Hi, we may not agree on some points (and I certainly disagree with the statement I've highlighted), but I'd like to suggest you don't repeat comments like that in an open forum.
For the security forces it really would not be difficult to find your true identity, by tracing your registered email on this site. I don't think we're at that stage of a society just yet, but best to err on caution? I STILL stand by what I wrote, why the heck should the police be allowed to illegaly beat the crap out of people and not expect those people to fight back. |

Thanks for your concern, however I'm fully aware of how forums work and this place has NEVER had a real IP or working email addy of mine ;)

If the worst comes to the worst, and you find yourself banged up, I will bake you a cake. I won´t bother putting a file in it, you will be able to use the cake to smash your way out, as cake making is not my forte.:D |
Re: Shocking Scenes in Madrid.
For those of you who don't watch Spanish news, the official stance from the chief of police is basically it was the periodistas faults for not wearing jackets that identified them as journalists! So in short, once again the government is justifying the needless, unnecessary, aggressive & violent abuse from the policia nacional towards people for no reason other than not wearing a "press" jacket!? The journalists have denounced these acts as have the www.osce.org. http://www.osce.org/node/116993 "TORONTO, 1 April 2014 – OSCE Representative on Freedom of the Media Dunja Mijatović today expressed today deep concern about the violence and intimidation by police against journalists covering the demonstrations which took place in Madrid on Saturday 29 March 2014." |

I can't watch it all the time though, usually a Wednesday and a Friday or Monday as it (Spanish news) is so repetitive, That Suarez thing, did it not go on and on, I suppose the same if not worse could have been said for Maggie, but if your not going to give a national holiday then please change the record. |
