King Leonidas would fight for freedom, no matter whose freedom.

20-year old protestor was shot to death by a bullet in his head in Hatay. His name is Abdullah Cömert, he was a member of the CHP youth wing. Rest in peace, martyr. The second reported death so far.

I think the violence will rise now, it must. The police has gone extremely mad and we should start talking their language already.

2013 protests in Turkey or Gezi Park Protests are the protests that initially started as a peaceful environmentalist demonstration against the cutting off the trees in Gezi Park, then turned into anti-government protests across Turkey after police response to the environmentalists. Protests have been held in Turkey since 28 May 2013. The initial Istanbul protests were led by about 50 environmentalists against replacing Taksim Gezi Park with a reconstruction of the historic Taksim Military Barracks (demolished in 1940), with the possibility of housing a shopping mall. The protests developed into riots when a group occupying the park was attacked by police. The subjects of the protests have since broadened beyond the development of Taksim Gezi Park, developing into wider anti-government demonstrations. The protests have also spread to other cities in Turkey, and protests have been seen in other countries with significant Turkish communities. Prime Minister Recep Tayyip Erdoğan gave a number of speeches widely seen as inflammatory and dismissive of the protestors, and on 3 June left the country on a planned 3-day diplomatic tour of North African countries. On 3 June unions announced strikes for 4 and 5 June.
