My personal comment is that you have to notice that the policemen are dressed for combat. Also, they concistently throw military grade tear gases that are not allowed even for war and they are they same kind that the Israel army uses. Additionally, most of the people they fight with molotof are govorment funded units (some them being the police itself) with a role to provoke and in the aftermath destroy every demonstration in violence. All the above have been going on for years now with incremental increase of violence towards unsuspected people, young and old people.
Greece doesn't have a demogratic regime for too long. However believes otherwise he doesn't understand that in a democracy first and foremost, the goverment fears the people and not the other way around.
