They have already been disarmed
The currency is almost worthless
And the Government has closed the border to Columbia
where citizens used to go to provide essential services and goods.
If you visit , bring your own toilet paper, or use the local currency

It’s like buying a BB gun. Someone’s losing an eye. It’s just not worth it. The don’t have the American spirit.

Maybe we could send the Bundy family down there. :-)

Because very few people besides the government goons have weapons.

Latin/Spanish culture is quite accepting of the caudillo "strong man" culture. Top-down, forced collectivism is quite ingrained in their culture.

BECAUSE THEY DO NOT HAVE ANY GUNS! ONLY THE GOVERNMENT HAS GUN! THUS A PERFECT SCENARIO FOR SOCIALIST.

You can’t continue to force this kind of sh*t on people unless you have a lot of guns and the people do not have any. They still overthrew the USSR but it was very difficult and took a lot of courage.
