Will Time magazine put this photo of a starving Venezuelan on its cover, too?

I have no doubt that this is possible in Venezuela right now.

However, it is also possible that this is someone with anorexia or bulimia or an addiction or some medical condition, and the purpose in posting it was to later reveal the truth and discredit those who fell for the hoax.

Who.
Where.
When.
What.

I want confirmation as to who this is.

I pray that fat boy Maduro meets a bad end very soon, and that sanity is restored to Venezuela. In Jesus's name. Amen.

As Christians, a better prayer would be that Maduro see the error of his ways, repent the harm he has caused, ask forgiveness and set about correcting it.

Just as an aside, MLB has many millionaire players from Venezuela and neighboring countries. I’m wondering why they are not organizing some sort of relief effort for their countrymen. I know many of them were cozying up to the dictator in the off-season some years ago.

Still, you get my point.

Don’t go there and just despair — DO GOOD.

Write a check, unload trucks, work in a food kitchen.

Give the child YOUR shirt.

Simply snapping a photo is insufficient.

“I pray that fat boy Maduro meets a bad end very soon, and that sanity is restored to Venezuela.”

You hit the nail on the head with your sanity remark. Maduro was elected. The people got what they wanted. As with obama, he got a second term. This insanity is leading the citizens of Venezuela to their own suicide.

Fortunately for us, we now have Trump, or we’d be in a similar position with Hitlery.

Maybe she sold them for food.

Or they were stolen by another desperate person.

The first people to suffer when socialism sinks a country are the mentally ill and the handicapped whose caretakers abandon their posts in order to focus on their own survival.

Surely that Fat Assed Michael Moore can ship some food to his socialist pals. Cripes, this is truly horrible!

If food or other help were able to get through the corrupt government directly to the people who need it, I don’t think they would care who it came from.

Venezuela proves socialism is heaven.

Their money’s no good.
They’re expected to praise the administration perpetually.
It leads to nothing better.

This photo will do more good than volunteering to enable socialism.
