Firemen, foamy protest

[An archist]

Several firemen protested in Brussels last thursday. Because of language laws wich are inadequate, several people aren't getting promoted.
They went to the place where the minister's desk is and filled the street with foam.

probely, once saw some awsome footage of an (i think 60's) belgian firemen strike who actualy refused to ride out to fires anymore. The police came to evict them from their stations so the miltary could use the equipment to scab and break the strike. But offcourse the flimsy watercannons of the riot police are no match for the hoses of the firemen and they are literarly hosed down.
:lol:

I don't know where to find that, but there are some clips of a more recent firemen protest where the cops and the firemen spray each other with water.
