It seems things are falling apart across Europe. I guess this means the little people aren’t all that happy with the ECB solution of saving bankers and billionaires while throwing them under the bus. The barbed wire is a nice touch by the German security forces. I understand they are very good at using barbed wire to control the population. Europe will burn. War is inevitable. The debt house of cards is crumbling. The people are angry. Revolution is in the air. Burn it to the ground. Aren’t Fourth Turnings fun?
Violent Clashes Break Out Next To New ECB Headquarters In Frankfurt As Thousands Protest Austerity: Live Webcast
Submitted by Tyler Durden on 03/18/2015 06:44 -0400
It’s not just Greece which is protesting the utter lack of reforms enabled by the ECB known as “austerity” – as of today so is Germany itself with the so-called #Blockupy movement. According to local media reports, the start of anti-austerity rallies in Frankfurt coincided with the European Central Bank opening its new headquarters, whose occupants are now besieged by tens of thousands of protesters, so perhaps #OccupyQ€ would have been more appropriate. Police said they expect around 10,000 anti-capitalist protesters, marching under the banner of leftist alliance Blockupy, to attend the rally, with a march through the city planned for later in the evening. The result is what according to a police spokesman “is one of the biggest deployments ever in the city.”
As the photos below shows, several police cars have been set on fire, with windows being smashed and demonstrators throwing stones at police ahead of the massive demonstration on Wednesday, and as riots break out across Frankfurt even as thousands of police respond with water cannon, pepper spray and mass arrests.
This uplifting story needs a musical accompaniment. Enjoy!!!
Wrong place to post this. Unrelated to this topic, though there is some explosive water in the video.
I rarely give it much thought but what do you think these riots would look like if the citizens were armed? Would it be game on? Would calmer heads prevail? The standoff at Bundy Ranch gave me some hope that it doesn’t have to go pear shaped but all it would take is one fucknut on either side to squeeze one off and our world would change overnight. I’ll bet internet and cell phones go dark right away except for official govt propaganda. I believe that the right to keep and bear arms comes with extraordinary responsibility to use them only as a last resort. I’m not sure most humans think that way.
And these idiots here get pissed if protesters leave a little trash. They are so unprepared for what is coming.
As has been pointed out. The banks use Soverign Debt as risk free capital and lend out against it. When governments default the bank is bankrupt. When depositors find they have no money in the bank , the real fun begins.
IndenturedServant says: “I rarely give it much thought but what do you think these riots would look like if the citizens were armed? Would it be game on?”
I was wondering something similar after the 2 cops got shot in Ferguson a few days ago. Could it have been a Maidan-style (Ukraine) psy-ops? As in an attempt to stoke the crowd into further violence? The shooter claims he wasn’t aiming at the police, but to score 2 hits out of 5 shots from over 100 feet away seems more than good odds.
@Rise Up–well, it would level the playing field wouldn’t it?
By every measure art, music , architecture :Europe is the most advanced culture humans have devised. And yet, they can’t make Socialism work.
What gets me. The Marxists who are many and who’s numbers have grown in the U.S. Shrug their shoulders. Not only that , they believe a country with third world populations that live in areas that look like Dresden after WWII , should give it a try.
The protesters are described as “anti-capitalists”…
Well, what does that bit of agitprop mean?
Does it mean the Free Shit Army is on the rampage because their free shit is in danger of disappearing?
Does it mean Average Joes are on the rampage because their life savings might be taken from them?
Does it mean a bunch of communist and Marxist assholes are rampaging because that’s what they’re good at?
I find it ironic that those “anti-capitalists” live in a place made so wealthy and prosperous – by capitalism – that they can take the time to rampage against capitalism.
Now, if they’re rampaging against crony capitalism brought on by unlimited fiat currency and debt fueled economies, then that’s different…
Let’s get Old School Funkadelic!!

If increasing violence does begin to occur in our country, the BIS, federal reserve, and puppet politicians only have themselves to blame.
They are completely IGNORING the many millions (and increasing) numbers of citizens who have no opportunity to prosper from all the reasons often discussed.
Prosperity can’t be faked and civil unrest can’t be avoided indefinitely by bribing many citizens with a monthly government check and endless media propaganda of economic “recovery”.
IS ,there you go getting all dumb again . Weapons are to be used as a first resort if you or your family in danger of harm.And in my case family includes little bb.IS ,you aren’t hopeless you just stubborn.
The elites are out numbered 10,000 to one. That didn’t work out so well for Gen Custer. As Gerald Celente says, “when people lose everything, they lose it.” 60% of the populations are feelers and feelers act out, they are controlled by their emotions.
Every once in a while, humanity shits in its diapers. That time is rapidly approaching. Perhaps after this next catastrophic event, we can move on to toilet training. That’s if we survive it.
ECB: “We’re going to assrape savers with Quantitative Easing.”
Germans: “Die in a fire.”

Why no coverage of such on the MSN?? Maybe needed time for more coverage of Justin Beiber roast?
Billy beat me to it.
These ignorant fucks are rioting because they want more free shit, they want the governments to go more in debt, they want more shit than they are already getting, and there is ZERO understanding that free shit is not free, and that someone, something, somewhere ultimately has to pay for it.
They just want MORE!

How dumb can people be? Rioting is counter productive. Now the European states will have to hire more cops, enroll more soldiers, build more prisons and camps, and raise taxes to control the terrorists who want to burn and destroy.
Some questions… Why are the police parking their cars in the open instead of in compounds or in underground garages? Why haven’t the European cops adopted the Kent State, Ferguson, Charlie Hebdo, Patriot Act solution? When people threaten the State like the Frankfurt protestors have been doing, those in power need to use their power. If some terrorists are shot, more disappear, and even more are jailed and hounded by the courts and government continually, there won’t be any more riots. Peace, Democracy, and Liberty need to be protected.
Remember what Lincoln said as he began the Civil War, “We need to suspend the Constitution and law so that we can save the government and the State.” The same applies in Europe today.
It starts.
