Outrage the statue of Karolyi has been beeing a favorite pastime of neo-cross-arrowers for years: http://szentkoronaradio.com/taxonomy/term/4216

Their latest action was expected, therefore, some civilians tried to organize a protest there at the same time , but the police convinced them not to do so  telling  "would not be able" to protect them: http://evita.nolblog.hu/archives/2010/11/16/ Hetkoznapi_gyalazat /

Therefore, unfortunately, now we can act only to express protest postdated, as a regular for years: 21th November 2010, Budapest, Kossuth Square, at the Statue. (see also our calendar).
