"How can the government stop young people having a good time? Fight this bollocks."


Taking Liberties


Era il 1994 quando il primo ministro inglese, il conservatore John Major, promulgò il Criminal Justice and Public Order Act, una serie di nuove leggi che prendevano di mira in particolare i rave illegali e i cosiddetti free parties, festival di musica elettronica autogestiti e gratuiti.

Vi ricorda qualcosa? Quasi trent'anni dopo in Italia il nuovo governo di estrema destra come primissimo provvedimento urgente scrive un decreto del tutto analogo, che andrà a limitare i diritti fondamentali dei cittadini, con l'obiettivo neanche tanto nascosto di colpire - oltre che i cosiddetti rave - le occupazioni e le iniziative sindacali e politiche. La risposta deve essere la stessa che dettero i Prodigy: Fuck 'em and their law
What we're dealing with here is a total lack of respect for the law [1]

I'm the law and you can't beat the law
I'm the law and you can't beat the law
I'm the law and you can't beat the law
I'm the law and you can't beat the law
I'm the law and you can't beat the law
I'm the law and you can't beat the law
I'm the law and you can't beat the law
Fuck 'em and their law
Crackdown at sundown

I'm the law and you can't beat the law
Fuck 'em and their law

Crackdown at sundown

I'm the law and you can't beat the law
I'm the law and you can't beat the law
I'm the law and you can't beat the law
I'm the law and you can't beat the law
I'm the law and you can't beat the law
Fuck 'em and their law
[1] The Prodigy resumes a Jackie Gleason’s dialogue in “Smokey And The Bandit” by Nal Heedham.
