By the way, I heard some people died in some student protests over in Venezuela? I heard about some protests, but not about people dying (not that I paid much attention to the conversations though). But given what has been going on recently, it doesn't surprise me.

What I mean by that is that multiple, young, people have been found carrying weapons. And I do not mean handguns. Kids below 16 years old have been found in possession of rifles, and have even killed some people with them.

I also heard that the government was going to forcefully recruit them into the FANB if they found anyone under 18 past 6 or 7pm and/or showing "suspicious behavior". Not sure if they actually went through with it however, I don't go out late and I don't do such things.

So, given students can easily find guns, apparently, people dying during a student protest doesn't sound too strange. Some hormone-addled moron going crazy, or a bunch of hormone-addled morons thinking that they no one will do anything if they suddenly remove the PACIFIC part of "pacific protest", isn't hard to believe. The government allows protests, but not riots.
