Sorry to get into an off topic thread but "illiterate rather unorganized people" is not a privilege of Brazil only... Many people die everyday in the USA and everywhere in the World by dumb people commiting small crimes and carrying guns around. It is very dangerous to get into liquor stores at night, for example. Many people get killed because they were in the wrong place at the wrong time anywhere in the World !
