Venezuelas "colectivos"... modern day brownshirts for Chavismo (video)

"Encapuchados armados roban en la Clínica Acosta Ortíz" (Hooded, armed men rob the Clinic Acosta Ortíz)

Armed thugs, riding motorcycles and loyal only to Chavismo, they do the bidding of their masters at Miraflores Palace.

Yet Maduro blames these antics on "the middle class", "businessmen" and "American financed fascists" trying to give Chavismo a bad name.

... yet curiously, pro-government yobs (colectivos) seem to not only be armed, but always seem to act with impunity.

The PNB and the GNB are all over the place when two or more non-violent protesters gather together to demand democracy. Yet packs of motorcycle riding thugs descend upon whole neighborhoods... and not a single LE officer to be found anywhere?

But fear not! Maduro says he will "personally" see to it that these people are brought to justice. {{{rolleyes}}}
