Police take action against protesters after KATA protests
Police have detained several protesters who obstructed traffic in Budapest and brought charges in one case of violence against a police officer, among others, after a demonstration held against changes to the small entrepreneurs’ tax (kata) at the square in front of Parliament late on Wednesday.
The official website police.hu has said that while the police ensured citizens’ right to free expression of opinion and peaceful protest, they took action when demonstrators obstructed traffic in busy junctions.

Police have filed misdemeanor charges against three people who blocked traffic in the junction of Andrássy Boulevard and Bajcsy-Zsilinszky Street in downtown Budapest.
Police have arrested a man who hit a police officer on the head with a chain, on suspicion of violence against a person in official capacity, and another for rowdy behaviour, the website said. Two people were arrested on Elisabeth Bridge for disobeying police instructions to keep to the pavement. Another two were detained on Margaret Bridge for similar reasons. Three people were restrained after refusing to obey police instructions.
Parliament on Tuesday adopted amendments to the regulations of the Itemised Tax for Small Businesses (kata), increasing the income threshold for taxpayers to 18 million forints (EUR 44,000) per year from 12 million, and restricting the circle of eligible entrepreneurs. Kata will be available for sole proprietors only from September 1. To eliminate hidden employment, only entrepreneurs providing services and goods for private customers would be eligible.

Why would protestors break the laws or attack police? Are people copying bad behavior of American BLM or ANTIFA? Unsocial behavior never results in support only in animosity.
Interesting.
What in ALL the on-going displeasure – being RIGHTLY “aimed” at the present Government of Hungary – under Prime minister – Victor Orban, is the NUMBER – of Citizens – who come from the side of Politics – that voted & supported the return to office – of this Fidesz Party led Government of Hungary.
Statistically – the figure would be INTERESTING.
Has the mirror or is it continuing to CRACK – under this growing “Under Seize” present Government of Hungary ?
Civilians – from the Fidesz Party base – in the examination of there conscience – looking at the Big Picture just not in present time but into the Grave un-certainty of the Future for Hungary – thought deeply – of there support Politically – to this present Fidesz led Government of Hungary ???
Their is vastness of HAPPENINGS – within Hungary, outside of the Shambles that our Economy is currently in, and continuing to trend downwards.
It must NEVER be FORGOTTEN – that under Democracy – is the RIGHT granted/Given to Citizens to openingly have a VOICE – express in an orderly manner – an OPINION.
Exercising of Citizens RIGHTS under Democracy – in the Political environment of Hungary – the “fragmentation” of Democracy – in the agenda of the present Fidesz Party led by Prime Minister – Victor Orban – styled under a Dictatorial Idea & Philosophy – that using Peoples Rights under Democracy – do not be the AGGRESSORS.
Those we oppose – “test “them, what attitude or responce – they Pursue, as there Defence, to the rightful use of orderly conducted questioning demonstrating or objections – under Democracy – to decisions, rulings and laws – they continue to place on us, the Citizens of Hungary.
Democracy – is Dialogue.
Democracy – in its CORE – has NO place for a “styled” process aligned and acting in a Dictatorial style & agenda.
Pigs!!!
