London 03.07.05 | From my own experience I can tell that it is very hard indeed to come to terms with the death of loved ones. Even when such tragedies are caused by natural causes. Just to begin to explain the pain that one goes through when an accident robs one of a person held dear is an almost impossible task; language is of no help in such instances. Thus I can only express my sincerest condolences to the families of Leonardo González Lárez, Edgar Quintero Torrealba and Erick Miguel Montenegro Sánchez, the three students slaughtered for no reason by Hugo Chavez's repressive military apparatus. The reaction from the students in Caracas was swift; yesterday they marched to the office of Venezuela's Attorney General to demand his resignation.

This Chavez is nothing more than a big Bully and a Castro wannabe.

Chavez has to go.

He may be butt kissing buddies with that old nut Jimmy Carter but something needs to be done quickly.

Say a shot in the dark would be nice.

Demand the Attorney General's resignation? They apparently have no clue who to blame for this.

The story is that the students were stopped at an impromptu police checkpoint, and decided to run for it thinking it was a robbery.

The cops opened fire.

In Venezuela this is standard procedure if you run through a checkpoint, they will open fire.

This is just the beginning for Venezuela. If they want a glimpse of their future I suggest they start studying on Zimbabwe.

Agreed..

Even if you have to "go through" Jimmuh to shoot Chavez - I can accept that...

Semper Fi

The cops who set up the flying checkpoint were military intelligence and the equivalent of the FBI, which means very likely they were in plain-clothes, which would explain why the kids thought it was a robbery, and ran.

You can bet that someone is investigating the possibility of a shot!

Maybe Jimmuh would like to be a human shield for Hugo?

Well at the Old Goobers age hopefully we want have to wait much longer for him to clear out of this earthly paradise.
