Update:

Occupy Canada shared European Revolution's photo.
July 11 - "At least 76 people have been injured in Madrid as clashes flared up between protesters and police, the latter using rubber bullets. Thousands of Spaniards turned out against new cuts introduced by the government.

Those injured include 33 police officers and 43 protesters – miners and their supporters.

Protesters panicked and sought shelter as police began to disperse the crowd, Olvidio Gonzalez, 67, a retired miner from the northern Asturias region told AP.

“We were walking peacefully to get to where the union leaders were speaking and they started to fire indiscriminately. There was no warning,” said Gonzalez, who was also struck by a rubber bullet.

About 200 people remain surrounded by dozens of police in front of parliament, Twitter user Danips posted on his microblog."

a livestream, as far as I remember. Pics, yes...this is an ongoing event. Or am I thinking of the miners who are marching, I believe that's in Spain. Quite honestly, there are so many people out marching demanding change it is difficult to keep track, and I love it!
