On the march today there were
many who expressed outrage and anger at the killing and
shooting on J20.
Pink bloc marchers were sad and
distressed at killing of activists - it must stop.
This is what Piazza Kennedy
looks like at 3 pm, J21. While the demonstration is slowly
moving up Torino, several thousand people have confronted
the police at Piazza Kennedy in response to the tear gas
attacks by police which happened before.
Tear gas gets lobed into the
convergence center, at least 30 lots of tear gas has been
thrown just in front of the march, where clashes are
happening. The march prepares to go on wearing protection
from more tear gas. Some conflict is still occurring and
this has been going on for at least an hour and a half now.
After police had attacked the
peaceful demonstration around Piazza Kennedy with massive
amounts of tear gas, they chased people along the sea front.
At the same time, as many as 25 police and Coast Guard boats
appeared offshore. Whether they expected those fleeing from
the rioting police to escape swimming is unknown.
