Bolsonaro's Arms Decree Raises Questions On Fight Against Violence In Brazil

People watch guns at the Top Gun shop in downtown São Paulo, Brazil, on 21 January 2019. The decree signed by Brazilian President Jair Bolsonaro, which makes firearms more accessible, has raised questions about its possible effects in the fight against violence. Possession of weapons was already regulated in Brazil by decree since 2004, but now the far-right ruler included a series of situations that allow greater access for civilians to have weapons in their homes or in their commercial establishments.
