Renowned journalist Enver Robelli has commented on the massive beatings of protesters by the Police, even when the latter pose no danger.
"Beating citizens who are under full police control and no longer pose a threat is a crime. Perpetrated by a thief in uniform and perpetrated by an irresponsible government with a prime minister who only seeks revenge."
This approach only fuels the blind rage of people who believe they have nothing to lose - even though they have their lives ahead of them. Such is the delusion that dances over the installation in honor of Gjergj Fishta's work.
Bad power also brings out the evil of the hopeless classes. The ruler who is not stopped by institutions, one day will be stopped by extra-institutional actions. Or they will try to stop him.
The whip does not bring social peace. Nor does the stone. But both can be misused as tools to incite tension until rational people take charge.
"In democratic societies, the one who has all the power in his hands and is responsible for the well-being of all citizens, including those who throw stones, steps up and seeks solutions," he writes.
