Helicopters

Today we went to the topkapipalace where you didn't notice anything about the protests at all. But as we speak there is a helicopter flying above our neighborhood (Taksim), at the picture the white dot in the right upper corner. The protesters are trying to blind the pilots with laser lights and red light balls (the dot at the left site of the picture). Earlier this evening the police bombed the park with teargas out of the helicopters and some people even say the government has poisoned the drinking water, what wasn't drinkable at all, with pepper gas, but I don't think so. Today you also saw normal life started again and the most citizens of Istanbul don't even care about it anymore. So if you stay away for about 200 meters of Taksim square and don't drink the water out of the tabs (a thing you wouldn't do any time here because it's disgusting) you can live your daily life.
