I have to admit , i broke all covid regulations and went to get a coffee on a certain square in Amsterdam yesterday . There where a couple of thousand people that had exactly the same idea that day ;-) . It was hard to get a coffee do , long waiting-lines in front of the coffee sellers .
It was very peaceful and even fun to see many common people discuss ongoing governmental fuckery while a huge police-force surrounded and infiltrated the crowd wearing normal police gear . I noticed some officers desperately trying to pin point me , i played with that for a while by moving constantly true the crowd .
They where closing in when i suddenly turned to the closest officer with a big smile . She , or what ever Karen creature it was asked me to stop for a bag-control ,... fear in her eyes and all . I cooperated and my bag was checked for concealed weapons or ammo . My question if she was looking for a bomb made her jump up in fear and say , no , just concealed weapons . ( yeah right , i know who i am , or better how they see me ... ANARCHY )
But no , i do not believe in violent solutions , i do like fireworks and things that go boom do , just like some people like to shoot at can's . I am for peace . Anyways next time i won't bring my phone .
So it was a nice gathering of peaceful people drinking a Sunday coffee that did not escalate or get violent . Then at a certain moment all officers left the crowd and the square ,... only to come back fully dressed as riot cops ,... Water canon trucks and the horse-riding cops moved in . There where megaphone cops declaring the square an illegal place to be .
There was a stand-of , while groups of undercover cops tried to infiltrate the crowd . The crowd noticed those fucks and kept them about 3 times from entering the crowd .
But ill bet you , just like always , it was a undercover cop that threw the first stone at the riot cops .
All in all it ended being pushed around by riot-cops ,.. the only violence the crowd was guilty of was in reaction to the inhuman unnecessary use of violence by riot cops . Action reaction . Do not believe a thing big media is telling about it .
BLM protest's last year where violent and aggressive ,... while the cops stood by and watched .
This , yesterday , was just a peaceful gathering .
It was a 4 euro coffee , witch i enjoyed after the raid ... for the waiting-lines where gone , swept away by riot cop's .
It might become a thingy , Sunday coffee at the town-square .
I hope this on the ground witness account is useful to someone , be free stay free or get free , have a nice day all .
