Last Tuesday Danish police was guarding masked workers, who were tearing down the (almost finished) first floor of a youth collective in Christiania. Again the politicians and the leaders of the police has managed to waste a whole lot of time and money as the peaceful demonstrations of the day, at night time escalated to the riot-like struggles provoked by the police, seen in Copenhagen so many times lately. Six days before the trial of Christiania begins in national court, it is hard not to see an underlying political wish for negative publicity of Christiania. The whole area of Christianshavn was covered in tear gass and since both police and most of the protesters were wearing gass masks I can't help getting frustrated by the nonsense. The findings of one undetonated gas grenade and shells of the kinds illegal to use in crowds only underlines the irresponsible behavior of the Danish police. And this is only the beginning.
The house is being rebuild these days. Yesterday the trials began and is running till November 19th. Keep fighting for what you believe! Defend you freedom - defend Christiania!
