Venezuelans now regret allowing a gun ban

Venezuelans regret gun ban, 'a declaration of war against an unarmed population'


CUCUTA, Venezuela/Colombia border – As Venezuela continues to crumble under the socialist dictatorship of President Nicolas Maduro, some are expressing words of warning – and resentment – against a six-year-old gun control bill that stripped citizens of their weapons.

Right buddy. A Fox News opinion piece. That's definitely going to be written from a neutral perspective, isn't it?

Of course, Fox News tends to brush over any facts inconvenient to its "guns are good" narrative. For example:-

The country is still awash in weaponry

Or

Gangs often get weapons from the police, either by stealing them or buying them from corrupt officers, experts say.

Since this is under “World” instead of “Opinion”, and since the author does not give her opinion, but rather gives opinions of some Venezuelans alongside data, I never would have known this was an opinion piece without your honest interpretation. Thank you for pointing that out.

I also appreciate you pointing out Fox isn'texactly honest about Venezuelans who lament the gun ban since gun bans don’t work. It’s good to have some truth tellers like you around here.

Where is the armed American revolution dedicated to the removal of the corrupt, fascist Trump Administration?

Where were the American fascists with their guns when they threatened to overturn the liberal "Obama regime"?

Yeah, that's what I thought. Over the past ten years every American -- fascist, Conservative, socialist or liberal -- has either claimed they want an armed revolution or threatened one.

Yet nobody has done a goddamned thing.

Very good point! I didn’t know that every American had threatened or claimed to want an armed revolution. I guess there are some social movements that literally no one at all covers.

Great question, by the way, about why we don’t throw out our Presidents by force. I bet people just forget to start violent revolutions because of elections. That is weird though.

Senator Charles Schumer (D-NY) lost his “assault weapons” jobs. Remington Outdoor Company (ROC) announced it’s moving its Bushmaster rifle and Remington Model 1911 pistol production lines from its nearly 200-year-old plant in Ilion, New York, to its new facility in much more gun-rights-friendly Huntsville, Alabama.

Are you Leftist about killing jobs and income for the people of New York ??????

1997, but citizens are still able to own and shoot some shotguns and rifles with a license.

Shotguns and rifles may be licensed by applying for a certificate through the local police force, according to the government's guide on gun-licensing law.

How is you are an Anti Gun Nut ??????????????

A closer look at recent statistics shows that more than half the 7,866 offences involved unidentified, unknown, imitation, reactivated or other sorts of firearms. These type of weapons are often referred to as “junk guns” due to them being unreliable, underpowered, less robust, fairly inaccurate and likely to misfire. But this suggests that although the availability of high-quality firearms may have fallen, the demand for weapons remains.

You regularly demonise PEACEFUL PROTESTS if they are liberal, anti-capitalist, anti-Christian or anti-fascist, so it takes a particularly special kind of hypocrite to then argue he needs a gun so he can violently protest stuff he doesn't agree with.

In March of 2011 Senator Schumer put a press release on his website boasting: “Today, U.S. Senator Charles E. Schumer joined Remington officials and plant employees to announce that Bushmaster Firearms is relocating a manufacturing facility from Windham, Maine to Ilion, NY, bringing over forty new jobs to Central New York in the process. Schumer has been a long-time supporter of manufacturing at the Remington plant, urging top Army officials to open up competition for the Army’s small arms contracts to other U.S. manufacturers and domestic producers across the country like the Ilion, New York-based Remington. Today, Schumer applauded Remington’s decision to add new jobs to the productive and capable work force already making the factory an economic powerhouse in the Mohawk Valley.”

Bushmaster makes AR-15s. These are the same semiautomatic rifles Schumer calls “assault weapons” and wants to ban nationally. On CBS’ show “Face the Nation” on December 16, 2012, Schumer said we need to “reinstate the assault-weapons ban.” He said this knowing he’d never be challenged for hypocrisy by Bob Schieffer or any other mainstream news journalist. He knows such journalists mostly support him, but he also knows they don’t have a clue about this issue.
