Brazil murders maintain downward path in first three months under Bolsonaro - data

“It’s just the culture of MACHO.”
That is what Democrats said fifty years ago when it was pointed out that more Mexicans were being murdered with knives than with guns, outpacing the US murder rate of gun deaths back then.
How can that be? Firearms are illegal in Mexico!
It’s a good start.
Hmmm, doesn’t Mexico have fairly strict gun control?
Mexico has one gun store. That’s it. One
That’s like Chinese data, lies and more lies...Likely 2x or 3x
This is awesome! The overwhelming number of immigrants legal or otherwise in the last 30+ years are from Mexico.
So bring more of those gang banging, drug-toting murderers here!!!
Tijuana is the murder capital of the world. TJ is worse than Juarez now.

I once read a book by Octavio Paz, a Mexican writer, on the Mexican mind. He stated that the Mexican culture was so violent, that when people found out that a person had died, the automatic question was, “How was he killed?”
Over 17,000 MURDERS in Mexico in just 6 MONTHS? Hey, I’ve got an idea.. HOW ABOUT WE IMPORT SOME OF THESE KILLERS ILLEGALLY THROUGH OUR BORDER?!!!!
One third the population of the US and a similar homicide rate. I want the libtards to once again tell me why we need more gun control, because firearms are pretty much banned in Mexico.
