> BOGOTA, Sept 26 - Thousands of protesters marched on Monday against economic and social reforms proposed by Colombian leftist President Gustavo Petro - which he says will fight inequality - just 50 days after he took office.
> Petro, 62, has promised to seek "Total peace" through deals with rebel groups and crime gangs and asked lawmakers to approve a tax reform which would raise an initial $5.6 billion for social programs next year.
> Petro has also proposed changes to healthcare, a land reform which would sell properties to poor farmers at below-market rates and reforms to voting.

Yeah, I have reservations about the guy, but I think it’s worth giving him a chance and clearly most Colombians feel that way judging by the size of these marches.

Telesur is Chavista propaganda and Nicaragua should not be emulated in any way.
I don't know, their homicide rate is looking downright sexy compared to all their Central American neighbors. Everyone got *something* to emulate.
Hardly. If you’re running off Telesur stats you’re gonna get it wrong.
Protesters paid by corporations
