Maduro pidió concentrar toda la fuerza en “sacar de raíz los valores malditos del capitalismo que han generado el crimen, la droga y la destrucción” de la juventud venezolana, en un país de 30 millones de habitantes y unas tasas de homicidios oficialmente situadas en 50 por cada 100.000 habitantes.

Maduro asked that all the force "to remove the roots of wicked values of capitalism that have generated crime, drugs, and destruction o the Venezuelan youth....

“Podemos decir que la mente y el alma de miles de nuestros compatriotas han sido envenenadas por la cultura capitalista del consumismo, de la droga, de la criminalidad, de la muerte”, dijo secundando lo que otras veces ha señalado el propio presidente, Hugo Chávez, convaleciente en Cuba desde el pasado 11 de diciembre.

"We can say the mind and soul of thousands of our compatriots have been poisoned by the capitalist culture of consumption, of drugs, of criminality, of death" ....

Maduro dijo que al pueblo venezolano “se le impuso” desde los 60 una cultura que comenzó con “una andanada de películas televisivas del cine estadounidense” en el que se combinaba drogas, criminalidad y violencia.

Maduro said that the venezuelan community has been imposed upon since the 60s by a culture that began "burst of movies in US" that combined drugs, criminality, and violence.

“¿Quiénes pasan las películas que envenenan el cerebro de varias generaciones desde hace varias décadas?”, dijo en alusión a los canales privados.

Later Maduro criticized the opposition and media for accusing Chavez of not doing anything material regarding security. "Who makes the movies that poison the brain of various generation since various decades?"

1. Lol.

So, just one more way the Chavistas are like the right wingers here.

You'd think if Hollywood was to blame that violence would be higher here.

Anyway, lets give them a chance, it's not like they have been in power for 12+years during which time it's gotten much worse...

/oh wait

5. Most violent countries in the hemisphere

and a different context, making it hard to draw conclusions about the crime rate in VE

6. Ok yes

But I'm pretty confident that it is not Hollywood as Hollywood is consumed around the globe

3. Aside from the mind numbing stupidty of his comments, the position on drugs seems pretty clear

not to mention the same reasoning for violence that the NRA always claims.

8. Right... It has nothing to do with the government's gesture after 14+ years

Maduro is sounding more and more like Hugo every day. Maybe they're training Nicolas to replace their comma-induced ruler?
