Mortar Attack on Columbian Police Station

Assailants in pickup trucks fired homemade mortars at a Colombian police station on Thursday, killing at least six people and wounding more than 20.

The dead in Thursday's attack included the Villa Rica police post's commander and five civilians. Also killed dead were 3-year-old girl and a 19-year-old woman.
The part that really struck me was this comment from the unnamed "reporter":
The peasant-based FARC, which has been fighting a succession of governments since 1964 demanding a more equitable distribution of wealth, is seeking to open a peace dialogue with the government.
What an idiot. FARC is no more a "peasant-based" movement "demanding a more equitable distribution of wealth" than Wall Street is a small group of colonial merchants trading stock under a tree. Maybe once, in the beginning, but not for a long time. Here's a hint for the brain-dead, PC zombie that wrote the story--FARC is a group of murderers.
