Entrepreneurial Turks Profit From Protesters
Tear gas, water cannons and massive crowds around Taksim Square mean big business to some entrepreneurial Turks. While some hawk juicy watermelon or spicy kofta, surgical masks, goggles and "V for Vendetta" masks seem to be the most popular goods. One demonstrator can be seen spray painting "Erdogan resign" on a wall while wearing a "V for Vendetta" mask. He says it is important to hide his identity. (Produced by RFE/RL's Glenn Kates)
