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.

2 people dead over the course of half a week of protesting/rioting sounds more like isolated incidents than the police deliberately looking to kill protesters.

Watching CNN and they did have plenty on Turkey. The anchorman said, "the situation is dangerous in Turkey". That "Turkey a key NATO ally has major problems". He compared Turkey to Cairo , what happen in Cairo with the protests.

They also had a Turkish columnist who said, the PM has done a good job when it comes to the Turkish economy. But that he likes to tell people what is right for them. Columnist said the people do not want this. They want more say in making the decisions when it comes to running Turkey.

US secretary of State also commented on the situation. He supported democracy and for the Turkish police to restrain themselves, something like that.

So it seem Turkish allies are becoming worried.

I hope the protesters will overthrow Erdogans islamo-fascist regime and not just stop on that point. After that they should ban islam, burn mosques and close the page of a tyranicalli religion in that country.

It is interesting to see the reactions in the former province Bosnia where Erdogan is popular as if he is the Messiah personally.

After the terrible murder the police has completely left the area, the military forces have replaced them and there is no tension at the moment, but the crowd is said to be very angry.

I'm so sad now... Our revolutionary martyr. From now on I'm more determined to take down the government.

What exactly has Erdogan done?

What exactly has Erdogan done?

I'll tell you what he's done... he's a fascist! He hates freedom and democracy, he is a genocidal maniac who physically murdered 3 people.

I saw several posts of you in this thread and you still don't know what the hell is going on? don't even bother.

An expected reaction from a person like you. If he was an American citizen I'm sure it would have been different.

I can't just understand what kind of people you are, those 3 people mean nothing for you, just a low statistic or something, fuck your humanity

No, like seriously, this whole situation has made me confused. All I heard is "conservative, Islamist agenda" and he's a "dictator", which both dont give specifics.

Perhaps no one has answered his questions?

Basically he has moved Turkey closer and closer towards abandoning secularism over the past 10 years and has made the country far more authoritarian.

You realize he was one of the protesters, don't you?

The thing is...I'm not really sure what this guy has done, except be an insensitive ass. I know for certain he doesn't deserve to die as you posted earlier. If you can give me specifics, that warrants death for him, not vague cries of "violated our privacy and rights" or "he killed three people, even though he actually didn't," then by all means.

Otherwise, I'm gonna starting to wonder if Turkey is a nation of whiners, who can't even behave democratically.

2015 if the AKP is voted out, which is unlikely if this protest goes nowhere.
