Right-wing activist Toroczkai to face trial over anti-IMF demonstration

By

Noted Hungarian right-wing activist László Toroczkai could face trial within weeks for his role in a demonstration in March in which some 100 protesters lit torches outside the IMF building in Budapest.

Toroczkai, president of the Sixty-Four Counties Youth Movement, and his supporters were going to hand over a petition to the Hungarian representative of the International Monetary Fund but found the building empty. The protesters then lit torches of the sort used at football matches, left the building and walked to adjacent Szabadság Square, the site of violent riots in 2006 where Toroczkai encouraged his followers to continue their fight and resistance.

Toroczkai, who already faces criminal charges for breach of the peace in a different case, is accused of coercion related to the IMF demonstration. [origo.hu]

    He should be arrested for stupidity. No one was in the IMF offices that day. Did he ever think of making an appointment? What a friggin’ freak show..

      @Aloof,

      ‘Did he ever think of making an appointment?’

      ***Ring, ring**8

      ‘Hello, IMF office Budapest’ answers reception.

      ‘Yeah hi, my name is László Toroczkai…I’m calling to make an appointment. My friends and I, would like to protest the IMF and all that you stand for. We even have a petition, oh and tiki lights…now, what do you have available to accommodate us?’ asks the caller eagerly

      ‘One moment sir, let me put you through to legal’ comes the reply.

      Is this about what you had in mind Aloof…this is how it should have been handled?

      • Aloof

        Good god. Jobbik is a recognized political party in Hungary that is represented in Parliament. The IMF would absolutely meet with them if approached in a diplomatic, civilized manner and an agenda could be set. Whether anything would be accomplished is another matter.

        Jobbik had no agenda except to display their unsophistication, violence, immaturity and extremism that validates why they can’t be taken seriously as an alternative to Hungarian voters especially as a representatives of Hungary at the international level.

        So as usual you missed the point. So another day another embarassment for Hungary. Don’t you have something important to do like pick your kids up from school?

          @Aloser,

          ‘Jobbik is a recognized political party in Hungary that is represented in Parliament. The IMF would absolutely meet with them if approached in a diplomatic, civilized manner and an agenda could be set’

          Who said anything about Jobbik…this Laci guy is a right-winged activist…what does that have to do with them? Or, are you suggesting, that all right leaning people are Jobbik supporters?!?

          But all this aside…you’re not pretending are you?? You really are an idiot…

          ———-

          ‘Don’t you have something important to do like pick your kids up from school?’

          Make a comment about my kids again, I’ll rip off your head and shit down the hole. Is that clear you f*ck?

          • Aloof

            Well, well, well… we finally get to the real Justasking. Knew you were always hanging out just below the surface, always a hair trigger away.

            I wasn’t making a comment about your kids I was making a comment about you. You seem to be having comprehension problems lately regarding what people are actually saying and do it once again here.

            László Toroczkai, the founder of HVIM and Magyar Sziget will run as a Jobbik candidate at the fall municipal elections in Csongrád county… look it up.

            So another day another embarassment for Hungary…

            @Af*ck,

            YOU don’t get to mention my family in anyway shape or form, only I can.

            You wanna make a dig at me? You phrase it like ***’Don’t you have something important to do…like get a pedicure’? ***That is how you attack a person directly…you don’t go through the window the way you did…you piece of white-trash.

            Well, we don’t take rabid Hungarian nationalists seriously.

            Must be hard seeing your country in the dog house each and every day …

            Hell, the World’s in the doghouse for God’s sake!

    some 100 protesters lit torches
    —

    Has ‘leto’ confirmed the numbers, or is it ‘two dozen’ as usual when it is not a pro-Fidesz demo?

    Or to quote the one and famous ‘ricsi’:
    “ricsi says:

    ‘Hundreds’ LOL out of 10million population-pathetic whinging lefties and no doubt the ‘chosen ones’.”

    So this was “pathetic whinging” ‘righties’ “and no doubt the ‘chosen ones’”…?

      @Viking,

      ‘ lit torches’

      Focus my little Swede…they were tiki lights!!!!!

  • Freedom

    Another Hungarian dissident facing trial.

    I don’t think the political elites will be happy until every national dissident is facing trial and arrested, under house arrest, or sitting in jail with little evidence, or until their dead.

  • olga

    @ Freedom

    I am so sorry about these poor persecuted heroes of yours (may I assume that Budahazy is another innocent victim and goes under the “Hungarian dissident” label?

    I would offer to sponsor Toroczkai to Canada to avoid prosecution in Hungary but unfortunately he was kicked out from the county in 2008 upon his arrival as a visitor to Toronto as he was considered a security risk.

    I think he needs an assistant to keep track of welcome mats and IMF office hours – perhaps you could be of great service

    @ Aloof

    re your question to JA ” Don’t you have something important to do like pick your kids up from school?

    I feel it’s my duty to ensure a deep and lasting friendship between you and JA, thus I have to let you know why she reacted to that question with such “passion”

    Being a very observant person, I got the distinct impression that she is not a fan of yours just yet, and when she doesn’t like someone, watch out (I’ve seen it in person)) thus your mentioning her kids is off limits. At the same time I realize you worry about the children not being picked up on time, so I shall put your mind at ease and find out the answer on your behalf:

    Zsuzsa – When will you be picking up the kids from school?

    • Leto

      Hm, I work pretty much the same way like Zsuzsa in this regard.

    • , justasking

      @Olga,

      ‘When will you be picking up the kids from school?’

      Bo-yo had no school today, and I don’t have to pick up baby # 1, for another couple of hours.

      I appreciate your concern for them.

    • Aloof

      Suzie needs to get a grip. I’ve seen plenty of posts to know that she’s an excellent, loving and protective mother. I wasn’t “attacking” her kids at all and I’m not going to apologize like I did.

      She’s got some issues and denial and being overly sensitive are two I detect immediately.

      • justasking,

        @Aloof,

        If you want to go for another round…call me Suzie again.

        • Aloof

          What in the hell is your problem lady? Now you’re going to tell me what I’m allowed to call you after you’ve been calling me all kind of names for months? That’s funny.

  • Aloof

    justasking says: June 5, 2012 at 8:39 pm

    Hey screw you lady. I’ve tried being nice to you and you continue to act like just another Hungarian asshole. Who the f*ck are you? There are a lot of great folks in Hungary, damn good thing for Hungary you’re in Canada.

  • another Hungarian asshole aka JA

    @Aloser,

    ‘I’ve tried being nice to you …’

    Why don’t you go piss up a rope and suck the wet end eh?

      • justasking,

        @Aloof,

        ‘You’re on a roll darlin’!’

        I was on a roll, until you took the wind out of my sails, by saying… ‘she’s an excellent, loving and protective mother’…jerk :)

        Fluff!
