The problem with this is that unless you work for the government (i.e. EAC) you'll be working during those times! The real protest should be in front of the presidential palace to insist that the donkey who is responsible for blowing up the power station be pulled from power and held accountable for his actions. The other protest should be at the court when the poor soul who rightly so called him a "vlakas" will be tried. Everyone should show up holding banners calling for the vlakas resignation! Will he have the entire population arrested?

The Attorney General dropped the charges against that bloke and some other people who faced similar charges. They were worried that they would lose the cases when the alleged vlaka had to go to court to prove he wasn't!

I stand corrected. I knew they dropped some of the cases, but now I see they finally wised up. In fact perhaps all the vlakas should file a class action lawsuit against this guy for insulting them with such a reference to our great leader!
