Another coup in the making!

So, if as the coca chewer-in-chief reckons the rioters have stolen weapons, why the use of Molotov Coctails?

No doubt Morales will enlist the heroes of Mercosur to come to his aid before he is chucked out of office by his own people.

At last it seems the people rather than the nutbar leftist autocrats are taking the power, now maybe they can have some actual democracy rather than this joke of an autocracy they've collectively become.

This “police revolt” seems uncannily similar to the one Correa survived; I predict Morales will survive too, because the people, contrary to #1&2, don't want to go back to the bad old days
