Of course the media is having fits. Ask yourself this: Which is better 100 members of the criminal element dying or 1,000 people killed over things as simple as a cell phone by the criminal element? This will strengthen The Legend with his political base. A police force with nerves of steel is needed to defeat a criminal element with nerves of steel.

For those who read the whole story, remember this: When the statistics are not on your side, use anecdotes.

Special Report: A surge in killings by police roils Bolsonaro's Brazil - Reuters


His death, in a state where killings by police have climbed by 16% this year, according to government figures, is being investigated by Rio prosecutors.

The raid is one of many lethal operations that human rights activists, some Rio residents and opposition lawmakers see as part of a bloody and illegal campaign to clean up historically violent neighborhoods across Latin America’s biggest country.

Emboldened by victories last year of far-right politicians with aggressive law-and-order agendas, Brazil’s police forces are surpassing their own longstanding reputations for being among the most violent in the world.
 
In any country where you give police Carte Blanche to kill, bad things will happen.

In a country like Brazil, where many elements of the police are highly corrupt and in many cases active participants in crime, this will be used for police to kill opponents of their criminal clients, at the behest of dirty politicians and those who perhaps have information about police wrongdoing or those who bring complaints.

You call a cold blooded dictator a hero in your avatar, you love authoritarian, corrupt regimes that kill their opponents, so yes, it’s hardly surprising that you love this stuff.
 
Bolsonaro: “the Junta didnt kill enough”

See to people like Bolsonaro, national order is the only thing that matters. In such a society justice becomes unobtainable.

I wouldn't want to live in a place like that, but it's pretty clear that such policies are the only hope third world countries like Brazil have of suppressing their criminal element.

This is, of course, what we have to look forward to, given our immigration policies.
 
1. This is a hot potato.

2. Let's just say that Brazil is a very "unique" country.

3. We have enough problems of our own without sticking our nose in the affairs of the Brazilians.

4. The whole world is an absolute mess, not just Brazil.

a. The chief reason is too many darn human beings on this planet.
 
If you learn a different set of rules, it's not that bad. Thinking ahead and being prepared for what could go wrong before it happens makes all the difference. One detail that even many Brazilians forget to do is install a METAL lock-from-the-inside bedroom door. Home invasions are a fact of life. When they get a few items to sell for drugs, they will leave. As far as the police go, if you don't look and act like a "marginal", you won't be treated like one.

Think of it this way: A false rape allegation will inflict more damage on your life than a home invasion.
