Things have got a lot worse for reasons I do not understand, the government over-reacted in my opinion and made this thing sound bigger than it is, which made the protest a much more serious thing than it was . If you follow the situation you will see that things started very simply and then it grew very huge and media is not really helping.
I can tell you this...
According to my opinion and the government's actions, this whole issue will either end by tomorrow and things will calm down , or things are going to blow up like never before. So tomorrow is a really important day.

not many dead , just 6 which deserved it(attacked police)
I believe in the USA, you would be shot at if you attack a cop right?
Yeah, I'm sure they viciously attacked those cops boots with their head.
Instigating violence is a common tactic police use to turn popular opinion against protesters. Even in the supposed "free world"
agent provocateurs have instigated violence at the WTO in Seattle, and the G8 in Toronto, etc. Never trust the cops, they always fight dirty.
And
here they are today, fighting dirty, and massacring peaceful protesters:
"Everybody was on the ground. They were shooting at the heads and chest," said a shaken Mohamed Nabi, 27, sitting with two friends in the besieged emergency room while awaiting care for one man's wounded leg. "We were chanting, 'peaceful, peaceful,' but the government was willing to have a massacre. We weren't afraid. We were willing to die in this way."
These people are liars. Trust me the media is all wrong, and even when they are right they twist things so much.
here are some points.
For example, you all heard that Bahrain is upset and going into a fight and how much the government is abusing the people and killing them.
What you didn't hear is just last Sunday and before everything even start by couple of days the King gave an amount of $2,650 to each married couple(family) in our country as a gift for a 10 year celebration of the parliament!
As far as I know that includes widows and divorced women with children. Did you see that in the LA times?
One of the protests supporters here stupidly reports stuff against the government and calling against the current regime, and then retweets that he just applied for the $2,650 gift online processes and he is happy with the easy process, what kind of hypocrisy is this?
Another guy goes on tv (BBC I think) to say that protesters on the Pearl roundabout , which you might have seen in the news, reached an absurd 100,000 protesters!
Did I tell you that our whole nation is only 600,000 or so?
I can confirm 100% to you that the roundabout reached a maximum of 10-15 thousand. I might be exaggerating when I say 15, I don't think that place can carry more than 10 thousand humans.
I got an inside source that told me that the protesters have stolen blood from a blood bank from a local hospital and spread it on them and on the streets to make things look more violent on tv.
One of the protests leaders said "If Saudia Arabia interferes in this, Iran will interfere in our support". Does this guy sound a patriotic guy to you?
I bet you didn't hear that in the media , did you?
Did you know one of the protesters ran with his car into 15 of the police men? Did you hear that?
One New York Times reporter , under the name of Nick Kristof , is reporting such false information, like the government is having a helicopter shooting at him, what kind of joke is this? Does the government have nothing better to do than follow a reporter with a helicopter to shoot him?
Local jokes are starting to arise like "Kristof knows what Victoria Secret is", "Kristof knows how I met your mother"
http://twitter.com/NickKristofThe stories you hear are on sided and anti government to create chaos.
What you don't know in past events is those group of protesters having been creating chaos all the time. Last year or the year before it, two guys in a car, one got injured I believe and the other guy is dead. You know why?
They were carrying a bomb to a local mall, where one of them tinkered with the bomb in the wrong way and it blew IN the car as they were heading to the mall to set it up.
Here is a video from my local TV, you can see cops actually hurt in the hospital
and after clearing the area of the "peaceful" protest, look what kind of weapons were found left from the "peaceful" protest.
I just want to be clear , in my country its absolutely illegal to own any kind of weapons , even something like a combat knife. You might face trouble with a huge kitchen knife in the airport. so how did these weapons got through? Was it all planned?

I would like to hear everyone's opinion on the video.
