If you haven’t seen this angle, these are the gates leading to the interior compound of the U.S. Consulate in Karachi. If they get past that point they’ll scatter, and it’ll be overrun.

If you’re trying to break into the consulate, that isn’t a “protest”, it’s an attack - so yeah, the marines fired on them to stop it. https://t.co/6sYbUOszWN

The people shot were attempting to storm the consulate. The Marines’ job is to defend it. It sounds like they did their job correctly. https://t.co/EX6AbxPo6V
