We were warned a long time ago that evil prevails when good men do nothing. Are there no good men left down there?

Brazilian men need to grow some cajones (is that the right word?) and stop this.

They must be planning a brutal dictatorship soon.

Always, the dictatorships are preceded by universal gun bans.

A government that doesn't trust it's citizens, is a government that can't be trusted.

Probably not planning a brutal dictatorship. Likely they just have in mind a 'benevolent' dictatorship. One that needs complete control of people for their own good.

The problem comes when a benevolent dictatorship fails to work, so it must turn brutal in its ultimate effort to protect the people from themselves. It's all for the common man, doncha know.

My thoughts exactly.


NEVER trust government.

LOL! indeed. Since when have I cared whether I am 'cool' or not. Sheesh! That level of manipulation went out the door in junior high.
