		Italy’s "Pitchfork Protests" Spread to Rome; Interior Minister Warns of "Drift Into Rebellion"
By News DeskReuters reports Italy’s ‘pitchfork protests,’ in fourth day, spread to Rome . Italy’s "pitchfork" protests spread to Rome on Thursday when hundreds of students clashed with police and threw firecrackers outside a university where government ministers were attending a conference. Truckers, small businessmen, the unemployed, students and low-paid workers have staged four days of rallies in cities from Turin in the north to Sicily in the south in the name of the "pitchfork" movement, originally a loosely organized group of farmers from Sicily.
