Do you think there might be some pent up rage in Brazil?
Arms are the only true badge of liberty. The possession of arms is the distinction of the free man from the slave.

I prefer dangerous freedom over peaceful slavery.

That looks like any trailer park in the US during a cold snap. Aside from the fact that this guy started a bon fire and was able to move that far away without any legs, why is this picture so awesome?

One of the triggering events was a 10 cent fare increase on public transit. So, yes, just a bit of rage. But that doesn't make Brazil unique. What got me was the photo.

It's an amazing composition: the sense of anarchy and mayhem, the mohawk, the fire, the jubilation over destroying something. I don't know-it just has this whole Mad Max vibe that I dig. It's a great shot.

If I recall correctly, you also questioned my selection of a Barbi Benton photo a few years ago. No accounting for artistic taste.

It is all pretty freaky.

For now, the only answer is that there is a dissatisfaction and diffuse irritation and even then not properly perceived. But the only certainty is that the strength and incredible ability to mobilize social networks that are revolutionizing the Arab world are being repeated here. There, to overthrow authoritarian regimes. And here, where the authoritarian regime was already long gone?

It is not the time for answers, but of doubts, of questions. Rousseff simply does not have anything to say. Actually, no one has. The word is with the protesters, but they are so many and so different that they might not yet have answers. Something is happening. What, no one knows exactly.

Quit exaggerating. I heard it was nine cents on the public transit fare.
