Podias ter escolhido o artigo do público que não está atrás de uma paywall e explica melhor os dois lados. O que demonstra que não é claro, é que a decisão demorou uma semana a mais a sair do que previsto e ainda está presa a interpretações da lei. Aqui prevaleceu a considerar que a utilização de tendas faz parte do tipo de protesto - tal como…

Stupid exaggerated example, but I'll give you another example, that happens at an minute basis and creates more risks to people: Unlawful parking of cars on the sidewalks: Does the police beat the driver because he didn't obey the law? No, in fact they rarely write a parking ticket because they are too lazy for that, and all over the place…

Again, so far they haven't disobeyed any legal police request (like the removing of tent, which was one of the iffy points and there is now a court decisions allowing it). And while they can identify people, just fining people on the spot is not legal. I expect most if not at all fines that might have been passed to be challenged in court and…

Marxists? Are you crazy? The left is almost dead in Portugal and there is almost no class consciousness or discourse in that sense. What you have is young and older citizens from left to right protesting for right to pay a house with their salary. What in the hell are the marxists called for? And you know what, yeah the lack of functionality of…

People are pointing out the nefarious laws that this government wants to introduce, that will make access to affordable housing worse. People are fed up of years and years of lawmaking and policy making that has eroded their quality of life. And now in Portuguese…

IMO these students need to be handled much more roughly in interviews. They are always given softballs. They are always asked if they know the rioters which of course they deny. They need to be asked how they are sure it is not part of their movement if they dont know them. They also must be asked how they expect the government to provide more…

Lier... Please show me a video of him pointing the firearm at the protestors. I've seen two videos, one including the moment where he picked the firearm. He, and his collegues were being chased by multiple people looking loke angry dogs and he just picks it and keeps it pointer towards the ground. Additionally his other 3 colleagues suffered…

The point it is not what they are asking, the point is their right to be there. You are already diverging because you are against it and so you will always support the police intervention no matter what. You will always find an excuse.

Stop lying. They support legal changes that reduce corporate ownership, price fixing, unreasonable rent hikes and that favour the increase the offer of available housing.

It doesn't matter what they're advocating, the subject is the right to protest, gathering and occupation of public spaces by civilians.

You know, a protest can be both peaceful and illegal, these aren't mutually exclusive Honestly only one of those should matter

And at the same time they left an unauthorized neonazi event happen without authorization...

The conformity of the Law is been contested. No grafittis last night at either protests.
