Anti - ACTA protest Bucharest

Around 300 people gathered today in Bucharest to protest against ACTA.There were more people than I expected and less people than I hoped.
Even though the protest for some reason was not given the proper media attention, the protesters endured -10 degrees cold in order to urge the authorities to ban ACTA in Romania. It was a peaceful protest done by a very enthusiastic crowd, mostly young educated people.
Hats off to them !

                                                                                                                                                                    




To quote one of the slogans we shouted there today:
" ROMANIA, WAKE UP !!!"
