30 SEPT 2010🪖#Ecuador (From 15 years ago) #ParoNacional2010 The #Quito Coup attempt on President Correa, a 1 week long nationwide protests and riots that culminated in a 45 minute automatic weapons shootout firefight between the National Police and the Ecu Military in North Quito at the National Police Hospital on Av Marian de Jesus y Av America just next door up hill from Hospital Metropolitano. ⛑
At the time i was living 4 blocks North of the shootout Av Moñasca & Av America. The Shootout rescue began about sundown,🌇Bullets were ricocheting around the neighborhood! The CS Riot Gas is very super strong and effective!! (makes me gag:( during this week of Paro / Strikes My Best Friend from GA. USA 'Bud' was visiting me for some good ole economical Ecuadorian Dental Work🦷
Bud has traveled way more and way longer than myself, when he finally made it back to my Casa from his dental appointment, he looked very pale and surprised, and Bud don't rattle too easily🤠

The vast and stunning landscapes, rich history, and immersive cultural experiences make horseback riding in Ecuador an absolute must.
If you are eager to try something new, riding through these breathtaking highlands offers a deep and personal connection to the land...."- 🌋(in Quito take the teleferico cable car ride up to 14k ft elv, and use a horsey to go on up to see the Volcano Pichincha rim)⛰
28SEP25 "It's getting intense. Noboa is very authoritarian and dictatorial. There certainly are human rights abuses by his government, the Army and National Police. He doesn't understand that the more repressive he is, the more people rebel against his stupidity.
"In an interview yesterday he said that Pentagon military bases will be in Ecuador next year. How many bases, where, how many troops, what sort of weapons and mission ??? Many questions.
Noboa also said that Europol would have bases in Ecuador. Europol is a European police agency. What will they be doing, and where?? Why are Pentagon troops and the Europol police coming to Ecuador??
It looks like Ecuador is being made into a Pentagon and European Union colony."

#ParoNacional2025 "Several human rights organizations, such as the Regional Foundation for Human Rights Advisory Services (INREDH), have reported that protesters claim that abuses and harassment have been committed by the security forces.
These allegations were echoed by the Waorani Nationality of Ecuador (NAWE), which represents an Indigenous Amazonian population: “[We were] repressed by the public forces.”
This seems to be the tone of the protests across the country. The National Police and the Army have not hesitated to use force to clear the roads and disperse the protesters." -
