Fire Fighters versus Police.

This picture has been speeding around the net today. The people of Spain are protesting against austerity cuts. Well it looks like the fire-fighters are on the side of the people. I think the picture is epic and personally I am on the side of the fire-fighters.

The firefighters should be armed with flamethrowers.

Go firefighters!

I don't understand, can I clarify to me what it means that these Firemen are protesting against austerity measures, Why has this been going viral, what's the difference between this and all the other protests?

Can we get a link for this?

They should have brought their water cannons with them, give them snouts a taste of their own medicine.

Come on "the people" we can take this world back.

Best I can supply in regards to a link..

I like the ninja stance the middle firefighter has going on, I bet he put 3 or 4 down before being battered.
I know a few coppers and a few firepeople and they have always had it in for each other, had to break up a few fights between them when I ran pubs.

Back to the photo I wonder how long it will be before the police are joining them? then who do they fight? hopefully the ruddy bankers

Ok..someone call in the Arson Investigators to handle these cops, they'll make things even.

Huff Post - Firefighters Clash With Riot Police In Spain During Austerity Protest

Thanks for that..

In an odd turn of events, firefighters were the ones starting the fires at the latest austerity protest in Spain. Spanish firefighters clashed with riot police in Barcelona Wednesday as they protested against spending cuts in Catalonia, the economically powerful northeastern region
