100K protesters flood Brazilian streets in protest

hotlinked

SAO PAULO (AP) ? Some of the biggest demonstrations since the end of Brazil's 1964-85 dictatorship have broken out across this continent-sized country, uniting tens of thousands frustrated by poor transportation, health services, education and security despite a heavy tax burden.

More than 100,000 people were in the streets Monday for largely peaceful protests in at least eight big cities. However, demonstrations in Rio de Janeiro and Belo Horizonte were marred by vandalism and violent clashes with police.

About two dozen people were reported injured.

The wave of protests, which began over a hike in bus prices, was also in large part motivated by widespread images of Sao Paulo police last week beating demonstrators and firing rubber bullets during a march that drew 5,000. In Rio, the violent police crackdown on a small and peaceful crowd Sunday near the Maracana stadium incited many to come out for what local news media described as the city's largest protest in a generation.

Tuesday's newspapers and morning news shows were filled with images of clashes between demonstrators and police in Rio, Porto Alegre, Belo Horizonte. The vast majority of Rio's protesters were peaceful, but a small group of demonstrators attacked the state legislature building, setting a nearby car and other objects ablaze. The newspaper O Globo cited Rio state security officials as saying at least 20 officers and 10 protesters were injured there.

Monday's protests came during soccer's Confederations Cup and just one month before a papal visit, a year before the World Cup and three years ahead of the 2016 Olympics in Rio de Janeiro. The unrest is raising security concerns and renewed questions over Brazil's readiness to host the mega-events.

A cyber-attack knocked the government's official World Cup site offline, and the Twitter feed for Brazil's Anonymous group posted links to a host of other government websites whose content had been replaced by a screen calling on citizens to come out to the streets.

In a brief statement late Monday, President Dilma Rousseff acknowledged the demonstrations, saying: "Peaceful demonstrations are legitimate and part of democracy. It is natural for young people to demonstrate." Rousseff recently saw her popularity rating recently dip for the first time in her presidency, largely over sluggish growth, increasing inflation and security worries. Rousseff faces re-election next year.

Brazilians have long tolerated pervasive corruption, but in about 40 million Brazilians have moved out of poverty and into the middle class over the past decade and they have begun to demand more from government. Many are angry that billions of dollars in public funds are being spent to host the World Cup and Olympics while few improvements are made elsewhere.

In Rio, the confrontation between police and a small group of protesters dragged on late into the night despite sporadic rain. As the group moved on the state legislature building, footage broadcast by the Globo television network showed police firing into the air. At least one demonstrator in Rio was injured after being hit in the leg with a live round allegedly fired by a law enforcement official.

Local news media reported that a high school student in Maceio was shot in the face after a motorist forced his way through the demonstrators' barricade. Protesters were raining fists down on the car when a shot was fired. The extent of the 16-year-old's injuries were not immediately known.

In Sao Paulo, Brazil's economic hub, at least 65,000 protesters gathered Monday at a small, treeless plaza then broke into three directions in a Carnival atmosphere, with drummers beating out samba rhythms as people chanted anti-corruption jingles. They also railed against the action that sparked the first protests last week: a 10-cent hike in bus and subway fares.

Thousands of protesters in the capital, Brasilia, peacefully marched on Congress. Dozens scrambled up a ramp to a low-lying roof, clasping hands and raising their arms, the light from below sending their elongated shadows onto the structure. Some congressional windows were broken, but police did not use force.

No problems here. But hospitals are realy bad here. Heard that people died waiting for a simple surgery. Or they cut you open without anesthesia. In the bigger cities it must be better, if you are able to bribe a good surgeon.

Last year was worse, the police striked than for 1 week. The second day there was no police groups plunder shops, busses where being robbed and poeole where robbed on the street. Who could stay inside stayed inside their house. Of course the police started the strike 1 week before carnival so they geot extra money so carnival could go on. Expect this also coming worldcup, an excellent time to demonstrate for more money.

And no wonder you get shot when you try to ruin a car, that is normal here. When the police striked somebody tried to rob a gasonline station. He got also shot in the face. When there is no police to protect you, the people protect themselves.

Over 100,000 people demonstrating and setting fires.

About two dozen reported injured.

That doesn't sound right.

No, but there are criminals. When there is no police, they try to steal and rob everything. But it is only a small percentage that screws it for 99% of the good people. And that small group of criminals has weapons and don't hesitate to use them. So people are afraid to intervene cause there is always the change you get a lunatic who shoot you for nothing.

In Holland civilians would patrol on the street if something happened like this and there was no police. But that is too risky in Brazil.

But in the end, what are we talking about? I saw bigger demonstrations in Holland. And in the USA something happened after Rodney King and people also start robing after Hurricane Katrina.

People will start demontsrations 2 weeks before the world cup. They will protest for more salary. Cause the government don't want to stop the Worldcup the people get 15 - 20% more salary. That is how it went last year just before the Carnival. And that is what happened last year when the teachers stopped working also. After 2 weeks protesting they got 15% more salary. And now they want again 15% more salary

I predict there is a 95% change the military police will go on strike just before the worldcup.

And they are right. Corruption is astonishing here. The mayor of a big city didn't pay governemnt people for 3 months (teachers/police/garbage collectors) and went away with millions. Leaving the city with hundreds milions of debts so they had to cancel carnival. Is normal in Brazil, nobody is surprised. Look at most international companies that try to start in Brazil, a lot of them stop after some years due to corruption.

But tehre are only a few protests, nothing to worry about. I hope things will change, but the corruption will go on for some more decades.

They build the stadiums, but the price is already 3 times higher than expected.
The corruption works, some peole has become rich by building the stadiums.
If you would have so much money on a stadium in Europe you would have the best stadium in the world with the newest technologies. Here you just have a concrete building without any fancy new things for a much higher price. And probabely the stadium will collapse after 10 years.

