Maduro plans to arm 400,000 supporters amid protests and unrest
The socialist leader of Venezuela announced in a speech to regime loyalists his plan to arm hundreds of thousands of supporters after a years-long campaign to confiscate civilian-owned guns.
“A gun for every militiaman!” Venezuelan president Nicolas Maduro said to uniformed militia members outside the presidential palace, Fox News reported on Tuesday. The Bolivarian militias, created by Maduro’s predecessor Hugo Chavez, already number in the hundreds of thousands and are being used to supplement the regime’s armed forces. Maduro is boosting the number of armed supporters in hopes of keeping control over the country from what he labels “imperialist aggression.”
The arming of Maduro’s supporters comes five years after Venezuela’s socialist regime outlawed the commercial sale and civilian ownership of firearms. Only the military, police, and groups like security companies can buy guns and only directly from one state-run arms company under the law passed in 2012, according to the BBC. The country recently doubled down on its gun ban through a combination of gun buybacks and confiscations in the summer of 2016.
The difference between Venezuala and America is America is so rich that moving elsewhere is a step down, and moving to America is always a step up. So our r-strategists can import an r-strategist army of willing migrants eager to move here.
Venezuela, especially in a collapse, is not a target destination for r-strategists looking for a land of free resources. So the rabbits in Venezuela have to make due with what they have, which is a mixture of desperate rabbits, bribable psychopaths, and people eager to do anything to provision their families.
The problem is, a full socialist collapse will always create a situation where too many people are starving. By its nature, he cannot keep enough people comfortable enough to maintain control, unless everyone is disarmed and only his supporters have access to the best weaponry.
If I were President, I would flood any nation like this with airdrops of loaded AK-47s during a massive march against the government, and let the people sort things out.
Spread r/K Theory, because we need to keep our guns for when the socialist revolution begins
