When a country gets that bad that people take to the streets, the Govt has got to go.

@ATTACK1942 What won't the people learn? That they have no right to over throw a corrupt government? That they simply simply except and live in fear and tyranny?

Also, how much more aggressive can the police get? Possibly they start using real bullets? You are an authoritarian and I would be happy to overthrow the world of your kind.
