Here's the story on the protester who jumped from a balcony in the Romanian Parliament:

"Romania's Parliament cancelled a no-confidence vote on Thursday after a father whose payments for his disabled child had been cut by the Romanian government leapt from a balcony in the parliament in protest against the decision. He was not seriously injured. A loud thud reverberated in the chamber after the man, Adrian Sobaru - identified by the country's public television station as one of its engineers - hit the benches shortly after Prime Minister Emil Boc greeted the lawmakers. As he jumped, he could be heard shouting: 'Boc, you've taken away the rights of our children'. Mr Sobaru, who suffered fractures to the face, and other non life-threatening injuries, was able to get into the parliament because he works as an electrician for the national television station. He then shouted "Liberty and Justice" as he was taken to hospital. He was also wearing a T-shirt with the slogan 'You've killed our future', according to reports."

This guy will probably become a public hero in Romania, maybe the whole EU!

2. This is the desperation that many people feel in their lives

as our ability to support our loved ones and ourselves is being taken from us. My prayers and best wishes are with this man who leaped out of such desperation. Good thing this guy isn't an American, some here would call him sanctimonious.

4. Latvia and Romania have been hit with the most severe austerity reforms.

All so the fucking Satanic BONDHOLDERS don't have to take a haircut!
