On Saturday 6th of December at around 10pm, two Greek policemen, 37-year-old Epaminondas Korkoneas and 31-year-old Vassilis Saraliotis, were on patrol in a central street by Exarchia square, in the centre of Athens. There they had a verbal argument with a small group of young people. During the argument, one of the officers, Korkoneas, pulled his gun and twice shot a 16-year-old male, Andreas (Alexandros) Grigoropoulos. Andreas was taken to Evangelismos Hospital, and declared to be dead on arrival. According to eye-witnesses, the officer had been swearing at Andreas, and exposing his genitals, before shooting him.

I can't tell you how much I hate that lowlife on the left. He's a disgrace to Greece.

Police are supposed to protect people, not beat them down and shoot them! If they do that, they are the lowest, most brutal criminals in the world. :X

Glad to see how the people of Greece are fighting back at the establishment and showing the police that they work for the people not for corrupt puppets. POWER TO THE GREEK PEOPLE!

Capitalism and religion kill the animals, individuals and society. They can kill you in a variety of ways, slow or quick. There can be no happiness or peace on this planet, no prosperity for the masses, as long as this slavery continues.
