one personal thought

I agree that the carabiniere has to pay the consequences of his action. after all he is there to impose order, not to shoot people.

but I ask myself: if I were twenty years old (20 years, 20!), after a day like that saturday in Genoa, after remaining trapped there, above all abandoned by some twenty colleagues that, instead of rescuing me, continue to do what they've been doing the whole day, i.e. watch and let those with the helmets do the trashings, inside a van which is being assoulted with poles and iron bars, with Carlo (c'mon, don't say me he was picking the estinguisher up "so that the comrade in purple shirt won't trip over" - we ask honesty to the press, then we are capable of saying such bullshit) ... would I shit myself? or would I've been able to stay cool and think "I'm a carabiniere, for fuck's sake, I can't shoot my own people"?

....mmmmmh, I wouldn't know.....

one thing is sure: he has to pay.

but I'm surer of another thing: the ones who should pay more are those who put in that situation kids just 20 years old (20 years old, for fuck's sake!!!).

[p.s. I had to upload the file as plain text, as PDF from the media type... doh!]
