Great photos as well; really gives the less familiar reader a good idea of what's involved.

I edited the article to reflect recent corrections in the Argentine press as to the identity of the victim, as well as to add a photo.

This tragedy, like Maldonado's, was bound to happen the minute Security Minister Patricia Bullrich reversed Kirchner-era rules that banned the use of live ammunition by Gendarmerie officers on protesters. She (and Macri) are responsible, and what's worse: this won't be last such incident.

Security Minister Patricia Bullrich and Gendarmerie troops: shoot first; ask no questions later.
