  • The policy adopted by Bolsonaro contributes to expanding access to weapons by the Primeiro Comando da Capital (PCC) and other criminal factions, explained Estadão in a report. Last Wednesday (21), four days before publication, the press reported that the Armed Forces admitted to having given authorization for a member of the PCC to buy a rifle.

    After government measures have facilitated the possession and access to ammunition and weapons for CACs (collectors, shooters or hunters), supervision became more vulnerable. According to the Sou da Paz Institute, weapons licenses for this group grew 262% between July 2019 and March 2022.

    In reaction to the facts, Twitter users capitalized the phrase “BOLSONARO ARMED THE PCC“, which was Trending Topics on the platform.

Carlos Bolsonaro, son of the president and councilor in Rio de Janeiro, responded to the barrage of criticism on his Twitter account. “They never stop lying and the supra-constitutionalists never tire of pretending that they are blind!”, he contested, without providing evidence for his claims.
