...and on the same on BBC:
http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/world/europe/4738371.stm

"Tear gas and water cannon were used to break up the party of 5,000 ravers at the weekend CzechTek event, leaving 80 injured, including 50 police officers.

Thousands of people have protested outside the interior ministry."

Dont even no what to say to that, is cruel and brutal to use tear gas on people dancin at a party.

Not that it should make much difference but it says this was a legally planned event, makes you wonder if they were plannin gettin people together so they could attack them.

Anno raves get a bit rowdy and dunno anythin about czech scene but cant see how that sorta policing can be justified.

Venga familia!!!

"Later, Friday the contract got into the media, as well as several interviews with the legal owner of the land, confirming his support for the event and the validity of the contract.

Thats pretty ****ed up, they wanted to close it, they didnt have a reason, so they made on up. I mean i doubt they normally have hundreds of riot police waiting if theres gonna be some problem in a contract somewhere.

It seems to divided the country, many politicians are giving their support to the raid... but:

"The Czech president said on Monday a police crackdown which injured dozens at a rave was a grave mistake that split the country, adding that politicians may have overstepped the constitution in ordering it."

this is why we need to educate people in the government...

Man that is just plain F***ked up. What were they doing wrong? NOTHING!! imagine if all of happyhardcore.com decided to organise & throw a big rave with a valid contract and a legal place to do it.....then out of the blue we get riot police throwing tear gas at us and using water cannons on us when all we are doing is dancing n having a good time!

Police have reached a new low, it makes me sick

Does that really work like it does in the US? Suing people/institutions I mean. If this was in the US then some people with good lawyers could probably get quite a bit of cash through suing. I doubt other countries have as screwed up legal system as we do here though...

an outrage. some ppl are just f*cked in the head. whoever gave the order to commence the attack was a f*cking nutcase!
In the newsletter of Ad noiseam they said that there even was a fatality cuz the police told their trucks to go onto the filed and one of the trucks ran someone over whilst leaving. The raver died...

!GABBER 4 LIFE!
