A ceremony was held in Taiwan recently to mark the changing of that name of Chiang Kai-shek Memorial Hall to National Taiwan Democracy Memorial Hall. People for and against the name change gathered at the hall, scuffling with police and with each other, and doing what they could to demonstrate their feelings about the name change.

One old man decided to express his distaste over the even by dropping his pants and shouting ”[Taiwan President] Chen Shui-bian has no balls!”

As funny as this seems, it looks as if dropping your trousers for a good cause it becoming quite the fad around the globe. The photo below shows a scene from Mexico City where demonstrators were demanding the return of land they way was confiscated from them illegally.