"Romario, the former World Cup winning striker turned critic, summed it up in an Instagram post on Tuesday: "I told you, the 2014 World Cup is going to be the biggest robbery in history of Brazil.""

That's just it, you didn't. You posted a meaningless rhetorical.

Here's a tip. Make a point when posting. Answering questions with more questions constantly is a sophmoric teenage way of avoiding that. It's gotten to the point where even Socrates himself would tell you to man up and take a stance...

My stance is clear. There is no revolution pending anywhere unless people are starving. Brazil has this problem, especially in Sao Paul. No where in Canada does this exist. Poverty in Canada is owning only 1 flat screen tv and 1 game console system with full health benefits and province provided housing if needed. Comparing their situation to ours is not only ignorant it is sickening.

He asked you two questions. One would have forced thought and commitment. The second was a rhetorical "are you insane?" You skipped the first question that forced thought and commitment, and focused on the rhetorical in which you issued your own rhetorical back

I'll let you Canadians duke this one out.

TheSquealer · 06-19-2013, 09:54 AM

Gee _Richard_.... others seem to be calling you out for the same stupid shit I do. Your stupid, safe rhetorical questions because you are thoroughly incapable of forming a complete thought, articulating it and defending it.

Ever wonder how many people think you're a total witless fucking douchebag but don't say it? I'm betting not.... but i'm guessing you're gonna have to start.

EddyTheDog · 06-19-2013, 09:54 AM

I wonder if we will see a world cup next year - Didn't they close one of the main stadiums as well because it was unsafe?..

This should really be Brasil's decade - Shame it is getting fucked up.....

so, i am not 'really comparing' brazils problems to canada. i am comparing the similarities of heavy handed police tactics in both countries.

The same or worse would have happened in Rotterdam if Feyenoord would have won the Dutch soccer competition. Brazil is almost as big as the USA or whole Europe. The riots in Greece where bigger. Why do people think the whole country is on fire?

I just watched Brazil - Mexico (2-0) no problems here in the pub.
These are the pre-games for the Worldcup in the Worldcup stadiums.
And the stadium didn't collapse (yet).

Brazil woman, you can't live with them, you don't want to live without them!

People are really mad here. They are releasing their old hidden anger. I've never seen anything like this. It seems that this is just the beginning. It's not only in one place. It is everywhere!

They've already dropped the bus ticket prices, but this is not enough when you live in a "fake country" where everything is fucked up.

Today also protest here, i think around 4000 people. But have seen the same last year when they wanted the corrupt mayor away (he went away stealing milions of dollars and let the city behind with big debts).

I predict, nothing will change for another 10 years. Corruption is wide spread here.
Last week 2 surgeons beat a gringo for nothing in a bar, hitting him while he was on the ground with 3 man. When they called the police they start threatening the security and the police saying, "You know who i am and who i know. Are you sure you want to arrest me, that will cost you your job". And in fact, that could be true. Some fucked up crazy guy here raped a 6 year old boy 6 months ago. I saw him walking around here last month, his father is an important man here with good politcial contacts....

Or they cut you open without anesthesia. In the bigger cities it must be better, if you are able to bribe a good surgeon. Last year was worse, the police striked than for 1 week. The second day there was no police groups plunder shops, busses where being robbed and poeole where robbed on the street. Who could stay inside stayed inside their house. Of course the police started the strike 1 week before carnival so they geot extra money so carnival could go on. Expect this also coming worldcup, an excellent time to demonstrate for more money. And no wonder you get shot when you try to ruin a car, that is normal here. When the police striked somebody tried to rob a gasonline station. He got also shot in the face. When there is no police to protect you, the people protect themselves. __________________ everything is fake Last edited by Tasty1; 06-18-2013 at 04:12 PM..

Your stupid, safe rhetorical questions because you are thoroughly incapable of forming a complete thought, articulating it and defending it. Ever wonder how many people think you're a total witless fucking douchebag but don't say it? I'm betting not.... but i'm guessing you're gonna have to start. __________________ .

This should really be Brasil's decade - Shame it is getting fucked up.....

Brazil is almost as big as the USA or whole Europe. The riots in Greece where bigger. Why do people think the whole country is on fire? I just watched Brazil - Mexico (2-0) no problems here in the pub. These are the pre-games for the Worldcup in the Worldcup stadiums. And the stadium didn't collapse (yet). Brazil woman, you can't live with them, you don't want to live without them! __________________ everything is fake

Crazy Enough Confirmed User Industry Role: Join Date: Jun 2011 Posts: 449	This video will help you understand why Brazil is on fire. People are really mad here. They are releasing their old hidden anger. I've never seen anything like this. It seems that this is just the beginning. It's not only in one place. It is everywhere! They've already dropped the bus ticket prices, but this is not enough when you live in a "fake country" where everything is fucked up.

Tasty1 Confirmed User Industry Role: Join Date: Jan 2005 Location: South-America Posts: 9,504	Today also protest here, i think around 4000 people. But have seen the same last year when they wanted the corrupt mayor away (he went away stealing milions of dollars and let the city behind with big debts). I predict, nothing will change for another 10 years. Corruption is wide spread here. Last week 2 surgeons beat a gringo for nothing in a bar, hitting him while he was on the ground with 3 man. When they called the police they start threatening the security and the police saying, "You know who i am and who i know. Are you sure you want to arrest me, that will cost you your job". And in fact, that could be true. Some fucked up crazy guy here raped a 6 year old boy 6 months ago. I saw him walking around here last month, his father is an important man here with good politcial contacts.... __________________ everything is fake Last edited by Tasty1; 06-20-2013 at 01:57 PM..
