Haiti Manifestation VIOLENCE Photos - Don't believe everything you see on Facebook!

Take a look at this photo... It is a photo of, supposedly, Haitian civilian gunmen shooting in the streets, supposedly, during the 18 Nov 2013 manifestation in Haiti... It is spreading on Facebook like wildfire... AND... Propagandists from both sides are claiming it as foul play from the other side while others on Facebook are saying "I've seen this picture before!" Have you???

Have you seen this picture before?

WHEN?

Before or AFTER 18 Nov 2013?

First time I saw it, it had the following caption:

"Haiti Photo de Civils armés du MOPOD / Lavalas, tirant sur des maisons à PetionVille."

Then... later on the same day, I saw the same photo with this caption:

"Photos : Des Criminels brassards roses armés par Martelly en attaque contre les membres de l'opposition Des esclaves domestiques à la solde des petits fils de Pétion, de Martelly et de Laurent"

Then, to my surprise... Someone post the following comment below one of them...

"Kiyes nan nou ki pa konn ti imaj sa fre-m?
Li la depi avan 2004."

Interesting... Don't you think?

This is the negative side of Social Media... Anyone can make you believe anything they want...

QUESTION: Have you seen this picture before?

What do you think about this

1) Bible la di tout moun ki pa aveck Bondyé nan ciel la contre li et tout moun ki contre li doué dérasinen, (Matthieu 12:30) ; en principe sa ta suppozé apliké pou tout moun, sa Sénatè volè sa yo ap fè nan mitan Prézidan Martelly ak Lamorthe toujou?

koman fè Prézidan Martelly ak Lamorthe pa détruis mango pouri sa yo nan palais a?

nou supozé wè sé par ce que Prézidan Martelly ak Lamorthe ap travail nan pays d'Haïti, puis que ti coco-rate sénatè ak Prezidan coco-rate sa yo pat jan-m remet an-yin yo wonte, si kounyé a yap pran wonté servi colè, sé pa nou ki té mangé pois a nou paka caca pois a.
