Was "NO" the right option?

In my personal opinion I believe that the decision colombia made is the biggest error of our history.
What do you think?

I think there were a lot of problems in the voting process. People went to vote without reading the agreement, which is a huge mistake because they vote based on the bad information they were giving us. On the other hand, people vote because the are with santos or uribe not because of the peace. Voting YES was the best option because it assure us peace was going to be part of this country. Voting NO was voting for a"maybe we can do better agreements, maybe other politicians and points of view would be heard". Voting NO is the worst thing Colombians made because now is decision of FARC if the want to renegotiate or not, now we are pending on what they decide.

No was not the best option because for the country was better getting peace and no a conflict that would last other 50 years. Many of the people that voted didnt cared about the peace only cared about voting the proposal of Uribe and with that they private the country of the peace the wanted

Off course the main ideal all Colombians have is to get the longed peace, also to eradicate the violence conflict that have marked colombian history for more than 5 decades. But the people who voted No had really true facts and arguments which supported their decision, in the way that they didn't want to give the country to las FARC, pay this murderers higher than the police and the soldiers, putting aside all their crimes without making them pay jail, and more. Obviously Uribe had a very important role in the plebiscite, but he didn't say anything which was not true about that treatment, he just wanted to open our eyes and see what type of treat Colombians were voting for. The ideal of the ones of the No was to negotiate again in a honest, clearly and excellent manner the treatment, because we also wanted the peace, but not the impunity.
If this process is real, Santos and las FARC, will sit again and get to an agreement which is supported by all the Colombians, if not, it is clearly shown that what las FARC wanted was only in their own benefit and not looking for the wellness of the country.

It is,indeed,the worst mistake the colombian people have commited. The state of uncertainity from now on is very worrying. Almost nobody knew the treties,people only viewed what the government relented to FARC. It's very sad to notice that things like abstentionism are still a problem in Colombia. We,as youngsters,are really on the duty to flip the coin on this nation's paradigm.

Oscar,i strongly disagree with you. You see, people who where for the NO were responsable of a lot of desinformation towards the treaties. They told Colombian people guerrilleros would get a loan that was the triple of the real one(600.000 pesos to 1.800.000 pesos), they insisted that gender ideology was part of the tratie when it wasn't mentioned at all through out the 297 pages,they delcared that god wasn't the center of the negociation knowing that by consitution we are a secular state. Are those arguments? No Oscar,those are pieces of desinformation that corrupted many people's decision. Was the country given to M-19 when they left guns and started poitics? Was the country given to EPL when they also negotiated with the government? Almost 30 years from now that those treaties happened and we still live on the extreme right wing submerged country that those guerrillas fought for.
