MST beats Cops 30-2 in riot in Brasil

[La Guaneña]

The National Landless Movement of Brazil (MST), during the realization of it's VI National Congress, that also celebrates the 30 year birthday of the movement, had a march with 15 thousand people in the Capital, Brasília.

They tried to occupy the Supreme Court, and the cops tried to stop them, having 30 injured, 8 in the hospital, while managing to injure only 2 camponeses.

That's what you get when you mess with farmers, pigs. :mad:

I'll quote what I've just seen thrown around on fb: I'll be satisfied when Eldorado dos Carajás is avenged.

I think it's a shame when we measure our victories as a point scoring exercise of how many people injured on either side. I'm not a pacifist by any means, but still I think it's a shame that this is all we have sometimes.

I agree- I wish we had more actual victories, like "this groups conditions have been improved" or some shit like that. You know?
