Walter Kraft wrote that before 1989, some people, in protest against the 17th congress of the Communist Party of Czechoslovakia, tore out the 17th page from their identity cards, and according to him, the Public Security usually imposed a fine on the spot for the damaged document. He compared the current practice to arresting people for the letter "Z" on a t-shirt and ironically stated that the situation has improved. #historie #protest #svoboda (translated)
