Protesters in Cuba set fire to Communist Party building; one person shot

 

A week after uninterrupted nightly blackouts, Cubans in Moron, a city in central Cuba, took to the streets banging pots and pans Friday night chanting “Down with communism” as some of the protesters broke into the local Communist Party building and tried to set it on fire.

At least one person was shot, apparently by Cuban police, videos posted on social media

Like the opening scene from Scarface.

Just highlights how little a “deal” will do to immediately improve anyone’s life there. If anything, a promise to allow dissent will be like opening a bottle of Coke that’s been shaken up for years.
