Carabinieri blitz yesterday afternoon in Mestre with an enhanced deployment of patrols in extraordinary land monitoring service. Identifications, document control, checks on customers of premises and inspections in public establishments. The soldiers sifted through the station area, reaching the streets of the center with men and vehicles. The operation, which is part of those organized and arranged by the provincial committee for public order and safety coordinated by the prefect Michele Di Bari and directed by the commissioner Gaetano Bonaccorso, makes use of the inter-force device developed for safety which yesterday, until at night, it was carried out by a massive presence of carabinieri in the main streets and along the secondary arteries of the mainland.
Meanwhile, in via Piave, the debate on the video-parody of the comic duo, Carlo & Giorgio, has ignited, who have once again taken on the role of the “toxic” mestres by filming the sketch in the most discussed street of the station. «More than a parody, it is a cross-section of reality – commented Giorgio Pustetto – that even we who have lived here for twenty years know and is more crude than how we have represented it. The idea was to convey our solidarity and closeness to all the associations that work every day to improve the area to those who have been enduring this situation for years. We’re comedians, we couldn’t have done it differently – said Giorgio – and if this were to help give birth to a reflection and perhaps a strong impulse from those who are “above”, so be it».
Posted on the YouTube channel on Thursday morning, the video aroused various reactions. “We are for the freedom of satire but this stigmatization of people who no longer have basic rights, a home, a job and health care, is hypocritical and misleading – says the “ViviAmo Marghera” committee – The use of drugs is not connected only to those who are on the street, it is a transversal phenomenon that goes from the student who smokes to relax to the entrepreneur who sniffs. There is an evolution in the use of substances that it would make sense to understand with the help of professionals to give a 360-degree and continuous response over time to those who not only have to get out of addiction, but have to rebuild their lives by breaking a spiral that often leads to the abyss. It makes no sense for us to add fuel to the fire.” The committee has just concluded a questionnaire administration to drug users, interviewing almost two hundred people, in four months, at the Serd, at the drop in, in via Piave and in Marghera.
The thought of Giampaolo Conte, historical resident of via Piave, is completely different. «Carlo & Giorgio’s sketch – which had nine thousand views in one day – is the right way to send a message. Pleasant, impactful, it does not offend anyone and everyone can accept this representation of reality because it is the one we touch with our hands». Nicola Ianuale of the “Via Piave Working Group” speaks of a “different” language, which does not exhaust reality but neither does it diminish it. “A very effective way of raising awareness, not to underestimate but to launch a provocation”.
