Italian Mafia Protest

In Naples, Italy there were 100,000 people marching in the largest anti-mafia protest held in years. People carried flowers and marched while names of loved ones were being read who have been killed by the mafia. Antonio Bassolino, president of the Campania region, spoke to the crowd and declared the mafia to be not eternal. He claimed that they can be beaten but they need to fight "365 days a year". Many people attending the protest remained pessimistic about the situation and angry as ever.
