re: #121 ProTARDISLiberal

Right now, the people I am seeing who are trying to be apologists for the AKP are essentially saying that the economy is good, so there should be no protests, and the opposition is trying to gin up protests and overthrow the state.

Simpletons. There are more important things than money.

True, but this is a bad time for protests. With things in Syria still horrific and the Sunni-Shia flare-up in Iraq, unrest in Turkey could well set the whole region on fire. It might be wise for the protestors to back off.
