Brazilian police murdering poor children in favellas (shanty towns) to clean up for the World Cup. Instead of completing the stadium modifications on time, and not having to bring in Croatian construction workers to do the job, they murder the poor. As someone who has grown up loving the Beautiful Game of football/soccer I am revolted but not at all surprised. Maradona said it best: FIFA are a mafia. Now Im glad I chose not to go to the World Cup of bloodshed. I would not be able to enjoy the games knowing that the poor of Brazil are suffering. My solidarity is with them.
