Friday 25, around 11:00 pm I heard shotguns outside, I show up my window and theres the body of a young men, lying on the street, over his own blood, just below "the eyes of Chavez".
I quickly grab my cam and took this picture, from a 21th floor.
He was still trying to breathe, but he didnt move at all.
I broke down on tears when his mother showed up.
posting the pic on the comment, sorry if its too graphic.Insecurity. thats just 1 of the reasons people keep protesting.
That same day, the TSJ (Tribunal Supremo de Justicia) just declared that every form of protesting need a permission. Doesnt matter if your way of protest is non violent, silent, or just standing on the street with cartels, we need to ask for a permission to be able to protest.The next day around 20+ students got arrested by protesting on the street.

What's crazy is how many students have been shot in the HEAD. Not shot elsewhere on their body. Biker gangs drive up to you and boom- a bullet to the head.

Protests keep going on a daily basis, I'm reading 2 more people killed just today.
I think the death toll since the protests begin is now at around 25.

Just wanted to update some info on whats going on here in Venezuela.
The goverment declared holidays thursday 28th and friday 1st, wich adds to monday 3rd and thuesday 2nd that were holiday already. Its 5 consecutives days "off work" for everyone.
They want cold the street, things are starting to get out of hand for them. Too many people protesting, too many injured, too many dead.
Cuban forces arrived to Venezuela, they dont have nationals IDs so they cannot be tracked or get arrested, but of course they are armed and fighitng our people.Everyday lot of videos and pictures keep showing the brutal force of the national guards. They hurting people, humiliating, and killing. They get into
civilians properties and take people away, more are missing.National guards inside civials buildings shooting at people
National guards trowing a shit ton of tear gas at civilians

Colombian Ex president Alvaro Uribe regarding the lack of international support and absence of latin american countries condemning the gov't. The sad truth is Oil buys countrys' silence.

More people died, 2 more of my students got arrested, its 4 so far 1 still missing.
How do you tell their family thats fake?The fight its not only on the streets, theres also a media war, its true.
Everyday dozen of pictures and videos flood the social network.
Some of them are either fake or from past events.
I would like to remember everyone something bout Chavez, he knew very well how to influence media.
He was a propaganda monster, and did a very good job capitalizing most of the national media (newspapers and tv channels)
They took over twitter for years, every single political personality have a twitter acc, most of the armed collectives do too.
They managed to create bots that made trending topics w/e they want.
I been asked myself to fake images or documents, dates, stuff like that.
some of the fake images or date are made by them in order to generated false info. People here are not very techy, its hard for
some to realice if an image its really fresh or from past events / another country.
People see some crazy vids from Kiev and think thats happening here in another state.This past 2 weeks goberment blocked the twitter images server for a couple days.
Also some talkie walkie like apps been blocked.
They know the amount of visual evidence its huge. They cant take control over it.Last day Maduro went on national TV again, dancing, celebrating and doing stupid stuff while the people mourns the dead of relatives in the street.
Maybe some of you remember this picture I took myself
I live in a not so wealthy neiborhood, most people here know Im not pro-gov, some are ok with it some are a bit more sensitive.
I coulndt take the risk to go down the street with my camera for a closer look, things were really tense and I cant afford to lose my gear.
It will take me years of saving to get another camera.You guys may want to re-read this old QBN post when Chavez died:
Things went down hill here since that day.
Right now I cant assure there been 10 deads since it all started, there could be way more. Theres people with injures that may not make it.
Im staying home tonite, tomorrow we go out again.

Do you really the opposition needs to spread fake images when we already have 14 people dead this week just on protests? that isn't including common crime.

There are photos of one the deaths from today but I won't link to those they are VERY graphic, shot in the head by chavista thugs.
