The Christiania Junk Blockade

”In Copenhagen, the police hunt down junkies and cannabis dealers. At the same time, heroin is being introduced at a large scale in Denmark. This is clearly felt in Christiania, where the cannabis trade is growing and the number of junkies is increasing. Christiania tries to cooperate with the police to clean up the hash market for junk, but [it fails]. The Free Town community is now taking matters into its own hands and initiating programs for overcoming addiction for junkies and actions against the junk pushers. It culminates in 1979/80, when a blockade is carried out against junk. The junkies at Christiania get the offer to step down or move. The pushers with hard drugs are thrown out corporally.” (https://www.christiania.org/info/christianias-historie/)(Own translation) "I København driver politiet klapjagt på junkier og hashhandlere. Samtidigt introduceres heroin for alvor i Danmark. Det mærkes tydeligt i Christiania, hvor hashhandlen vokser, og antallet af junkier stiger. Christiania forsøger at samarbejde med politiet om at rense hashmarkedet for junk, men røvrendes af politiledelsen, der i stedet iværksætter en storstilet razzia mod hashpusherne. Fristadens fællesskab tager nu sagen i egen hånd og iværksætter nedtrapning for junkier og aktioner mod junk-pusherne. Det kulminerer i 1979/80, hvor der gennemføres en blokade mod junken. Junkierne på Christiania får tilbuddet om at nedtrappe eller at flytte. Pusherne med hårde stoffer smides ud korporligt." (https://www.christiania.org/info/christianias-historie/)
