    Just another day in the life of Brazilian politics.

    Not an uncommom scene in (Brazil's) Congress and in several State legislatures across the country....if you can't get your way through dialogue (or rather, through aggressive discussion), or feel offended (the woke assholes) resort to trying to punch their adversary in the face.....an act usually commited by lefties, who have an “inexplicable” aversion to the truth.

    When feeling threatened, lefties also resort to spitting in people's faces, just like camels......examples ? Maria do Rosário and Jean Wyllys ...two pathetic communists.

    USCuzão, here I leave you news of a beautiful song that comes from far away. Although I think you won't like this song, since the heart of the hateful fascist is not prepared to see the life that exists outside the sewer where he lives.

    By the way, the two brawlers belong to the same ideology as you. In fact, this Pablo Marçal is an ex-convict convicted of scamming elderly people on the internet.

    Do you see any similarity with yourself? All Bolsonaro supporters either pray for tires or are habitually corrupt.

    Ahh, before I forget, at the end of the world where you hide, the preference is for firearms, right?

    Brasshole,

    You unfortunately, are the only one on here spewing hatred....but then, you are just being the unhappy, frustrated leftie that you are.

    Well, you got one thing right, I am in favour of owning a gun for self-defence....after all, there are too many ignorant, deranged lefties walking around.

    One thing you obviously haven't realized - I know I'm probably asking too much of you - but guns aren't dangerous, people are.

    Just fyi, in the UK, where guns are banned, the crazies resort to using knives to assault and kill people.....if knives were banned, they'd use hammers, or something else....so, it's the humans you've got to watch out for...

    Interesting comment Jack. In Japan, a culture where historically weapon ownership was strictly regulated by class, there was a term, “Tori Ma” or flying demon, applied to the commoner who finally had it and snapped, running through the town stabbing all they encountered. A problem that transcends language, culture and time...

    imoyaro,

    You're right, it's the nature of certain human beings.

    Sure, a gun makes it easier to carry out any malicious intent, however if one is not available, anything else will do...
