Anti-right wing protest, riots afterwars!

Thu Mar 26, 2009, 5:11 PM
So, I went to this "peaceful" demonstration against this right wing political party that was also having a rally at the same time in that city. in advance I already knew that riots were ensued, and how right I was. The center of the city was on lock down because that's where the right wing demonstration was going on, so the peace protest was on the outskirts of the city.
When the demonstration was over, the people wanted to go in the center of town, but ofcourse they couldn't the cops made sure of that, and this is where the story starts...

At first, everything was good, people were just waiting in front of the gate to be let in...

...but soon afterwards, the crowd turned on the cops, started to throw rocks, cans and ooh yes, flares to light up the place :)

Then, it started to turn really violent, some rioters started pulling on the fences to have a go at the cops.

But the cops said "FUCK THIS SHIT" and started prepping their riot squad.

ooh, and say hai to the water cannon!

(don't mind the guy chillin' in this picture)

After they pushed back the crowed a bit, they set up another line

And all this little guy wanted was peace :(
[link]

These guys on the other hand, wanted mayhem!
[link]

So the cops pushed forward again, and they came

They came hard :mad:

And then they set up another line :)

This guy apperently came really hard :mad:

The crowd was actually quite large, they must of outnumbered the cops 10/1 atleast, but the cops were just better equiped...Here's a couple pics of the crowds.

The cops pushed forward again, to disperse the crowds for a last time...
[link]

And it was a succes, the crowds had dissolved in several smaller streets. And love prevailed once again :)

I don't know what else to say, so here's a pic of a cop car flipped on it's side :)

Hoi!

Ja, ik ben dezelfde Leen van op netlog, sterk opgemerkt! ;)

De foto's op mijn deviantart zijn allemaal van een jaar of zelfs twee jaar geleden, en toen vond ik ze leuk, maar nu vind ik ze compleet belachelijk. En ik heb sindsdien me ook niet meer met fotografie beziggehouden. Ik kwam eigenlijk toevallig nog eens op mijn profiel door de link op jou pagina.

Ik studeer journalistiek, en dit jaar krijgen we het vak persfotografie. Vandaar dat mijn interesse voor fotografie eigenlijk weer gewekt is, en ik er wel terug mee bezig wil zijn. Niet alleen voor school, maar ook gewoon als hobby. Al heb ik nog veel te leren ..

Tot hiertoe werkte ik met een gewoon compactje zoals iedereen er eentje heeft. Maar dat was voor school niet doenbaar, dus ik ga me zelf een fatsoenlijke camera aanschaffen. Hij is zelfs al besteld, en hopelijk heb ik hem morgen! Het wordt een Canon EOS 450D.

Groetjes!

Leen

Aiii...canon :p.

Nu ja, als je ooit is een tip nodig hebt ofzo, wil ik je best wel helpen. Hetzij van de technische kant, of practisch, laat het me zeker maar weten ;)
