    “All the hoodlums already have guns, it’s only the good guys who don’t!” Mr. Bolsonaro said in a radio interview earlier this year. He said Saturday that he plans to issue a decree allowing all Brazilians without criminal records to own firearms.

    Nice summary and solution.

    Just wait and watch... here in the USA we'll hear more about accidents, suicides, etc. "because of" this new policy than we ever did about what a lawless ****-hole Brazil's urban areas have become.

    I was there for a handgun match 15 years ago. Civilians weren't allowed any military or law enforcement calibers. 357 was ok, but not 38 special. They would buy a 30 caliber barrel & chamber it for 30-357. Sort of a poor man's makeshift 300 Blackout. Of course it was in a lever action or a single shot. Import fees (duty tax) was equal to the value of the gun.
