A group of heavily-armed men — riding on a motorcycle and in three cars — went on a shooting rampage at a bar in Brazil, killing at least 11 people on Sunday, according to officials.

Seven men were said to have carried out the 4 p.m. attack, according to Brazilian news outlet G1, which cited Pará officials. Six women and five men were killed. Officials said almost all of them were shot in the head.

... The bar that they targeted is in a high crime area, which had to get police reinforcements earlier this year, according to G1.

What all of Latin America needs is the return of the death penalty.

That title should give the gun grabbers some ammo.

Here come the stories, in the American media, about every shooting in Brazil since they loosened restrictions on firearms ownership.

Or rather “Second Amendment at fault for mass shooting in Brazil.” Yes, I know the Second Amendment does not apply to Brazil, but the left wing press knows a lot of Americans (esp. Democrat voters) are ignorant of that fact.

This is not a tragedy. It is a disgusting act of vicious violence.

At least they got one of the perps - wounded but not dead. BrazilIan police don’t screw around. This will get ugly for the perp they got and then the other bad guys.

Prayers for the victims and their families.

“Police managed to wound one of the alleged gunmen and took him into custody...” A state hit team or off duty narco agents were the first thing I thought of when I read the description. But I guess not, also you would think the cops wouldn’t off girlfriends, if they were girlfriends. I guess they might in Brazil.

‘Mass shooting at Brazilian bar leaves 11 people dead’

Now that the Brazil has a Trump conservative, that Hair guy, they’ll start reporting on crime there. In this case, it wasn’t a ‘mass shooting’ in today’s context, since the act wasn’t done by a white, adolescent, kid from an upper middle class family. It was a professional TERRORIST attack.

In Brazil government forces are coming to high crime areas with armor and air support. And they are losing men, armor and aircraft in process.
11 people gunned down are non-news there.
Better off people are living in gated suburban communities and they are coming to work to the rooftops of their office buildings by air.
Some don’t go to the city streets for months.
With all that crime Mexico is a sort of Disneyland comparing to Brazil.

And now we’ll have another call for stricter gun control measures to protect us from shootings that didn’t even happen in our own country.

Nothing new to Brazil. You’re only hearing these stories now because the prez opened up gun freedoms.
