Must be nice of being on the other side when protesters are on the receiving end, huh?



Here are some pictures of a couple of students who died at the hands of these delinquents

So Maduro says protests require a permit, but then Chávez once said there should not be such a thing to freely protest on the streets, citing as the constitution as the only requirement needed. Interesting...

I'm sure the chavistas are rubbing their grubby little fingers at the prospect of death for anyone who dares oppose the corrupt government.

..., even calling out the atrocities carried out against the protestors. But then, when the atrocities are being committed by a supposed leftist government, they sure don't seem to have a problem that the protestors are being fired upon with live ammo, even when the worst that protestors are doing is throw rocks at them. Seems a tad harsh to respond to rock throwing with live ammo, doesn't it?
