Anti-Lockdown Protesters Smash EU Diplomatic Service HQ – LewRockwell LewRockwell.com

Chaotic scenes unfolded on the streets of the Belgian capital, Brussels, on Sunday, as thousands of protesters joined a mass march against Covid-19 health passes and other restrictions introduced by European governments in the name of combating the pandemic.
