The guns were seized from prisoners, & people arrested for violent crimes. In polls, Venezuelans say crime/insecurity is the most serious issue affecting Venezuela. Govt stats show that homicides rose from 1999-2007, but with new reforms, are now dropping

Some people imagine that "Venezuela is a dictatorship that people are fleeing". The reality is very different: a democracy, where the people have elected socialist governments in recent years, ensuring less poverty, more human rights, & more people coming

The right-wing opposition has once again erred, confident in the idea that the world crisis & the fall in oil prices would finally bled dry the revolution. But the govt has simply reduced concessions to corporations, thus reducing the topposition's power.
