Monday 3rd of August 2015: a pro & anti Pegida rally in Leipzig

Monday 3rd of August 2015: A rally in Leipzig which drew both supporters and opponents of Pegida…
These seven videos of the rally in Leipzig which attracted both supporters and opponents of Pegida were taken by myself at about 6 o’clock on Monday evening the 3rd of August. I used a small hand held video camera to record just some of what was going on. Although I have good holiday German much of what was said by the various speakers was way beyond my level of comprehension.
There was also a strong police presence - I counted more than 60 police cars, many of them from Dresden, the city where Pegida was launched less than 12 months ago.
The police made sure that the supporters and opponents of Pegida were kept apart - I estimate that there were almost 100 yards between both groups so that, even though there was much verbal abuse, nobody got hurt as far as I could see.
