Leaked phone calls: Capriles just wanted to make a scandal

60. That is incorrect.

The violence is highly overstated because there are elements that want to cause it. I have posted videos and images of the protests. They have been 99% peaceful. A lot of the deaths appear completely random and some of them appear to be everyday murders (crime in Venezuela is out of this world). Indeed, when crackdowns were threatened the opposition called off their peaceful protests.

Below are my documentations of the "rioting" in Venezuela:

You are looking at news and data that is simply not reflective of the peaceful nature of the election fraud allegations. Your arguments are akin to the arguments used against OWS or the Wisconsin protesters (and the many protesters during 2011 over the public employee protests).

The clinic fires were a lie. And Obama did have campaign offices attacked. In the event of the campaign offices in Venezuela both sides did it to one another, mainly idiot hooligans, and neither side encouraged it, though Maduro called for "radicalization" and a lot of people here cheer the armed chavista groups.

Kind of tired of this meme that 49% of Venezuelans are violent thugs wanting to impose fascism.
