Rio de Janeiro - Crime & Safety

[Sperto]

For your knowledge, great majority of the people do not live in favelas.

Actually 30% of the Rio population live in favelas. According to you they all are bandits.

Great majority do not want anything to do with favela people.

Your porteiro, the cashier, taxidriver etc etc, most of them live in the comunidades.

Unlike you, I live in Rio and I can see what is going on in favelas day by day.

Right, I don't live in Rio. However I've spent plenty of time in Rio. I stayed in favelas and the people I met there are the most hardworking, generous and honest people I ever met.

I know a lot of gringos living in Rio. I've seen your type many times. A gringo living in Rio, with only a few local friends and scared shitless of everybody living outside your bairro.

Everyone living in the favelas are criminals?
Not surprising to hear such a bullsh*t comment from Perkele, who is suffering from favela paranoia.
You should have a forum thread "Discrimination against brazilians".

I was once like many other here, thinking that there are good people in favelas but the truth has come to me too. Living here and understanding the whole concept has been an eye opening experience.

They better clean the place up before the 2014 World Cup and the 2016 Olympics.

T502 was extremely quiet last night.. maybe 10-15 girls, 10 guys .. the girls were almost begging...

I was there Tuesday, same deal, very light on GDP's and clients. Ironically the 3 girls that I do there regularly all sleep on site. Maybe have to offer them a wekend pad to stay at ;-)

What is the problem, just surround a favela by favela with armed forces, give anyone 2 hours to get out and then just kill everyone that stays. End of the story.

This is like cancer, its necessary to remove good living tissue in order to get rid of the cancer. Same here. Anyway, there is no innocent in any favela.

What do you think this -- the West Bank? where you can just come in, surround the ghetto, and exterminate? its hubris like this that gets people fed up with the american mentality (and that of its 'ally')

This is not good, all my faveladinhas/safadinhas will not be able to get to work tonight. T 502 will probably only have half the staff on!

Polícia Militar, Polícia Pacificadora, Polícia Federal, BOPE, Marinha and even 800 soldiers from the Exército. Against Comando Vermelho and os Amigos dos Amigos who joined together against the police.

The situation looks very bad. Hopefully the police will manage invading the favelas and occupy them, taking full control, getting rid of all the bandits and build permanent police posts. It worked quite well in the favelas in Zona Sul.
However it will be a very hard work. Complexo do Alemão is huge, with a population of 300'000.

People all over Rio are scared of going out on the streets.

Less tourism expected at New Year in Rio, at least less national tourism.

My opinion is that the criminals simply have a tad too much human rights here. What is the problem, just surround a favela by favela with armed forces, give anyone 2 hours to get out and then just kill everyone that stays. End of the story.

YES! Liquidate zee ghetto!

Television coverage shows the trafficant force to be in fairly large numbers. Although the cameras capture them running from police rifle fire, not many of them are getting hit. Maybe if the police would employ Raptor drones they could wipe out larger numbers of these terrorist dirt bags. The current strategy is just driving them underground to return and cause mayhem another day. Although the terrorism is being waged throughout Rio de Janeiro, most of the bandits are in the Penha and Alemao favelas and hide among the populations of 20,000 people who live there.

Army troops may not be such a good idea. The trafficants are at war with the police militar, and the Pacification Police, not the Brasilian army. Army forces would be a temporary band-aid and would go away when the situation calms down. The problem would only be put back in the laps of the local authorities when Army forces are pulled out. The Rio police militar need to get control of the situation now, not later.

Actually different criminal factions have joined together because of current mayor's attempt of taking favela's under police control.

There is a rumor that on Saturday different criminal factions will attack any commuter in Linha Vermelha and Via Dutra.

They've got to capture a few and insert micro chips into their brains, and then release them back into the favelas.

[Poucolouco]

The favela wars seems to get even worse today. It's a shame they can't use the army to take the control of the favelas. At least they can use the Marinha's armoured vehicles and drivers.

I feel sorry for the innocent people getting hurt.
