Members Lucky Posted December 23, 2018 Members Share Posted December 23, 2018 Armed snipers will patrol select areas of Rio with instructions to shoot to kill. Up to 120 gunmen will fight criminals, it is thought. Here is the article from the NY Post: *** Teams of marksmen will patrol parts of Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, with high-powered weapons and a license to kill, said a security adviser to state Gov.-elect Wilson Witzel. Bloomberg News reported Saturday that as many as 120 sharpshooters will join police patrolling the city’s slums to wipe out gun-toting criminals. The shooters will work in pairs — one pulls the trigger while the other videotapes deaths. “The protocol will be to immediately . . . slaughter anyone who has a rifle,” said Witzel, a federal judge and former Brazilian Marine. “Whoever has a rifle isn’t worried about other people’s lives, they’re ready to eliminate anyone who crosses their path.’’ *** I should point out that the referenced Bloomberg article is the better of the two, containing more information and perspective. Yet the Post got right to the point. floridarob 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
