Italy: Lake Garda Braces for Foreign Thuggery on Republic Day (June 2)

Peschiera del Garda


June 2 is Republic Day in Italy and there are big celebrations in Peschiera del Garda in Northern Italy. Last year, however, there were major disturbances by young males of foreign origin at Peschiera and on the trains leaving and departing its station. Numerous Italian females were subjected to sexual assaults on the trains.

It looks like Italy is expecting more of the same this year. The below article from Il Giornale is translated by Fousesquawk.

June 2 is upon us, but it will not be just an occasion to celebrate the republic because, in the wake of what happened last year, there is the risk of being a day of confrontations and violence on Lake Garda. (There is) a social media drumbeat for a new gathering on the shores of the lake on the part of foreign and second-generation boys ready to generate new disorders that risk endangering the safety of tourists and non-tourists alike who would like to enjoy a day in one of the most beautiful areas in our country. A few days ago, Minister Matteo Salvini replied to the social media reports of "young thugs", promising that the State will do everything to prevent it. On the other hand, the boys responded in kind, challenging the minister and the government.

Last year, there were 2,000 boys who devastated Peschiera del Garda and the trains that left and arrived at the station. The gathering, in fact, attracts young thugs from all over Italy, and it is especially the "Baby Gnags" that show up, using the occasion to challenge each other for territorial dominance. Ancestral dynamics that cause worry for the social stability of our country and which the government is trying to counter. "Matteo, we are waiting for you....Actually,  it is better if you don't come," the foreign adolescents are saying now directed at the minister of Transport and Infrastructure.

The most serious element of this situation is represented by the usual hubris and arrogance demonstrated against Italian institutions on the part of these boys. In fact, mocking the security system that is being set up to  (control) movements, the young thugs are letting it be known they already have a Plan B capable of evading the network being set up. In order to prevent acts of hooliganism, yesterday, a high-level online meeting was held among the 6 prefectures principally involved to coordinate containment actions to activate in case the event is repeated.

While police monitoring of the web is constant on all social platforms, for purposes of prevention, 5 young people intending to participate in violent behavior have already been reported to Digos*. Today, searches have been carried out against the 5, which involved the men of Digos (offices) in Milan, Vicenza, and Rovigo. Three have already been reported to police for being responsible for various crimes and for gravitating within the baby gangs. Their parents have been summoned as responsible for their actions.

* Digos- Special investigations and operations police

*Update: June 2. From media accounts, it appears the day has gone off peacefully (so far) due to a massive presence of police.
