"She ruined my granddaughter," screamed a distraught woman who was on the streets of Niš a moment earlier attacked with a knife Dean of the Faculty of Philosophy Natalia Jovanovic.
And she shouts that she has a certificate that she is "abnormal".
The knife is the usual, small, sharp one, with a wooden scabbard, which everyone has in the house. Why would anyone wear it on the street? Why would you throw a can of food at people before that? How on earth would he think that Natalija Jovanović "ruined" her granddaughter?
For the misdeeds of mentally disturbed people, often no one can answer before the law, not even themselves.
However, this woman did not attack a random passer-by, but targeted a female dean at the gathering place for the protest. You don't have to look for inspiration in this case for a long time.
Drawing a target
For months, President Aleksandar Vučić and his minions have been repeating on all channels that Natalija Jovanović is a criminal, just like her husband.
In a bizarre way, after supporting the students, Jovanović found herself the target of some kind of investigation, and then Vučić was granted amnesty from prosecution, ostensibly fulfilling the students' demands.
But then he said that Natalija Jovanović "is a naked criminal, and he leads the demonstrations in Niš, the wife of Baneta Banana, who has more expensive purses than I have eaten an ice cream cone in my life, and pretends to be a great revolutionary."
So and so tabloids toured for months, drawing a target on the head of this woman.
Now, faster and better, Ana Brnabić spoke up to brag about how the progressives are morally superior - they condemn all violence, including that committed by mentally unstable elderly people, even though the injuries are minor!
Not a word about the regime's responsibility. And it wasn't so long ago, after the assassination of Slovak Prime Minister Robert Fitz, that Brnabić accused the opposition in Serbia of inspiring mentally unstable people to kill Vučić.
Thugs and unstable
In five months, thousands of small and large demonstrations, marches, performances against corruption, protests and against this government were held in Serbia. Protests were held in over 400 places.
While Vučić occasionally "suspects" that the people - his, the majority and the "decent" ones - are boiling over, you can't really see it on the streets. The support for the protests is huge.
Apart from the progressive thugs who occasionally attacked the students, only a few individuals hit the citizens during the protest. Some with cars - by crazy luck no one was killed there - and now with a knife.
A regime that can no longer find a hundred people in Belgrade to stand proudly at the SNS market stand, which announces "the largest rally in history"so he tramples it and does not maintain it, that regime counts on the support of a handful of loyalists, drug dealers, and criminals.
And, there, on some unstable citizen who hears on Pink and Informer who are the targets, who "ruined" their children and who should be eliminated.
It is a pitiful last straw of a regime in decline. Poor, but dangerous. It would be good if this was the last blood shed in Nis, but the probability of that is small.
