I saw lands next to a small city to the State of Pará to be given without-lands and they sold the trees of 5m of height in foot for 1/3 of the value of the cubical meter of the wood while that mount of women talked, with children dirty running in return and another mount of men passed the seated day playing cards, smoking and drinking, I asked why they did not knock down to measure and then sell the wood, they reply short and it was followed of laughs as if I was dull to ask that: ' it is too much work '. After few months, they already had sold the lots of lands for a very low price and they were another time disturbing the life of the city with that mount of children being used to ask for almses and to touch the people. Something very similar can be witnessed every day in an invasion in entrance of city of Belém where it has lands where they could plant for their survival but they nor keep the clean place, nor takes care of of children that, now and then, are running over in highway that passes in front and they live blocking it in protests to ask for blocks in the highway, that the city hall orders to clean the area and to collect the garbage, that does not have electricity and canalized water and that the basic basket is very little and ' nor comes with meat of first quality, nor a coke, nor a CIGARETTE package, chocolate... ' and ' ours children need something tasty', only some of the things that they find themselves in the right to receive gratuitously when there are millions of workers who nor meat of third quality have to eat, many times they nor have something to eat. When I speak in serious birth control is because children are the victims of this irresponsible people and, mainly, are give birth to be used as commotion. It is the irresponsible parasitic culture.
AND OTHER CRIME LAST WEEK: http://www.estadao.com.br/nacional/noticias/2005/mar/08/185.htm
