"Venezuelans demanding presidents recall take to the streets in massive Caracas rally"
Angry citizens of Venezuela clashes with police for the third time in a week to try and recall president Nicolas Maduro. One citizen says that the government will have to send out planes and guns if they want these rallies to stop because they will only be stopped by force.

These Venezulelans can be compared to so many protesters in American history. They are most similar to the protesters in Shay's rebellion and the whiskey rebellion. They each wanted something to change and marched on the president. It makes you wonder if they would get more of an effect if they did non-violent protests like sit-ins that were led by the freedom riders and Martin Luther King Jr.
