Paredón (Spanish)
-thick wall
-standing wall
-rock face
-execution wall (place where people are executed by firing squad)
This is a video (in Spanish, sorry) is from the Venezuelan National Assembly yesterday. The lady is talking about Temp Prez Guaido’s immunity from prosecution being removed and her complain was it was not enough. Then she asks the question: “How do we deal with traitors to the country?” and some in the crowd start chanting “Paredon!” you can hear it clearly.
I racked my brain trying to remember when was the last time anybody was legally executed in Venezuela. According to Wikipedia, the country eliminated capital punishment for all crimes back in 1863 and it was the first country in the world to do so.
This is important because Venezuela was to be under the thumb of several dictators till 1958, including Right Wing military ones who had torture chambers and concentration camps, and yet not a single one of those assholes even tried to bring up capital punishment. Nobody even dared mention, it was something you simply didn’t try to bring to congress to have it legalized.
Now the Socialists Assemblymen and women are chanting for firing squads.
And now you can appreciate even more the fact we have a Second Amendment.
Thank You Venezuela!
A whole new spin on “Build the wall.”
Whose back is up against the wall? Because I totally support shooting the socialists that destroyed Venezuela.
