Title: Black Hawk Down.
Post by: suckmymuscle on April 23, 2011, 06:44:24 PM
  Bandits shoot down the police helicopter using anti-aircraft shell. Seriously, the Brazilian government should hire the Unites States Marine Corps to fight these drug dealers. Obviously, they are too heavily armed even for the SWATS that fight them.

  As a libertarian, I favor legalization but this wouldn't solve the problem and here is why: the criminals would switch to armed robbery, kidnapping and terrorism to earn money. If you had the option to work 14 hours a day to make U.S$500.00 a month, or make several times that amount per day in crime, what would be your choice? Sure, lots of people would prefer to work for whatever reason instead of using violence against people, but it's a lot easier to chose work in the U.S than in a country like Brazil where you work twice as hard as an American to earn 30 times less. That is a huge incentive to become criminal. Many highly aggressive young men feel a deep anger at the thought that they will work all day long in a horrible job just to earn enough cash to eat and have a shitty roof over their heads, whilst the rich don't have to work and enjoy a life of pure pleasure. They know that even if they work all day long for 40 years they will still never make it because you need money and education to become rich which they don't have. They want to have a life before they die and not just be a worker bee that has no fun and then perishes. Hence, many of the most aggressive young men will choose crime for as long as Society is innately cruel.

Or you will have the "Taxi Driver" effect and young men will get sick of seeing others being abused and chose to be a part of society and take it on their own to do something about it...Many educated and men with money still have the same feelings of those naive men...Trust me!

you cant think that way, first legalize this then worry about what happens

if everyone would think this way drinking would still be illegal and so would 5 million other things

in addition having 500,000 people in jail because of a plant is the ultimate kidnapping

  They are the only "police" force in the World that uses .50 machine guns, grenades, ground-to-ground artillary shells and short range bazookas. They make American S.W.A.T teams seem like the Girl Scouts in comparison. They are for all practical purposes an elite military division disguised as "police". And yet the drug dealers in Rio are comparably armed, so numerous and so violent that even with an entire military division of 10,000 men they still can't keep crime in check.

  A few yeara go there was a scandal, as the government was offering rewards for the heads of criminals, and the BOPE guys just started to kill random people in cold blood and then deliver their heads to the government to collect their reward.

OH how wrong you are, look into Russia's OMON and OMON/Spetsnaz units these guys are on par with 1st-SFOD-D when it comes to getting shit done.

also part of the reason for the problem is old school Russian RPG-7's are so cheap and easy to acquire.

  In Russia, there is no distinction between military and police units. Putin runs the country like a gangster. BOPE is officially a police force, and yet is uses .50 machine guns, ground-to-ground artillary, bazookas and all other stuff that is off-limits to S.W.A.T in America. I don't know if you are aware of it, but U.S Marine Corps officers came to Rio before the second war in 2003 and took lessons from BOPE on urban warfare. BOPE is considered the best force in urban combat in the World.

suckadick...

BOPE and Policia Civil use to get bodybag fees, but they drove the murder rate up to 50k in one year, because your mom would have been an easy payday for them vs battles with AdosA and CV.

Believe it or not Rio is pretty passive.  It's some zones which are buck wild like south west where they are feeding each other to reptiles.  As noted, as a tourist, you don't have shit to worry about.  

in south america you keep the poor in check with FREE housing, TV (sopa operas) and FREE food programs to keep their stomachs full.  

Drugs are just from inequality equal to Africa.  Balance the field similar to north america and 90% of the shit will go away.    

Now...be warned a lot of ASSES are going to get jacked for the World Cup and Olympics but you can thank the Govt for that if you are one of the lucky few to get stabbed on Copa beach.

are you on fucking crack??!, they may have a few rpg's  but NOTHING that will touch a Ka-50 or F22

here are it's armaments, it can engage targets at out to 8km :)

"The aircraft carries a substantial load of weapons in four external hardpoints under the stub wings plus two on the wingtips, a total of some 2,000 kg depending on the mix.[19]

The main armament are the twelve laser-guided Vikhr anti-tank missiles with a maximum range of some 8 km. The laser guidance is reported to be virtually jam-proof and the system features automatic guidance to target, enabling evasive action immediately after missile launch. The fire control system automatically shares all target information among the four Black Sharks of a typical flight in real time, allowing one helicopter to engage a target spotted by another, and the system can also input target information from ground-based forward scouts with personnel-carried target designation gear.[citation needed] The Ka-50 can also carry several Rocket pods, which include the S-13 and the S-8 rockets. The rockets, rocket pods, and along with the Ka-50 can be upgraded to the Ugroza Precision-guided munition system.[20] The integrated 30 mm cannon is semi-rigidly fixed on the helicopter's side, movable only slightly in elevation and azimuth. The semi-rigid mounting improves the cannon's accuracy"

  A hand bazooka can down any helicopter. Why? Even if the armor can resist frickin' missiles, the amount of damage caused by the bazooka to the internal engines and guiding systems will make the chopper go down. In Vietnam, helicopters were put down with AK-47s when the bullets hit critical spots on the helicopter. A chain is only as strong as it's weakest links, and a helicopter, any, has many weak links. that's what happens when you fly, dude. A tank, conversely, has very few weak links and is very hard to take out. That is why the Brazilian goverment used tanks and not helicopters to take the Complexo do Alemão, Rio's most dangerous favela.

Just an FYI: you're talking about huey's in the 60's, I'm talking about stealth attack helicopters that can pull 3.5g's

sure those slow ass huey's were getting shot down by fire from AK's because the tail rotor's and engine bay's were relatively unprotected, also in regards to your 'hand bazooka' claim, here are the ballistics for the RPG-7 (most commonly use bazooka around the world)

Weight    7 kg (15 lb)
Length    950 mm (37.4 in)
Caliber    85mm
Muzzle velocity    115 m/s
Effective range    200m
Maximum range    ~ 920 m (1000 yd) (self detonates)

Like I said in the previous post, the Ka-50/Ka-52 can engage multiple targets at ~8KM

you do the math :)

and I'm sure the reason the Brazilians went in with tanks instead of attack helicopters is because they most likely
wanted to scare the criminals and not just fly in and annihilate them all.
