Venezuela bans private gun ownership
Shake that ass

(BBC) Venezuela has brought a new gun law into effect which bans the commercial sale of firearms and ammunition.





'Must do more'


While voters don't seem to hold Mr Chavez responsible for the insecurity, the situation has worsened throughout his 13 years in office.

The government's most recent statistics put the murder rate at around 48 per 100,000, although some non-governmental organisations estimate it's much higher - 60 per 100,000 in 2011, one of the highest rates in the world.

Critics say the new gun laws and other recently announced measures, like a victim's compensation fund, are just the latest in a long line of failed attempts to bolster security.

Well, I'm sure the Venezuelan criminals will obey the law and turn in their guns then. And of course the noble Hugo Chavez would never be using this law as a way to avoid dangerous popular unrest by honest Venezuelans when he nakedly steals the 2012 elections, right?

The last masterbatory comment does not say what is used in all of the murders in each area and what percentage of the population is murdered not to mention breaking down murders by type, economic status etc.

Interesting, I'm actually a bit surprised that it works!
