Also on the tour the criminals of the protest
Delinquents of the protest which, like “gramigna”, spread and infest. From the rugby during the premiership final to the Twickenham stadium in London when two echo activists years ago entered the field sprinkling it with orange paint, to the Diamond League of Athletics in Stockholm when in four with a banner they blocked the final of the 400 obstacles. From the Glasgow World Cup when the ecologists of “Just Stop Oil” set off on the road by blocking the runners for over 50 minutes at the fifth stage of today with arrival in Naples when on the promenade in via Caracciolo a protester crossed the road with its banner putting the life of Taco Van der Hoorn and Enzo Paleni at risk, and of the group then chased seventy per hour. It should be clarified immediately that, not as environmentalists claim or those who defend them, all these forms of protest are not peaceful protests. On the contrary. Blocking a sporting event, blocking athletes, blocking a road with people who are perhaps going to Pacific’s work has nothing. They are violent manifestations that should be prevented with equal strength by stopping, denouncing, judging who arrogates the (non -existent) right to block a ring road, a highway, the final of an athletic race or a cycling world championship, a stage of the Giro. In reality, to define these “imbecilli” demonstrators, as often happens and how often it is part of politics, states from the problem and tends to derubare this kind of “marachelle” actions. In reality, however, these demonstrators, these eco-activists, who try with such gestures to attract attention to a dispute or their cause, are violent who protest violently. And as such police and governments should treat them. Today in via Caracciolo the Lord who protested for who knows what and honestly “who cares” has jeopardized the life of cyclists. It is a crime, it must be pursued.
