“This is war” Bogotazo!!!!!

Well, is me juanes now I’m alone because my grandparent has sleep but that last thing he said to me was about the Bogotazo. The only thing that I know from this is that it happened after Jorge Eliecer Gaitan was killed and most of all bogotans were mad about the kill and turned upside down the city causing suffering  but let’s check very carefully how this happened:

In April the 9^th of 1948 a presidential candidate was killed with three bullets one on his chest and two on his head (it was really different from John F. Kennedy). He was Jorge Eliecer Gaitan and you could see him in the 1000 pesos bill at the back of it. And if you keep watching really close at the same bill you may find a young man that now days is really know worldwide, well he is Fidel Castro. Wait why he was there???? Because he was going to talk to Jorge Eliecer Gaitan about a congress but instead of that he lived a catastrophe the Bogotazo. Jorge Eliecer Gaitan was killed but the murderer was captured, tortured and killed by an angry bogotans crowd, after that he was dragged by different streets in all Bogotá. After that there were many thieves and assault in Bogotá’s down town. Liberals and Conservators were in a war between them killing themselves with knives and “machetes”. In five words IT WAS A TOTAL ANARCHY.

After this revolt the government had no power to take the decisions because they were killing themselves, but by the time they started to get in some agreements and started to get the control of the politics in Colombia. If this wouldn´t had how would be our present in Bogota????’
