Mexico anti-corruption protest descends into chaos as thousands of 'Gen Z' demonstrators storm National Palace

Mobs of frustrated, mostly Gen Z Mexican protestors advanced on the National Palace in Mexico City on Saturday, trading blows with cops and screaming slogans about how corruption and cartel crime have spiraled out of control in their country.

Thousands of people filled the streets of the nation's capital to march to the palace, which is the official residence of President Claudia Sheinbaum, the progressive politician who took office last October.

The demonstration, largely organized by young activists and supported by older supporters of opposition movements, was the culmination of citizens' frustration with the government's inability to stop violence and provide economic opportunity.

Protestors, many of whom were calling for Sheinbaum's resignation, were seen trying to breach police barricades around the palace.

Authorities responded by shooting tear gas out into the crowd, causing people to run in all different directions.

Clashes between citizens and police lasted for hours, but eventually order was returned to the area around the palace.

Pablo Vazquez, Mexico City's chief of police, said 20 people were arrested and are set to be charged with battery, assault and robbery, Bloomberg reported.

Vazquez added that 60 of his officers were injured, 40 of whom had to be sent to the hospital for treatment.

Can you blame them? Mexico is a true cesspool. The place is a narco state.
