Okay...on to what has me really pissed off.
As all of you should know by now, I'm an anarchist.
I believe I should have the right to govern myself.
I believe rational people would be able to do fine without authority.
Well...Denmark disagrees.
So does America, but that's not today's topic for once.
Yeah, it's not even in my back yard and it has me pissed.
To fully understand why I am so pissed you have to be able to look at it from an anarchist's perpsective and you may need to know a few terms.
Well, one term.
Squatting.
Don't know what squatting is?
Basically it's the use of unowned or abandoned land.
No one else is using it, and it's not dangerous to anyone aside from the squatters themselves.
Nothing wrong with that, right?
Well, the Politi definitely disagree.
March 1, 2007.
Politi evict the residents of Ungdomshuset, a squat in Copenhagen.
The building was given to the squatters movement in 1982 by the workers' union.
So...they were using a building no one else was using.
They were squatting.
Oh, that's right...they were leftists.
So they must be criminals.
They must be on drugs.
They must be pushing it on other people.
So they were evicted by the fucking police.
This, obviously, did not sit well with the residents.
The residents took to the streets.
Protests were held.
But, dissenters don't get free speech.
So the politi moved in on the protests.
The protests then became a black bloc.
The black bloc became a riot.
Now...some people would look at the riot and disapprove instantly.
Well, what if you lost your home?
What if you lost people you cared for?
What if it was all for "order?"
You would riot, too.
