I know the (probably correct) instinct is to side with Chavez, but I don't know the details of this event and ideally wanted opinions from comrades who pay closer attention to South American/Spanish politics.
Do you think Chavez had it coming? Or was he justified in his actions?
Well, that's what a lot people thought and probably still think. At least now it's less than before.
And some of the ones who didn't think that, thought he gave us democracy during 23-F.
