edit: LETS GO COLOMBIAn people*!!
Disgusting that the police fight the people like that period.
I could imagine a gang of Trump supporters pulling something like this.
More protest coming. Gonna be a hot summer soon.
Oil companies are like that everywhere… they eat your land and resources like cancer leaving you with extinction capabilities.
Stealing Colombian oil
Farmers getting some straightening
That’s so funny wow!
We have to do this when these land pirates act out of constitutional fold
What happened to the Columbians that killed the Haitian President?🕴️🗣️
violence only breeds violence, yes….BUT, greed breeds violence too (Corporate Greed. Amen)
They failed to mention the officer,and the people were reffered to as PEASANTS! "They" The Peasants wants to destroy our government the "President" said defending the oil company whos destroying their farlands and lining his pockets….. The GOP would be proud
😂😂😂
Strange story to you cause we’re in Disneyland (America) yet Americans don’t understand how sweet we have it.
I think we just found a better way
LoL, go Columbia. Now those are citizens that understand people power. They took the cops hostage. Makes perfect sense they are the enforcers. Without them the elites got nothing.
Good idea, Farmers stop feeding the woke…
Holding pigs hostage……..hhmmmm
Dam
they bend the truth to fit their narrative. they don't give 2 f*cks about the officer or the farm worker.
The point is, they will not pay out anything and the elected officials will protect their interest ironically with funding from the people..
Will face the full force of the military…the last statement on the report ..lol..
You weirdos in the comments saying this should happen in the US are completely delusional and really need to snap to reality.
Sounds like Haiti, get your oil out or fix our town you destroyed.
People are standing up.
Unionize the masses! Comrades!
Good Job to the protestors… shouldn't have let the cops go tho… #js… should have stripped them of their clothes and gear…
good to see, standing up for whats right
It's sad that they have to fight for simple things like that… More power to the people
Rise against the big oil corporates!
😆 🤣 😂 😹
This is going to happen in the us soon
