Who knows, they could have picked up the wrong guns or they may look similair.Quote:

Wait, why would you shoot children with rubber bullets anyway? They still hurt and can injure you.
AHAHAHAHA
Hilarious. Brazillian people hate kids who live on the streets, so they probably did it on purpose.
Tehe.
You think after they shot one child they would of stopped.
They wernt living on the streets. They where part of a demonstration set up by the police, and got shot becuase the wrong bullets had been loaded and ricoshade (can't spell that word) of the bus and hit people.Quote:
