Traditional battle in a Moldavia locality

In Moldavia different traditions in which the people wear masks have been preserved. This one, from Ruginoasa (Iasi county), involve the battle between two rival groups. The battle is partialy serious partialy simulated, the winner group having some privileges in the year which start.

Unfortunately, the police was alerted and tried to put stop to the event, which seems to be too violent for the UE norms.

But tradition it remains. you cannot burry a 900 YO tradition because it does not seem civil. Is boxing civil? Bull fighting in Spain? Miss contests? Who sets the norms to what is appropriate and what is not. Our country and no others, we are what our forefathers made us and nobody else.
