watch LIVE feed, streaming, Greeks do democracy
Thanks to a DUer who posted this link. Thousands in front of the Parliament building. I saw a tear gas canister detonated and the crowed roared its disapproval. There appears to be a police dog keeping the people in front under control. A double line of guards with shields and batons. Banners and chanting -- the sound of democracy. Stand in solidarity.
