My Kind of Protest

These ladies in the Ukraine know how to do a protest. They aren't some skanks like that motely crew from Code Pink or some hags from NOW. They actually bring out the hot babes. Who cares what they're actually protesting, they look good.
Four young women naked from the waist up barged into a Ukrainian polling station on Sunday and held a rowdy protest just before a candidate in the country's presidential election cast his ballot there.

The women, members of a small feminist group called Femen known for staging eye-catching protests, were hustled out of the Kiev polling station by security guards before Viktor Yanukovich showed up to vote, AFP journalists saw.

"Enough raping our democracy!" shouted the protesters, who held signs with slogans such as "Help! Rape!" and wore nothing except for jeans and strips of green electrical tape over their nipples.

The women told reporters they were protesting against "the end of democracy" in Ukraine and not specifically against Yanukovich or in favour of his rival, Prime Minister Yulia Tymoshenko.
One of the protesters actually makes good use of pink.

As to the election, opposition candidate Yanukovich appears to have won, although the outcome is going to be contested.
