SANTIAGO (Reuters) - Chilean protesters marched against immigration and crime in the Andean country's far north on Sunday, with some violent factions destroying belongings from migrant camps in the streets amid growing tension in the region over border controls.
Despite pandemic restrictions in recent years, many migrants from Venezuela and elsewhere have kept trying to reach Chile, one of the wealthiest countries in the region, which has been rocked in recent years by protests over entrenched inequality.
"This can't go on," read one protest banner from Sunday's march in the coastal city by several thousand people, who were complaining about what they called a spike in illegal immigration and an increase in crime.
The call to protest came after a group of Venezuelan migrants recently attacked police officers at a checkpoint, for which they were detained. Protesters on social media also called for strike action in the city over the situation.

Just do what Augusto would do.
Augusto was a freaking hero. In a single generation, he transformed Chile from a third world to a first world country. He showed how social security could be transformed from a Ponzi scheme to an economic growth engine to actually provide a secure retirement. And he did it at a cost of making few than 1800 leftist pricks disappear.

LOL! Love it!
Kill a Commie for mommy!
So...the protesters are racists too?
White privilege just oozes all over, doesn’t it?
‘’Good bye Mommy I’m off to kill a Commie....’’’
LOL

“Despite pandemic restrictions in recent years, many migrants from Venezuela and elsewhere have kept trying to reach Chile”
LOL! As if the third world migrants give a rip about Covid! Yet, the media portrays it as just another hardship the poor little illegal immigrant angels have to suffer while they invade and steal other nations.

Aw, your Mom saved your homework. How cute.π€
Years ago, AARP magazine had an article on how Social Security works. They said all Ponzi schemes collapse and because SS had not collapsed it was not a Ponzi scheme.
A few pages more there was an article by Jane Bryant Quinn on SS. she told how it was set up, and with out saying it, it was just like a Ponzi scheme.
