Police are on the scene.

About 40 police dressed in full riot gear are lined up in two rows in front of the port gates.

There is a human blockade of around 100 anti-war demonstrators blocking the port exit. No activity from inside the port as of yet.

The counter protesters are "pretty passive right now", according to my source.

I'd come down and witness it.

I don't have time myself...

Besides, I don't like being downwind of pepper spray :-)

It's interesting to watch really

It leaves a little bit of pent up adrenaline behind, but provided you don't get the actual spray on you, being downwind isn't so bad.
