It seems like people are really angry with him right now.
Turkish government banned news agencies from reporting on these incidents.

Wasn't there a Turkish riot a while back to get rid of the government but never got off the ground?

Maybe the Turks can give it another go because when a Government says "Accidents happy" to something where there is 350+ casualties then you know they're fucking stupid

Yup, there was riots by people who was afraid of how government "become more Islamic day-by-day" and wanted Erdogan to resign, but other half of population(Gulenists) at the time supported Erdogan regime and fought the protesters back.

After the leak of Erdogan phone conversation with his son, Erdogans regime became enemies with Gulenists, which was its main supporter. Now all of the population wants him gone, but he has the power of government and military(after imprisonment of high-ranking generals by the accusation of Ergenekon coup).

No matter how bad is the Erdogan doctrine, you don't want Turkey to go into collapse right now...
Btw why did people vote edogan at the last election a few months ago?

Pretty sure it wasn't. Turkey is a NATO member, looking forward to EU accession I'd dare say it's even a regional power. It's not a country ruled by warlords.
