Guardian: Reports the following from Greece, “ Police fired teargas at protesters outside the Greek parliament as MPs began debating the deeply unpopular bailout deal … ”. The Police have to come down hard on those that use violence to protest, a General Strike is one thing, that is the withdrawal of labour, the use of violence to gain a political point is not Democratic, the protesters should use their number to place pressure on Greek MPs to do the right thing, losing a vote is important to politicians, thus political pressure YES, NEVER violence.
