I spend last night in someone´s house. I couldnt make my way home because most streets are blocked and they decided to close the sub early.
Tryed to take a cab but the guy declined, it was too late and he didnt want to take risks driving to my zone.
Today we woke up early, made some food and went out the street again.
Theres a lot of people, so many that Francisco Miranda Av. got filled both ways. Everything went in calm so far.People keep claiming for a change.
Nobody trust the police or the national guards. They hurting, torturing and killing people. Shotting to buildings, it goes like that every night.
When the president goes on tv people go out their windows and start shouting and protesting, then armed groups start firing at them.More people died.
On this street, the people who live here decided to put a metal cord across the way in an attemp to stop the "tupamaros" to raid the place again, (like that the past 3 nights)
but sadly 1 guy was driving his motorcicle and got killed by it. People tryed to warm him but he didnt stop. (nobody will stop at night when people start shouting at you)
This is caos.Thanks to ernexbcn for posting those vids man. All those are real and thats the situation here.
We are not secure anywhere, if you are a protester and you expose yourself they could get to your house and take you.
The amount of missing people grows everyday. 1 guy was found with a bullet on his head in a hospital, died 2 days after.I have friends that are "pro-gob" or "chavistas". For them none of this is happening, they believe that the police are just doing their job, and the national guards
are here to defend the nation agains the CIA or w/e USA ghost they think going to invade us pretty soon.But every day more and more go out, street is the only way most people say.
With all this going I havnt had the chance to go and buy groceries, my fridge its almost empty, I need to go get me food and be ready "if something happens".
I didnt realice how important is energy and rest time if you are out in the street the past 2 week.
I will get some stuff and come back to sleep, Im tired, maybe later we decide to go out again.
Hope this day ends calm.thanks again for posting the pics and videos. I will try to find some livestreams links to post later.
ah btw the Zello app got blocked in Venezuela. It was a very usefull tool to keep everyone in the resistence organiced, lots of students were using it to comunicate
with other states. They posted on twitter: @Zello Frank Bajak @fbajak CEO: #Venezuela blocks @Zello walkie-talkie app, a popular tool for protest organizers in Vzla and #Ukraine http://strib.mn/1jiM3Gx
