About 64 percent rejected banning arms sales in the nationwide referendum

Yup, no bias here.

Sixty four percent of the people rejected the ban, but Reuters could only find those supporting the ban to interview and quote in their article.

Not quite:

In Jardim Panorama, a rough Sao Paulo shantytown, lots of people voted "no." If gun sales were banned, low-paid police might dabble in arms trafficking, said Joao Rodrigues Magalhaes, a 40-year-old machine operator.

That's NO, in fact I wonder how you say HELL NO, in Portuguese? Ah here it is:

No. Do Inferno.

And all 26 states along with the federal district (equivalent to DC), voted:

No. Del Infierno.
