The First Referendum On Gun Ownership In The World

Recommended Posts

Brazil is not at war with anyone, nor is there a civil war in the country, but there are more gun deaths here than in any other country. :P

Some years ago, Brazilians marched for gun control. They wanted to bring pressure on the National Congress in Brasilia to speed up the approval of a new gun law to try to reduce the number of deaths.

The result from all that campaing is coming soon: next month we will decide whether to ban the sale of guns in a national referendum. Oh well.
