U.S. slaps visa restrictions on unnamed Venezuelan officials

WASHINGTON Mon Feb 2, 2015 2:28pm EST

(Reuters) - The United States said on Monday it has imposed visa restrictions on unnamed current and former Venezuelan officials involved in human rights abuses as well as unidentified people believed responsible for public corruption.

"These restrictions will also affect the immediate family members of a number of those individuals subject to visa restrictions for believed involvement in human rights abuses or for acts of public corruption," the U.S. State Department said in a brief statement. "We are sending a clear message that human rights abusers, those who profit from public corruption, and their families are not welcome in the United States."

1. Fuck the United States government.

What don't you deport all the rich Venezuelans living in Florida, sending money to the right wing in Venezuela, to over throw the government.

Oh, that's right, you want to over throw the Venezuelan government.

My government is evil beyond words.

Viva Venezuela.

Viva President Maduro.

Viva the Bolivarian Revolution.

What a cruel joke.

The United States of America knows all about human rights abuses.

They spread death, destruction, and poverty all over the globe.

I am ashamed of and embarrassed by my own government.

2. What IS corruption if it's not the wholesale purchase of our country's laws and lawmakers

by the greediest, most selfish people in the world?

What has happened here is so beyond ordinary corruption and criminality those words can't begin to cover it. They have won the war against humanity, for the time being.

They are not destined to prevail forever, as we all know. Justice will not allow it.

Your comments about human rights, the impact the US has had on the human race, SamKnause, are exactly right. They harm the helpless everywhere, while also posturing as righteous warriors against "oppression." Talk about in-your-face flat-out grinning, smirking, holier-than-thou liars.
