The police in any country only follow orders. morality usually isn't part of the equation. They are trained to follow orders. In the US the police do many immoral things because they are ordered to. I don't buy the argument that Macedonia is different, its not, and Macedonians need to stop telling themselves that they are the only ones. Its adding unnecessary tension to an already tense situation and only destabilizing the country. Violence and sensationalism are not going to help our cause. What Macedonians need to understand is that the process to a better society is slow and painful, we want it all right now. All the grievances that are being brought up are 100% legitimate, and I and any normal person want to see all these problems solved. What we don't was is total chaos and anarchy to the point where the whole country is so vulnerable that it becomes a target for outside influence to take over.
If you haven't I recommend reading up on how Iceland in the face of bankruptcy was able to oust an entire political system and start over without a drop of blood being shed. The rebuilt there entire system form the ground up and also told the banks to fuck off. They did it by being clam, pragmatic, and honest. The first step of honesty is admitting what really going on, not causing drama for the sake of drama.
