Brazil Parliament Votes To Allow Air Passengers To Carry Light Firearms From Thomas Buyea ranger116@webtv.netFrom Tom?s Mano de Carvalho AllianceNacional do Brasil 09.15.01
RIO DE JANEIRO - To avoid that an aircraft is used as bomb against important buildings, the Brazilian parlament decided today to liberate light weapons (calibre less than 0.38) for all passengers over 21 years old. As 65% of all Brazilians with income more than US$ 2000 always walks equipped with gun, the government finds it safe and guaranteed that sufficient persons will react against any eventual highjackings.Extra information will be distributed and presented by the air hostess. When they show the safety equipment they will also inform the passengers to prepare eventual shot with precision, always take aim at chest to avoid that bullets perforate the shell of the aircraft. The president, Fernando Henrique Cardoso, wanted to make his veto against the proposal, but was rejected by the astounding majority of 234 against 6 votes.Pass this information to American news-agencies to lighten a new angle in perspective of criminality.

    Having flown all over Brazil, I can tell you this somewhat surprises me....guns are highly regulated and there is little to no hunting. The goverment taxes and regulates everything down there. I'll let you know after my next trip how it works....may be a great test case to see how much crime drops.
