afdlpt blog 9 - [Picture Gallery] Protest against far-right AfD party meeting in Nuremberg

On Saturday June 9th more than 1000 people demonstrated against the party meeting of far-right AfD in Nuremberg. Several different groups rallied around the city-owned Meistersingerhalle. The party meeting comes just after the latest media scandal around AfD-leader Gauland as he stated the times of the cruel national-socialists’ reign and murder of millions of people by those are just a ‘bird-shit’ in thousands of years of German history. After early morning protest against the meeting of the far-right party members a memorial  was held as June 9th also marked the 13th anniversary of murdered Ismail Yasar that was killed by so called ‘NSU’ neo-nazi terror group. Protest was very peaceful – just several police officers of a riot police unit seemed to search trouble and provoked an escalation as they pushed into the memorial demonstration batting protesters leaving several wounded to then later arrest two activists. Some impression from protest:
