Manifestations in Brazil

Manifestations in Brazil

   Well, Brazil is passing trough a really difficult situation, the World Cup is coming and some political decisions are making all the population angry. Some of these attitudes are over budgeting some, if not all the stadiums for their own gain, they over budget it for getting some money for themselves during the construction time, until 2014.

    So, with all this situation, the Brazilian population got really mad, and, mostly by social networks, created some events against corruption and everything is happening in Brazil. People are going to the streets and manifesting, well, some of them are pacific, but some of them are not. Well, here is some pictures of manifestations in Sao Paulo and Rio de Janeiro.

      Those manifestations brought around a million people to the streets in the whole country, but some people turned to be really violent, robbing stores, confronting the police, depredating public places and stores, banks . And police had to control this situation with tear gas and some bombs, but they did not know who were depredating, because were too many people, so those who were just manifesting had to paid the price for those who were vandalizing the city. Here is some pictures of the confrontation with the police and a bank that was vandalized.

     Well, this kind of behavior makes the whole ideal of a peaceful and focused manifestations gets deturpated , and some people think that, with crimes and violence, they`ll get what they want, but, lots of the stores and public monuments that were vandalized, people had to pay for getting it fixed again. And the worst part is, that just some of those vandals got arrested, most are free and regardless. Those manifestations happened in June, but tend to persist until the government do something.
