Protesters have burned down the front doors of Mexico City’s national palace as a part of angry demonstrations against Mexico’s corruption and drug violence.

The protests follow a comment by Mexico’s attorney general on Friday, who cut off a news conference about the students’ apparent murders by saying “enough, I’m tired.”

The phrase has quickly become a hash tag on social networks and has appeared in graffiti, political cartoons, and YouTube videos.
