"We didn't lose because Brazilians like guns. We lost because people don't have confidence in the government or the police,"

This is a very powerful statement... When the meyhem and civil disobidence happen because of some large disaster in this country, you will want a gun for self defense. New Orleans is a great example.

Someday when (not if) we are hit by 'the religion of peace' fanatics, you will want a gun.
