For the past two months, indigenous Peruvians have been protesting the government sanctioned takeover of their lands by foreign oil companies. After months of protesting the Peruvian government turned violent, dispatching snipers & helicopters and murdering peaceful protesters. On June 8, citizens gathered in DC (and all over the world) to protest the systematic genocide of indigenous Peruvians.

"peaceful protesters" ? indians killed 6 police members, and so far peruvian justice didnt find any culprit .... it is quite simple to be watching news from outside of peru then give a comment. What press doesnt broadcast is that majority of indians want progress for its community, but there are some radicals within that dont.
