1971 Dutch Farmers' Revolt
The 1971 Dutch farmers' revolt ( nl, Boerenopstand van 1971) took place on 21 December 1971 in the municipality of Tubbergen in Overijssel, the Netherlands. The rebellion was set off by an intended land consolidation of, in particular, agricultural land. Voting In the stakeholder vote on the land consolidation plan there were 2,938 eligible voters, about 1,200 of whom were farmers. Only 27 votes were cast, 15 in favor and 12 against the proposal. Despite the low turnout, the plan was approved, because the votes that were not cast were considered to be in favor. This was seen as unfair by many residents of the municipality. Riots Riots erupted in the villages of Tubbergen and Geesteren. The windows of the town hall were smashed and the residence of mayor was set on fire. Riot police was deployed and several people were injured, one police officer was even stabbed in the back. In 1972, a report on the events was discussed in the House of Representatives.

Stemming Over Ruilverkaveling In Tubbergen (Twente) Boer Demonstreren Tegen Ste, Bestanddeelnr 925-2514
In linguistic morphology and information retrieval, stemming is the process of reducing inflected (or sometimes derived) words to their word stem, base or root form—generally a written word form. The stem need not be identical to the morphological root of the word; it is usually sufficient that related words map to the same stem, even if this stem is not in itself a valid root. Algorithms for stemming have been studied in computer science since the 1960s. Many search engines treat words with the same stem as synonyms as a kind of query expansion, a process called conflation. A computer program or subroutine that stems word may be called a ''stemming program'', ''stemming algorithm'', or ''stemmer''. Examples A stemmer for English operating on the stem ''cat'' should identify such strings as ''cats'', ''catlike'', and ''catty''. A stemming algorithm might also reduce the words ''fishing'', ''fished'', and ''fisher'' to the stem ''fish''. The stem need not be a word, for exampl ...

Dutch Farmers' Protests
The Dutch farmers' protests ( nl, boerenprotesten) are a series of demonstrations by Dutch livestock farmers, characterised by the use of tractors to block roads, and occupy public spaces. The protests were initially triggered in October 2019 by a government proposal to halve the country's livestock in an attempt to limit agricultural pollution in the Netherlands, but protesting farmers have frequently told media that they are motivated by a perceived lack of respect for their profession by the Dutch populace, media and politicians. The protests combined several action groups and an amalgamation of larger goals, which included less government regulation for farmers, more air time for pro-farmer sentiments, and more policy to punish Shell and Tata Steel for their part in the emission crisis. Public understanding for the farmers has remained high for the duration of the conflict, but actual support began wavering in December 2019 over a series of "radical" actions and statements m ...

1989–1990 Dutch Farmers' Protests
The 1989–1990 Dutch farmers' protests ( nl, Akkerbouwersprotest), for want of an unambiguous official name also referred to as the Farmers' Revolt ( nl, Boerenopstand), was a series of protests by Dutch farmers of arable land. Starting locally in February–March 1989 and culminating in nationwide demonstrations in February–March 1990, the protests were a response to changes in government agricultural policy beginning in the mid-1980s. Background Under the agriculture ministership of Sicco Mansholt, the price that arable farmers in the Netherlands received for cereal grain (in particular wheat) was kept artificially high. Under Gerrit Braks, who preferred to invest in pig farming, this standard was abandoned. Partly due to the import of cheap grain from abroad, the high grain price became unsustainable. In addition, the European Union had to raise billions annually to buy up surpluses. To be able to compete on the world market and maintain a position of competitiveness, west ...

1963 Dutch Farmers' Revolt
The 1963 Dutch farmers' revolt ( nl, Boerenopstand van 1963) in Hollandscheveld, the Netherlands, was a rebellion led by Dutch farmer and politician Hendrik Koekoek against the Landbouwschap over the eviction of three farmer families. The rebellion was also referred to as the Revolt of the Braves ( nl, Opstand der Braven). In March 1963, three farmer families were evicted from their farms by order of the Landbouwschap because they had refused on principle to pay agricultural levies and because they lived on the farms illegally, as these were owned by the Landbouwschap. Thousands of so-called "Free Farmers" ( nl, Vrije Boeren) from all over the Netherlands—followers of Koekoek—went to Hollandscheveld to try to prevent the eviction. The government set up a ''force majeure'' of more than 200 helmeted and armed police officers to keep the demonstrating farmers away from the places where the debt collector did his work. Riots ensued. The police drove the people away from the fa ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Non-military Armored Vehicle
Non-military armoured vehicles (paramilitary armoured vehicle in some cases) are armoured vehicles used outside professional armed forces. While primarily invented and used for defense/internal conflicts from an equally well armed organized force, armour technology has found a number of other uses outside of this military context. Internal security forces Several sovereign states employ a standing internal security force, akin to a military force, but separate from the official army. As such, these official forces are often equipped with the same armored cars, although often fitted with less lethal armaments, such as water cannon. In countries that employ a territorial reserve force, only mobilized in times of war for civil defense, these forces may also be equipped with armoured cars. As the main heavy armaments may be out of the country or with the main army, the civil defense force may only have these military specification armored cars as their best defense. In France th ...
