Mark my words, in 2016 we'll be seeing the brazillian army on the streets to provide a semblance of security.

Like I said, massive security problems in Rio.....
"The reason for this is that the original Fortran got so convoluted and extensive (10's of millions of lines of code) that no-one can actually figure out how it works, there's a massive project going on to decode the original Fortran and write a more modern system, but until then, the UK communication network is actually relying heavily on 35 year old Fortran that nobody understands." - Flipside

hmm, maybe not the best ad to show


on a more serious note i was watching Chris Ryan's Armed and Dangerous the other night and he was following the police unit that deals with the Rio slums and they operate to similar standards to what he was operating to in the SAS

I saw that show as well. Quite scary that a police force have to be that well trained and that well armed to do their day-to-day job!

I will not lie, I saw that as "Police Helicopter downed by General Battuta" and I was confused.

Tropa de Elite - this film is very relevant to this discussion.
"I was going to become a speed dealer. If one stupid fairytale turns out to be total nonsense, what does the young man do? If you answered, “Wake up and face reality,” you don’t remember what it was like being a young man. You just go to the next entry in the catalogue of lies you can use to destroy your life." - John Dolan
