How long must we sing this song?
After the second foreigner came o to me to ask me about the situation in São Paulo, I felt obliged to make small, but very informative, post.
So far, 152 people were killed; there were 293 atacks (82 buses, 56 cops, 17 banks and others) and 124 people were arrested. That's more dead people in a week than in Bagda, where there is still actual "war".
The good news is that, yesterday night, there were no attacks whatsoever in the city, and we're all hoping that they'll be over soon.
I wish all the best to the people in São Paulo, especially my father, my stepmother and my siblings. I don't know what I'd possibly do if I ever lost one of them.
I don't think this kind of situation will happen in Rio, where I live nowadays, but, with Rio, you never know. One day you don't have anything to worry about (relatively speaking, of course), on the other you look around and realize the whole commerce is shut due to the Big Boys that control the drugs traffic, and, therefore, control the city.
"And it's true we are immune when fact is fiction and TV reality." - Sunday Bloody Sunday, by U2.
Call me a coward, but all of this just makes me wish even more to one day get out of here and go live my life somewhere else.

But... There isn't any army here Lu... The governor refused all the army support, to doesn't make the situation appears worst than really was(sic)...
But now everything are ok, and we are walking through the city like nothing happened... :P
And it's strange to ready about Rio in English... I don't know why, but it's really not commom xD
And live abroad isn't a cowardky thing, you just go when you have better opportunities and things like that. And we can always come back and go to another places :)
I miss you a lot, little Lu!
Kisses =**********

I got that completely wrong. I will edit the post.
I had to post in English, because a friend of mine from Ohio and another one from Netherland both asked me for news on the matter. They got worried about me.
I miss you, too. =*****
