Just as World Youth Day pilgrims have the right to attend the event, those not attending have the right to protest and act as they wish without fear of causing an “annoyance” and facing an excessive fine.

WYD is already costing New South Wales $86 million and is now intruding on the lives of non-attendees even further, who most likely consider millions of ‘youth’ invading their city with religious motives highly inconvenient, to say the least.

The state government declared World Youth Day as “a happy and positive celebration of youth" however it is evident that the happy and positive celebrations only extend to those of the Catholic faith, as everyone else tiptoes around, trying not to get their criminal beliefs in the way.
