    If his victims had been Black, that sonofabitch would be allowed to leave the country and never be seen again. But I think maybe law enforcement will keep an eye on him. We'll see.

    Sound like Pence. Warning : The video is very graphic.

    Asked by reporters, Brazilian vice-president Hamilton Mourão said on Friday that the attack was “deplorable” – but not an episode of racism. He said it was a case of “totally unprepared” security guards.
    “For me, racism doesn’t exist in Brazil,” he told reporters. “This is something they want to import into Brazil. It doesn’t exist here.



    The burial of a Black man who was choked to death by supermarket security guards on Saturday has sparked protests in Brazil that echo those of the racial justice movement in the US.

    Joao Alberto Silveira Freitas, a 40-year-old father of four, was buried yesterday wearing a white T-shirt in the southern city of Porto Alegre. His coffin was draped in the flag of his favourite football team, EC Sao Jose.

    Brazil seems much more integrated than the US. But "no racism" sounds ridiculous

    If you looked at America's sports teams, you'd think white people were a minority until you looked at the ownership / management / marketing / technical & coaching staff

    Funny how every angle, interaction and word is captured on video when it comes to clearing officers....but when they murder a citizen it magically disappears. *2 year old video

    Well, the initial blow up came from Shaun King, so it should have been viewed as a questionable accusation in the first place.
