#5  In the video, notice the left leg sticking straight out and the criminal's inability to move it? One of the shots got the lower spine for sure on its way through. Completely blew out that major nerve nexus there. With that kind of damage, no surprise the criminal died.

I counted at least 3 shots, apparently all center mass but on the lower body. Adrenaline will make you overtighten the grip and make you shoot low (and left).

Good shoot by that cop.

#4  Lastly, Americano hostages are worth a lot of money to gangs in Brazilian favelas.

#3  Warning also. Street thugs usually work in pairs with one doing the bad deeds while a second stays slightly out of the picture. If the first thug gets into trouble his back up races in to promptly take out those resisting him.

#2  Brazilian Federal Police are feared in Brazil. Like this lady did, they will shoot you in a heart beat. Graffiti every where except the military installations. The guards on the walls have chrome plated automatic weapons and will shoot anyone who starts to paint anything on the walls. People don't even use the sidewalks along the exterior of the walls.

Saw a military officer disciplining soldier in public. The officer was standing over the soldier as he was pulling grass out from between side walk panels one blade at a time for hours.

Shortly after Texas passed the open carry law, I went to Brazil and the young professionals there were asking me all about it. They desire at the very least the right to own a gun without government confiscation which can happen for no reason at all.
