Here I have some more material, from many sources in social media. Facebook, Instagram and Youtube are usually erasing or covering content with the “+18″ layer, I will try to do my best to show the actual situation in Chile, the country where I live. The military forces are shooting people for protesting in a pacific way, and even if you’re just walking on the street. The first photo says: “That’s how the fucking cops left my dad in front of his house”

“When you read too little, you shoot a lot” [fragments of ammo and toxic gas launched at the protesters in Chile] Source: unknown

One of the most popular programs in Chile, “31 Minutos”, now presents their logo with no eyes because of the (new) blind people that has been hurt by the cops in my country.

In this video, military forces were stablishing a peace pact with the protesters. Then, the fire started again from somewhere. [The girl says: “We were in peace with the "milicos” (military forces) and they just shot”] Source

197 Protesters in Chile had been shot in one (for once, both) eye(s) by police pellet guns.

*Zorrillo: colloquial name for that vehicle used to spread tear gas.
