I’m going to assume this is true, but with the caveat that it is perhaps exaggerated.  Still, that’s a lot of killing. If you do the math, dividing the total by the number of days (365 * 30) you get a figure of 105 murders every day for 30 years. That would be the equivalent of 130 murders a day in the US. The current rate is roughly 27 murders a day. Keep that in mind when our rulers drool over how Brazil is doing things.
