In order to protest, people in Argentina banged pots and pans to get their governments attention. All of the protests have been a part of "cacerolazos". They wanted to draw attention to major problems in South America such as crime rate and political corruption. "The people got tired, they really got tired of the government's lies," was one of the things a protester said. Personally I love the protest, im glad they didnt act violently.

That's a much better way to protest while still getting the government's attention. I also agree with the protestors that something should be done about the crime rate and political corruption.
