Video: Terror In Turkey: Cops Attack Private Homes in the Middle of the Night

Mass protests across Turkey have left streets covered in blood, hundreds injured and an unknown number of people arrested.

Now, nearly 5 days after riots and protests spread throughout the country, police are settling scores.

And according to one video posted by a witness, they are coming after people sleeping peacefully in their homes.

Watch as police mass in front of a home, smash its windows, and then launch what look to be tear gas canisters into the dwelling. Moments after, police leave, suggesting that the intention wasn’t to arrest anyone, but rather, to terrorize them.

While the protests reportedly started when activists staged a sit-in at a local park scheduled to be torn down for a commercial project, it has escalated well beyond a typical protest, with people of all walks of life taking the opportunity to reject recent government efforts to control the populace:

On top of all that, the government control over its people’s personal lives has become unbearable as of late. The state, under its conservative agenda passed many laws and regulations concerning abortion, cesarean birth, sale and use of alcohol and even the color of lipstick worn by the airline stewardesses.

People who are marching to the center of Istanbul are demanding their right to live freely and receive justice, protection and respect from the State. They demand to be involved in the decision-making processes about the city they live in.
