National customs

Well, it seems like storming the White House is already a custom here in Kyrgyzstan. For the first time it happended in march, and for a few hours that was fine, but the following events have shaken everybody, no matter whether they have supported the revolution or not.

It all seemed calm from then, though. There were still some small-scale disorders, however the police along with people militia took care of these, and everything settled down.

But now the White House seems to be taken over again, by some unknown group of people, numbering about 2-5 thousands. There is no certain information yet, though all this seems not to frighten us anymore, but rather call out our anger.

People I have spoken to all say that such actions cannot be treated calmly anymore, and it has to be dealt with by force, using either police or people militia. Many are ready to volounteer and throw the agressors out of the White House.

Personally, I don't think this would be wise to start a massive civil disorder. However, if our governement won't do anything with this, and it will seem the so-called 'liberty fighters' would transform into marauders once again, I'll go out at the streets along with militia.

Though I still hope that won't be necessary.
