    Except, you can’t mad at a government when half the country didn’t care enough to vote.

    You get what you vote for.

      Yes, you can. The government is supposed to act in your interest, whether you voted for it or not.

      You seem to be exercising a very concerted, propagandistic attempt at blaming protestors for being angry at their grievances not being addressed, and not a single word of criticism at the government facing the inevitable consequences of its lack of desire to answer to their citizenry, forcing citizenry into escalation.
