In all cases, democracy itself seems to set traps. Isn't the story of Maliqi a tragic trap when Enea Mekolli sets out, gun in hand, to the secret recesses of the Lozhani camp where he will clash with a man sought by democratic law?
Even when a 'democracy fighter' is martyred, it still happens that we have fallen into the trap of Democracy...
Yesterday, the last police officer, Enea Mekolli, fell on duty. He fell in a village in Maliqi. A deep area where the perpetrator of the murder had built a 'shield' tougher than nature itself. He had committed crimes before. The police wanted to bring him to the cell, according to the law. He was surrounded by dogs and weapons. He was also in the presence of the most beloved creature in the world, his mother.
He shot with ferocity and killed Enean, the son of another mother; and wounded a colleague of his. He had learned the weapon to perfection, yes, in the state army, and he shot at the state police army. Both sides, once upon a time, had been 'fighters of democracy'. The perpetrator defended his 'democratic freedom', while the victim also defended this freedom, but a much broader freedom.
That's it?
Not only that. Let's get to the question of why it is so difficult to distinguish the line between 'democracy' that protects the individual murderer hiding among dogs and the right of the majority to live a normal life? I am a witness to how many people today who expressed pain for Aeneas, after that also expressed sympathy for how 'that wonderful shooter lived in a hut... How he trained and shot with a gun...”.
None of these feelings can be clearly shared in front of those people who have mixed feelings. Can you clearly share the feelings that some people have about the event of the past few days in Zvërnec, Vlorë? You can't. Even about the sensational event, I heard many people say that 'well, well, the project is huge, it will bring us great development..., but why was there no transparency!?'. There are also others who don't have what it takes to be transparent. Others who don't care about Zvërnec, nor Albania.
Very difficult to clearly distinguish the lines of democracy and make democratic decisions.
In all cases, democracy itself seems to set traps. Isn't the story of Maliqi a tragic trap when Enea Mekolli makes his way with a gun in his hand to the secret recesses of the Lozhani camp where he will clash with a man sought by democratic law? This one, with eight colleagues, will put the democratic will in place. Even the man who hides in the camp, and who is called a criminal, also carries a gun, trains dogs, hides far away and shoots with a sniper..., but for 'democratic' reasons. He has even been trained as a soldier in the democratic institutions of the 'democratic state'.
The trap that democracy sets in this case is clear: Between individuals or groups of individuals self-determined for their own interests... And the collective interests, even of the majority. This is the trap.
As in the recent case of Zvërnec. There too, an act of force by the police served as a reason to wage war against democracy. Those who started the war initially said they were defending the 'Greek minority'. Then they said they were defending the pelicans. Then they said they wanted transparency. They also said they were 'for democracy', although they forgot both the violated 'Greek-Albanian' man and the pelicans and transparency. They flocked to Tirana. They entered the bars of Tirana, lifted people from their tables, shouted 'in the square, not in the cafe', made serious gestures. In the square they demanded to throw out America; this was the goal. They wanted Palestine before Israel and America. Deep work. They demand that projects worth billions of euros not be implemented. They want a poor and vassal Albania. In the square, both extreme leftists and those incited by foreign countries unfriendly to our country clash. These people say that even the terrorist movement Antifa is a democracy, therefore they belong to it.
Democracy itself is caught in a trap: Is this the will of the people?
Democratic institutions are under attack from the manipulation of self-interested individuals, from which meaningless responses are produced. The will of the people, even as a notion of democracy, is trivialized. Neither the will of the people, nor broad democracy, can make decisions. Chaos and poverty are produced.
The trap lies in the fact that the state is not like the individual. The individual has the right to set up camp in the mountains, to keep dogs and guns, to shoot 'for democracy'. The statesman was killed yesterday. But I heard some people praising the murderer.
