After the city of Dresden has already banned the corona protests of the “lateral thinking” initiative, a rally by the AfD on Saturday was also prohibited.

It was entitled “Enough!

We'll open our mouths! ”For 500 people at Neumarkt.

"From the point of view of the assembly authority, the ban on the AfD rally was necessary to prevent supporters of the forbidden 'lateral thinking demonstrations' from finding a legal contact point in the city on that day," the city announced on Thursday.

One wants to prevent a situation like on March 13th in Dresden.

In Dresden on March 13, hundreds of critics of the Corona measures gathered in the city, despite a ban on a “lateral thinking” demo, which was also confirmed by the courts - at times the protests got out of control.

According to the police, twelve police officers were injured and almost 50 criminal offenses were recorded.

As in previous cases, the applicant for the “lateral thinking” demonstration again submitted an urgent application against the ban to the Dresden Administrative Court.

According to the court on Thursday, a decision should be made quickly.

According to its own information, the Dresden Police Department is preparing for different deployment scenarios.

“The police operation will affect a large part of the Dresden center.

However, a final prognosis of possible priorities is hardly possible in advance, ”said the management.

During the operation you will be supported by colleagues from North Rhine-Westphalia and Saxony-Anhalt as well as by the Saxon riot police and the federal police.

Due to the meeting on April 17, 2021, some significant traffic restrictions are possible in Dresden city center.

The Saxon AfD boss Jörg Urban had explicitly committed to the Corona protests on the street last Saturday at the AfD's federal party conference in Dresden.

The AfD has more in common with these citizens than they may separate in detail.

The AfD is not a “sterile parliamentary party” and belongs to the demonstrators on the streets.

"Every demonstrator, every critic of the government is a potential AfD voter and maybe even a future party member," said Urban.
