Cuba is running out of toilet paper.

They're blaming it on the financial crisis... weird cause they blame everything on the embargo.

The U.S has extremists groups, like Christian Taliban, moral Taliban, Fox News, Jack Thompson... etc, but the Estate and the government doesn't ban anything, plus the U.S is not a dictatorship and tyranny like Venezuela.

Just like Vivanco said(from Human Righs Watch) "using the coup attempt to justify everything!", and you're doing the same thing. in the caribbean gulag, the warden does the same thing, labeling everything as a part of the 'empire' or the 'CIA' ... etc, just to justify its closure or incarceration.

I'm just gonna say this:

Every dictatorship in history has had its apologetics.

And it's awesome to support and defend a regime like the Cuban, North Korean, Belorussian, Burmese, Venezuelan... ones, when you live outside of them.

they're fighting narco-terrorists (FARC).----

Peru fought at their peak, two terrorists groups like MRTA and Sendero Luminoso(there's still some small remnants tho), Colombia is fighting the remnants of the AUC, ELN(which by the most part has fusioned with FARC), and FARC itself which remains the biggest threat.

People who defend these bullshit are like Oliver Stone or Noam Chomsky who was just vising Hugo Chavez this past week, apologizing his bullshit tyranny and dictatorship. every dictator in history has his apologetic. again... it's 'awesome' to defend a tyrannic regime when you live outside of it.

It's hypocrisy, it's a government that promotes violence, every speech of Hugo is a violent one against people who think different than him, they support terrorists groups like FARC, they have paramilitary squads to beat the opposition and independent media like Tupamaros and La Piedrita lead by Lina Ron which has labeled 'contra-revolutionaries' as a military target, a government that has 'Goebbels' like propaganda media like VTV, Vea, or Telesur... etc, and they're close to 'ban' Globovision which is one of the few independent TV stations in there... etc.

Venezuela's defense spending is just over $2B/year. Their oft-foe, Colombia---

Colombia has terrorists groups to combat, Venezuela doesn't... and the U.S doesn't ban videogames which is the main issue here... which you ignore.

And, FYI, your "peaceful marches" involved a freaking coup.---

You obviously have no idea what you're talking about, you either are living outside of Venezuela and think it's a peaceful country(nothing like supporting a dictatorship and

tyranny like the Cuban or Venezuelan one when you live outside of it) or you're just trolling.... I'm just gonna tell you this, Hugo Chavez said on TV that every march of the

opposition should be dissolved with 'gas del bueno', second of all you have no idea of the beatings that the opposition and independent journalists get when they encounter

these Cuban like gangs, or the paramilitary squads like 'Tupamaros' and 'La Piedrita'. you obviously ignore or have no idea of the 34 radio stations that were close because

they were of the opposition, and let's not forget about RCTV... etc. i suggest you investigate before commenting so you don't embarrass yourself like you're doing now by

pretending you know everything about the topic in hand.

Didn't bother to mention that New Orleans came in right after Caracas, with only one less murder per 100,000 people, did you? Or that Caracas's murder rate fell dramatically

since their last survey. Skew much?

New Orleans is not banning any violent videogames so there's no reason to mention any other city in the list, it's irrelevant, and the violence in Caracas has increased

dramatically in the last 10 years of government, that's a fact that you can't hide, one of the highest murder rates in the world when it doesn't even have wars, even Colombia

with terrorists groups has less murder rates, that sure tells you something....

If you wanna know about the daily situation in Venezuela i suggest you read something like noticias24.com they just copy&paste reports from reuters, AFP, AP and EFE which are

not 'terrorist media' like the government has labeled the independent media and they don't work for the CIA, Mossad or the "empire" like they always say.
