Again?!!

By Kerwin De Matas

As Baden Powell once said, " Be Prepared "!! Here we go again, the students along with their teachers are at it once more, they are going to strike again in downtown, Santiago, Chile. The warnings are visible at our office, to be careful when transiting to and from the job. What the heck, I am a professional now at dodging these protests, just have to know that you should never linger so that the tail of the protesters reaches you, because if that happens, as they say in Trinbago, " Crappo smoke yuh pipe! "

Carabineros With A Protester

It is disturbing though, that the teachers and students have not learned already, that with these protests, the hooligans are always waiting at the back to have their fun, I mean, whose supposed to be the smart ones here.... Can you believe that on the last protest, someone threw a Molotov cocktail in the window of the La Moneda, the Presidential Palace!!

La Moneda On Fire 11Th Sep 1973

Those damn kids/hooligans or whatever, want some good licks in dey ass!! How the hell can things be so out of control, that these fearless actions, can just go on with out anyone having respect for the law... It's incredible that the government would not step in to put some people in their places, just because of what went on in Chile's history in the 70's, the politicians are just too SCARED!!

Under Age Students Are Also In The Confusion

They are thinking of presenting a new security system for the protest programmed for the 26Th of September, it is supposed to eliminate the high percentage of destruction that usually follows these demonstrations, and guess what, I am really curious to see what it is. Personally I believe the politicians have waited too long to put law in order, because if they are thinking of putting out tough love at this point, this country would just go in turmoil, and you better believe that!! Now of course negativity won't help a situation, but after waiting years, only now they would present this new security measure?...

Being Led Away

I just hope no one is kidding no one here now, just hope so. As I have said on numerous occasions, I have grown really fond of this country, and to see that these things are happening here, is really sending a very negative message to the nation's youth as well as to the international press. Students, be a good example, there is a huge possibility that your protests can be organized so much better, than they are right now, come on, SHOW SOME GOOD VIBES TO GET YUH MESSAGE THROUGH!!
