I'm actually a little skeptical after what I saw last ANZAC day. During the dawn service in a small country town last year at the local ANZAC monument, the proprietor of the general store type shop, whom I'll just say is from another country, unlocked his front door and proceeded to walk inside and set off his alarm. He let the alarm blare no more than 30 metres from the monument for several minutes before walking to the back of the store to turn it off; much to the utter disbelief of current and past diggers and their families. I didn't think anyone would ever do something like that.. but they did, so nothing surprises me these days when I hear comments like the above.
If I lived in that country town I wouldn't be going in that store again. Driving elsewhere would not be a problem.

If it happened here, I suspect some crusty RSL members would ... express their displeasure to the individual
