Thugs.

Not thugs, communists.

Many Americans do not understand that the threat of communism is still us. We have people elected to office in Santa Cruz county CA who identify themselves as communists, yet free Americans unbelievably vote them into office.

The threat is at home as well as abroad, IMO.

..."it is a right, but nonabsolute, because the group, the necessity, the public thing, the collective interest, the agro-alimentary security must have parameters that that right justifies of which he is private".

So, in Marxist "newspeak" a "right" in not absolute, and given by God, but is only a genuine "right" if its parameters justify that which is private. Of course, in Venezuela the government defines what are "rights".

Apparently the Venezuelan Marxist government doesn't understand that "rights" are given by God but taken away by men. Those "rights" are "out there" just waiting for free people to take them back. Whether or not the Venezulean people are "man enough" to do that is unclear.

So, in Marxist "newspeak" a "right" in not absolute

Just curious but have you read the Earth Summit Agenda 21's policy on private property yet? You will see some very familiar language there. I wouldn't be surpised if Chavez's newspeak is directly derived from it.
