    So sad for Venezuela. It's unlikely they voted to keep Maduro in given the state of the economy. Causing millions leaving to escape it and unable to vote to change it. With their oil reserves, why are they not experiencing economic growth?

    Not "police motorcycles" Those are armed thugs, (one drives, the other has the weapon). They are the urban arm of the regime. Some say they have been trained by Cubans sent from Communist regime.
