Well, blaming violence on Fascists in Venezuela is actually a lot more plausible than you would think. The coup was only in 2002, and many current opposition leaders were signatories to the coup declaration.
If you look at documentary evidence from the 2002 coup, it appears that the Venezuelan opposition leaders pre-positioned snipers to shoot and kill their own supporters so that they could justify a military coup. And what was the first thing they did after the coup? Well, for their part, the cops instantly sided with the coup leaders and are on video firing machine guns out of armored cars, and running around shooting shotguns at pro-Chavez protestors. As for the leaders, they formally abolished the constitution, the parliament, supreme court, human rights ombudsman's office and electoral commission, thus allowing the new "president" to rule as a dictator. This is not a conspiracy theory, they were quite open about it, they're on video cheering as they announce that the constitution and all checks and balances on the president were abolished.
So the Venezuelan Right back in 2002 had their own "burning the reichstag" moment, and straight out acted like Fascists from the 1930's in Italy or Spain.

It appears that the coup-leaders pre-recorded their TV statement condemning the sniper attacks, hours before the shootings actually occured, even naming the number of deaths and the method of shooting (snipers).
The rally was originally meant to be at one location, but they made a "spontaneous" decision to move the rally to confront a left-wing civilian rally at another location. It was only after they changed direction "spontaneously" that they came under fire (and somehow were able to produce a video about it before hand).
Now, the original rally just happened to be hosted in front of the headquarters of the national oil company, and the crowd there are on video being encouraged to give what look suspiciously like NAZI salutes, whislt they scream about "kill them all" and "death to Chavez" etc.
Meanwhile, the "evil" socialist rally they planned to attack with this enraged mob, had a stage with musicians, with families watching and people dancing etc.
Then there are media outlets, such as RCTV. After the coup failed, RCTV had a lot of problems with the Chavez government. But this was purely because they were directly involved in the planning and execution of the coup. RCTV promoted the rallies beforehand, and provided pro-coup censorship and media distortions during and after the coup. How do you think America would take to a news outlet that sided with a violent overthrow of the elected government, the imposition of a dictator in Washington? Under the Chavez government, nobody even went to jail for that. But, when their broadcast license expired, it went to another channel. They didn't get their broadcast license renewed. That was almost the entire extent of the payback. Chavez could have dragged them through the mud on treason charges, but he didn't.
