beaten out of you.

(25,183 posts)I had an answer: "Next time, find a dumb ass!" Of course, that didn't work, so I had to switch to, "Smartest ass you've ever kissed!"
That worked.

I so admire people who think like this.
This is so cool.
