To know a little more about Rio's situation I recomend you this post: Ensuring a Powerful Legacy for Rio's Favelas. It's from young American who lived there and writes a blog about her experiences. Bye, have a nice weekend!
Well, your friend is right when he said things like that happen all the time in some places in Brazil. And you are also right thinking that something must be done now before it's too late. Two of the main problems are the drug dealers have several kinds of heavy fire weapons and part of the police in Rio de Janeiro is contaminated by corruption. Meanwhile these scenes of our domestic terrorism will continue to be shown on the media.
Things are bad in Rio lately. Check this news from CNN: "Rio fortifies streets after deadly shootout" - http://tinyurl.com/yh2bsm7
That's another proof that we should keep an eye on our politicians about the Olympic Games in Brazil. It's less than 7 years, but I really don't think this sad relity will change until there...
