so you think killing more people who have done crimes helps? some of those people could be innocent, you don't even know. gangs don't always attack gangs.
If you lived in Brazil you would have a different reaction, we are tired of being afraid and being in the hands of the criminals once they show up, they can do whatever they want to us and we can't do anything, the police is inefficient, the government is absolutely corrupt, the education doesn't work, health care is broken and it kills more than it saves, and the criminals are just growing, Brazil is the opposite country, it doesn't do good for their citiziens who obeys the laws, they just throw more taxes, inefficient public services and crime at you.
You can say whatever you want about, let's say the american police force for example, if they save lives from an actual dangerous criminal but the only way they can do it is by taking down the target, they're heroes, but in Brazil, if a police officer must kill a criminal to save innocent lives, he goes to prison as well, that's how bullstuff the system here is, it's a system that benefits the crime, not the citiziens.
Also, I'm not celebrating this massacre, I'm fairly aware that there are people in the middle who did not commited heavy crimes, my first post there was what I heard from most people when I talked about it, but when you're living in a country like this, reducing the criminal population is something the majority of the population wants, even if it means taking drastic measures.
