You must be joking. Didn't you see the video footage and the photos? And, if you please, how do armed policemen compare to gay, socialist immigrants? As I see it, the only connection between the two is that the former would very happily bash the heads of the latter. And they often do, even in Greece. Police is more or less the same everywhere, and incorporates a lot of fascist elements. Although this does not make all countries fascist. And I have to agree with Terrance when he says that the real fascists (here in Greece, too) are most ardent anti-globalizationists.
