Start kidnapping them

I'm sure they got security like you wouldn't believe, if white people can roam around freely at night in south LA(usc) than anything is possible.

They've wanted the favela locations for ages, it's basically a world class view, so it's not shocking what's going on there.

Yeah, leading up to the World Cup and Olympics they have been "pacifying" the favelas, basically Bope kill squads go in and fukk shyt up.

They are moving poor people out of the cities, and crime is starting to spike in smaller cities where they don't give a fukk about what happens.

Kinda like when Atlanta started demolishing those projects for the Olympics.

It's for the ambiance, white people are weird like that.

Crazy that's like Palmdale and Lancaster in SoCal

And let me guess the majority of the people being moved are of color...

They want to be in the middle of it, but will complain about being in the middle of it.

The favelas got those views tho


This has been coming for a long time. I expect it to all be luxury housing in 20 years.

I can see Rio being a world class destination spot more than it is already is now.

However, it's terrible for the poor Brazilians.
