Police clamp down on Sao Paulo, Brazil protesters, escalataing day-by-day


People are protesting against a R$0.20 (10 cents) public transportation fee increase. Just like the Taksim square situation, the government chose not to listen to the people demands and resorted to violence, and the result is people getting angry not about the response to initial demands but to the crackdown on the protests. Seems like politicians never learn...

Not yet, but they are aiming these rubber bullets to the head of protestors. The police here are psychologically unprepared to this kind of situations. Also people are getting very very angry at the police violence. I think today we'll see incendiary bombs being thrown at the crowd control police or worse.
