Since May 2, 1808, an army last night occupied the streets and squares of Malasaña. There were French, but your boss has a surname Gallo. They were there to protect the city and its citizens of the parties that until five years ago was celebrated with great fun for neighbors and other Madrid until there came.
What I saw last night was dozens and dozens of municipal police (40 or 50, calculating bulk) embedded in body armor and looking nervous. Surrounded the Dos de Mayo square and prevented the passage of any alcoholic beverage (even though it is forbidden by law antibotellón is drinking, not wearing closed bottles in the street).
The police presence is not new. Meets this weekend for a year. Struck me how absurd it is to keep a measure in a neighborhood that is not particularly controversial and certainly not the only one practiced bottles. Some day the cops disappear and return the previous situation.
A friend told me yesterday that, in the event that Gallardón had lived 200 years ago, had sided with the French . Sure is right. Does not understand that by force can not change the customs.
