SAN CRISTOBAL, Venezuela – Venezuelan soldiers opened fire on a group of civilians attempting to keep open a segment of the southern border with Brazil for deliveries of humanitarian aid, leading to multiple injuries and the first fatality of a massive opposition operation meant to deliver international relief into this devastated South American country, according to an eye-witnesses and community leaders.

The dictator kills people trying to get food into to the country for those who are starving because of the dictator’s policies. A perfect example of socialism at work.

I could excuse our law enforcement people for standing down the street nonchalantly because they were ordered to “just keep the two groups apart at first if possible” and so on. Thus they were just following orders. I was angry they let conservatives get beaten several times.

What happened to me: I used to watch TV. Once before he had his own show Tucker Carlson and a guy on a panel said to each other: Some police vote Democrat in their local areas. Reply: That’s done really less and less now, don’t you agree? More see that Democrats side with BLM and other war on cops types.

Since then I am suspicious and cynical and wary of ALL law enforcement in case they are kissups to the evil Dems.

For cops to give up pensions and family benefits and job prospects by disobeying orders and rushing in to save a conservative from being beaten and gassed, would take a lot of sacrifice.

However, where is our protection from Antifa thugs and other Democrats? We have to forfeit protection if we like Trump?

To the law enforcement people: the wise question asked often by the New Left in the 1960s: Whose side are you on?

...and so it begins.

It began twenty years ago. That was when they started shooting people who did not agree with the government.

But the worshipers of the holy election thought that people should just "wait" and "vote them out" while ignoring the fact that the communists had re-written the rules so they would never be voted out.
