Anyone who has been following Venezuela closely knows the country is on the brink of collapse, there's barely any food, medical services or public services, the government has degenerated into almost full blown communism, taking control of nearly every aspect of the country and it's production of...well everything.

Today a "stolen" police helicopter opened fire on the supreme court building, for those of you who don't know the supreme court of Venezuela recently gave themselves the power to rule by decree, making it a dictatorship and effectively silencing the general public.

The trigger man for the attack is Oscar Perez a former pilot in the Venezuelan special response team, he made a public statement that he and his fellow patriots would not stop fighting until the "Criminal government" was deposed and power restored to the people.

This is just the first shot in what is gearing up to be a full blown civil war, with daily riots and insurgency on the rise Venezuela is poised to become a hot spot for a military incursion by it's own people, daily now we see mass damage to government buildings and full scale violent riots in the streets with police quickly becoming overwhelmed.

If someone is to give in Venezuela, it has to give soon before more people support military action against the government and turn a national incident, into a full fledged civil war.

Thanks for reading.
