If you’re wondering what’s happening on in Venezuela and why people are protesting here is a video that will fill you in on the country’s current political situation.
To sum it up, there are student demonstration groups protesting against record shortages and the world’s fastest inflation. In response the government has issued the military to intervene, taking away civilian rights, including the right to peaceful protest, shutting down television and radio networks and apparently even social media such as twitter. The situation is dire and there are innocent people being killed from the military using lethal force against civilians.
