The police are badly trained and badly paid, and they're not respected. Instead of enforcing the law, they're raising the level of violence in this society.

It's humanizing. The policeman is now seen as a citizen who needs a salary.

I think this is very serious. The Brazilian state is in crisis.

That is a Medieval way of drawing history, in which they do not respect the law and want the rest of the world to respect the law. That's not possible.

Sometimes the law defends plunder and participates in it. Sometimes the law places the whole apparatus of judges, police, prisons and gendarmes at the service of the plunderers, and treats the victim - when he defends himself - as a criminal.

Quite simply, most police departments and law enforcement agencies do not have the capacity to figure out who is committing these crimes. They don't have the training, and they don't have the tools.
