oliver stone doesn't agree with the protesters.....

When the moderator opened the panel to questions, Luis Barrueto, a 23-year-old Guatemalan student, asked Stone how he could reconcile being so critical of government overreach in his home country, yet so passionately in support of leaders on his continent who were arguably much worse.

While Barrueto spoke, Antonella Marty, a student from Argentina, approached Stone from stage right and handed him a letter she co-wrote with fellow South American students Humberto Rotondo from Peru and Gabriel Salas from Venezuela that asked him the same question and accused him of making “propaganda” for Chavez.

Stone slipped on a pair of reading glasses, glanced at the letter and listened to the rest of Barrueto’s question.

“We would like to publicly convey our utter disagreement with your support towards governments that restrict liberties in our side of the continent,” the letter read. “Fortunately, and paradoxically, you will be able to express your opinions freely, even as you support governments that silence everyone who thinks differently.”

“Obviously I don’t agree with you,” Stone said. “I am fine with all of the political opposition to Chavez, so long as it’s done legally. There is a method by which you can protest. But now, the opposition is increasingly behaving like the Republican Party in the United States, where it is trying to block, criticize, destroy, any attempt at negotiation.”

He added later: “Venezuela is a democratically elected government, and these people who keep protesting are sore losers.”
