Professional protesters in keffiyehs Sunday squared off against rejoicing Venezuelans who said the pro-Nicolas Maduro “fools” have no idea what they’re talking about while outside Brooklyn’s federal lock-up. Several natives of the beleaguered South American nation told The Post they showed up at the Metropolitan Detention Center to take photos and shoot videos for relatives back home — to provide proof that the brutal dictator who terrorized their country for so long is finally behind bars. “We just wanted to see where he is, if he was locked up,” said Karla Garzon, a 36-year-old tourism worker in Venezuela who spoke over the phone as her city-based friend Melissa showed her and two pals the outside of the ultra-high-security jail.
