I don't care about Maduro, as far as I'm concerned, they can shoot him if they want. What matters to me is walking through the streets of my city and seeing the faces of fear on my neighbors. The military patrolling to prevent looting due to panic. It's a collective hangover, a horrible one.

It's 2016 all over again. It's seeing despair entering the circulatory system of all Venezuelans, only now it's more sudden, and we are painfully aware of it.

This is far from improving, and we know it.

The American people have unfortunately been stumped by the fact that using guns against the state has been made illegal and moreover is actually quite a dangerous and unpopular thing to do.

Somehow this little factoid didn't manage to pierce their unbelievably thick skulls when they were moaning about their "constitutional rights".
