If it is established that before the tragedy in Knjaževac, the competent institutions made an appointment, no one will be surprised. How many more families are in danger due to illness, lack of professional care, poverty? Instead of a systemic solution to this problem, the regime spends money on Šapić's singing and dancing
Twenty-two-year-old AM he killed in Knjaževac from the hunting rifle of the immobile grandfather, father and grandmother - both seriously ill. He allegedly told the police that he could no longer care for them.
It is not known whether and from whom AM asked for help. Nor did anyone offer it to him. Did he even have anyone to turn to? Then again, maybe it's just an excuse... Answers to this question should be given by the court.
However, one cannot help but put this serious family murder in the context of "Family Day" by Aleksandar Šapić. These are mostly poorly attended concerts on Belgrade's Trg Republike. What does this singing and plucking have to do with the real needs of families? There are none at all. It is not known how much citizens are paying for this political marketing of the former, but perhaps not the new, mayor. What is known is that this wasted money could be used to systematically solve the problems that plague so many families. Starting from kindergartens to nursing homes - among other things.
If it is established that the competent institutions made an appointment before the tragedy in Knjaževac, no one will be surprised. In Serbia, it has almost become the rule, not the exception at all. How many more families are in danger due to illness, lack of professional care, poverty?
However, instead of strengthening social services, the government is incomparably more interested in meaningless stadiums and all other forms of installation. That is why it propagates and justifies aggression, social Darwinism, denial of labor rights, insensitivity, bare exploitation, destruction of the environment, cynicism... Let no one wonder where so much violence in society and, especially, among young people, comes from. Children see well who succeeds in life and how; they see on pink televisions and what are the real family values of the progressive "elite".
For all issues of vital importance, citizens and as they show interest. What they really don't have it for, are quarrels and insolence in the opposition. That is why calls for unity, boycott, civil disobedience, and even going to the polls, without which there is no change, seem so shabby and unconvincing.
Opposition parties are not social services, nor do any of them expect them to be. But can they finally wake up and turn to the real problems of citizens, including the tragedy in Knjaževac? Because, no matter what the authorities say and no matter what they promise, it's not there.
The regime's retaliation will be dire if the resistance falters. Now they want to imprison the people who talked about overthrowing the government because they were supposedly overthrowing the state. But the state was hijacked and overthrown by the regime a long time ago
The Ministry of Public Investment submitted a request for a building permit for the construction of a new building for the Belgrade Philharmonic. Given that it is known that the project is too expensive and that there is no money for it, it seems that this too is just another colorful lie
The knee-jerk Supreme Being trusts in the local elections in Kosjerić and Zaječar. It must not be forgotten that for 13 years he poured heavy poisons, especially in the province, and that detoxification is a long and painful process.
If the various opponents of Vučić's regime are unable to help the student youth, they could at least not retaliate. They have been working the same way and with the same disastrous results for too long to expect anyone to ask them anything
There are no more students ahead and us behind them. Now we are all in the same situation: we drove the beast out into the open. We know how it goes
