    Yeah, they only seem to have started caring about it now :/



    Yup, I am! I normally stay in Alegre for uni but I'm in Vit�ria until March 28th.

    And I saw lots of bodies too :/

    Wow that's some intense shit. It seems like it's basically chaos. There are mobs and gangs and shit down there too, right? You'd think with the police gone, somebody else would step up. that's like the compete dissolution of law and order.

    I was trying to understand how something like this happened. Near as I can tell, the police didn't get paid so they want on strike?
    What's my definition of success?
    Creating something no one else can
    Being brave enough to dream big
    Grindin' when you're told to just quit
    Giving more when you got nothin' left

    So far so good. The army is here and they're taking care of things, trying to put everything back in it's place.
    If it will work... only time will tell xD
    At least they sent help

    Yup, that's right.

    They haven't gotten a raise in 7 years, there's been an inflation of about 40% over that period of time. Considering it's a dangerous job, the police officers' families aren't letting them go to work.
    It's kinda like a forced strike.
    They want to work, they know what's going on but their families won't let em'
    And it's not like they can simply arrest or shoot their own families for that :/

    As @(you need an account to see links) said, government sent army troops to our state, and things are starting to be better.
    I work as a trainee at a public agency related to justice, and it suspended the activities because no one is safe going out its homes, so I didn't worked today, and I won't work tomorrow.
    Medical Legal Department is crowded, so the bodies are at the streets. More than 50 people died this weekend.
    I live next a big commercial centre and they robbed and destroyed almost all the shops.
    Things wasn't already going ok because of the economic crisis, then it happened and made everything worse.
    Thanks God I'm safe, locked at home with my family, nothing happened to us (despite the fact we hear some criminals shooting and laughing about it at the streets) and it seems that with the army here things are going to be better. Hopefully, it seems that all the chaos will end, but I'm sad with what the criminals made to our state.

    That's a lot of people, good they decided to send the army, still, what a huge mess that could have been avoided.
    I'm so impressed this is not being covered a lot though, here in Chile the subject is not being addressed and it's news time already, plus we are so close and all... I'm also checking social media and I do have friends from Brazil, not from that area though, and they don't seem to say much either. They do talk a lot about the superbowl of course, like if that is important...

    I hope things get better guys

    I hope you stay safe! It's so unfortunate that there are malicious people out there who would take an opportunity like this to endanger others Praying for you and all the others in Esp�rito Santo
