I know it is a npr newslink, but the violence is bad enough in Brazil that a push for better self defense and firearm laws has been going on for a few years.

Spend some time in Sao Paulo and you will understand. No middle class, just wealth (starting at US uppermiddle class) and total poverty with associated crime.

LOLz, like Brazilian police aren't dirty and doing some cleaning of their competition.

Brazil is a huge problem of corruption and oligarchy. But at least we know their arms industry runs efficiently. CBC makes a crap ton of ammo.

I picked up on Central and South American .gov being totally corrupt by the time I was about 12 so the lone exception of police being involved in a shooting that I found amusing was a Cooper's Commentary from the 90's about several Mexican cops robbing motorists at gun point till they unknowingly tried it with a Mexican army vehicle.

Erring on the side of caution, it isn't much different than cheering on gestapo, kgb, stasis, etal forces.

Must be shooting the right-pigmented people, or the Reverhunds Jackson & Sharpton (or their non-union equivalents down there) would be leading the protests.
