"We are going to bring disarmament and peace," Reverol told reporters, while police officers drilled and sawed at rusty shotguns, home made pistols and some newer weapons.
While the Venezuelan government and liberal western media will frame this move as an effort to reduce crime, it's about keeping the citizenry defenseless against the government in a time of complete societal breakdown.

You’d think they were afraid of a revolt against their tyranny or something.
And this is why Socialists need to be shot BEFORE they get into power.
I’m done commenting on why this is smart or dumb. Thing is, it is happening, like a massive tsunami. All you can do is predict the results as it starts,and continues, its path of destruction.
My gawd this is going to get ugly before it’s over.

Coming to a neighborhood near you...
Molon labe! I’m sure there are places in the country where the “officials” won’t attempt anything like this. The feds would have to try it.
I’ve always thought the CIA should have shot Chavez as soon as he was elected.
Andrew Wilkow is talking about this now.
