Another pledge is to loosen restrictions on gun ownership. Many Brazilians are expecting that will happen soon.
Rildo Anjos, an owner of a gun club and a Bolsonaro supporter, said he now has 150 students, up from 100.
“It is a matter of prevention because a good citizen is not going to fight crime, that is the role of the police, but he should have the right to have guns for self-defense,” said Anjos
For that to happen, Brazil would have to scrap a 2003 disarmament law that bans almost everyone except those serving on security forces from carrying weapons. Brazil’s Congress is poised to do just that once Bolsonaro takes office. |

TO REMEMBER |
| The right of the people to keep and bear arms has been recognized by the General Government; but the best security of that right after all is, the military spirit, that taste for martial exercises, which has always distinguished the free citizens of these States....Such men form the best barrier to the liberties of America — Gazette of the United States, October 14, 1789. |
