« Les violences policières sont toujours connectées à la violence des foules. En revanche, les décès occasionnés par les forces de l’ordre sont toujours déconnectées de l’intervention des forces de l’ordre. Le problème, c’est la violence des foules. »

« La violenza poliziesca è sempre connessa alla violenza delle folle. Ma i decessi causati dalle forze dell’ordine sono sempre disconnessi dal loro intervento. Come se il problema risiedesse solo nella violenza delle folle ».
