Melbourne protest (21.08.21) recap from independent media

An analysis of the police, government and media narrative following anti-lockdown/government protests in Melbourne on 21.08.21.

According to Shane Patton, the Chief Commissioner of Victoria Police, the protest was attended mostly by young angry Victorian men with violence on their mind. Is there any truth to this statement, or is Victoria Police engaging in misinformation and propaganda?

This is my opinion and analysis based on my eye-witness reporting on the day.
