RE: All life is sacred. No exceptions. No excuses.
Yes, life is sacred and it is for everyone. But I am disgusted by what is happening in Brazil today.
When criminals are identified and arrested, they are often protected by someone who represents Human Rights or the Rights of Children and Adolescents in the event of a crime committed by a person under the age of 18.
Support for the criminal is often faster than the victim or his family.
We should do our part yes, becoming better people focusing on living well with life, in peace and harmony with everybody.
But it is difficult when the government imposes laws that go against our simple sense of justice.
The state, no matter which country we are in, is founded in violence and coercion. The state is a huge part of the problem, yet people still support it, fund it and participate with it. That makes them complicit as well. This problem is pervasive, deep and all encompassing. Is anybody standing up to this stuff in the land that people mistakenly call 'Brazil'?
Here the greatest violence is not that of common thugs but rather of corrupt rulers who divert resources that should take care of health, safety, pensions.
When the government is omitted and fails, crime takes over the streets, as seen in recent times in the city of Rio de Janeiro.
