If you need security this tight...

Chances are that you're a real jerk. Some photos from a German news web site showing the extraordinary security today in Mainz for the temporary invasion of aWol and his band of goons:

Autobahn closed.


Huge traffic jams, cops everywhere.


Bicyclist has to find a detour.


Schnelle Boot Veterane für Wahrheit.

Of course, there has been some reaction:



Kyoto, not war.




One sign I can't agree with. Bush, stay there.


Several thousand people in the streets of Mainz (the ones not closed down, anyway).
