University students last July 22 demonstrated in four major malls in Caracas, namely Sambil, El Recreo, Galerías Ávila and Metrocenter, to advocate respect for the right to life.

While not many, the demonstrators called the attention of the people in malls shopping, eating, going to the movies, or simply taking a walk.

They shouted "students for life," wore white clothes and stamped a number on their foreheads. In this way, they rejected personal insecurity plaguing Venezuela.

"We should not get used to see 40 people killed on a weekly basis. We have stamped a number on our foreheads to detach from the coldness of numbers and make people see that every number represents a dead body. Most victims, unfortunately, are young people," said Freddy Guevara, leader of the Andrés Bello Catholic University student council.
