    There were no peaceful protest yesterday.....who saw that is lying !!! Some cars were burnt on the streets, some residential building assaulted by the protesters, 55 police afficers wounded as wel as 23 civilians, a lot of commerce shops robbed, people that can´t reached their homes or worksites, and so on....

    PACIFIC PROTEST ????? ........NO !!!! NO !!! NO !!!!!

    This is just a preconceived plan to make a caos and turn the Gvt. unable to deal with.....but people is changing their mind and getting tired with the situation asking the leaders of the movement to sit to dialogue with no more vandalism....
