I think people are starting to feel something is very wrong with the world.

Today, radio, TV, instant communications and the Internet give everyone a real-time look at worldwide problems. - tom

The protests and such are pretty close to blacked out in Venezuela

Is Obama’s silence also an implicit endorsement of Maduro’s brutal repression of those who oppose his illegitimate regimen?

You know that it is.

So sad. Such a brave, beautiful young lady. She died fighting for her country, though.

Around the world people are in the streets demanding freedom from oppressive gov’t, but here in the U.S., we whistle past the graveyard.

Millions were in the street ....and I think many more that 5 are in the ground.

We should BE there
but I guess The Muslim “brotherhood” has special needs.......cant go around helping EVERYBODY.

I think mr. penn....needs to visit ....walk the streets and really TALK to the people.Shake some hands....kiss some babies..shouldnt need security...everyone loves him there...He should grow a pair and get on down there.

oh well

Where have all the Flower Children gone?

By: Humberto Fontova

2/21/2014

http://www.humanevents.com/2014/02/21/where-have-all-the-flower-children-gone/

That silence you hear issues from the media/celebrity axis regarding the massive protests in Venezuela where hip college kids are being beaten, tear-gassed, and shot down in a manner to shame anything done by Mayor Daley’s police in 1968 or the Ohio National Guard in 1970. Six Venezuelan youths are confirmed dead and hundreds have been injured and/or arrested.

Forget looking in the mainstream media for the nitty-gritty of this communist repression. The Venezuelan regime —under the (literal!) and expert tutelage of their Cuban colonial overlords–is easily censoring the sheeplike mainstream media. The truth is getting out through social media.
Please don’t miss these dramatic videos.
