you're right, i think we're in agreement. the side with guns and tanks retaliated against the side with bricks and molotov cocktails by opening fire

No, I don't think we are. So tell me, how would the west react in a similar situation?

Not fifteen years before in the US the national guards shot at a group of 300 protestors who hadn't been occupying the place for months, didn't have Molotov cocktails, didn't take hostages, didn't immolate anyone. They killed four, and wounded nine.

What do you think the state should do when a group, funded with millions of foreign dollars, starts burning and kidnapping police/soldiers?

If this happened here y'all would be the first to enlist, I guarantee it.
