Oh, and the BBC is reporting that the victim did apparently live an a violent São Paulo slum. Like I said, had I spent a good part of my life there, I'd run if chased by armed thugs, too. He survives that shithole, only to die like this. Nice.

And artbrooks, I'd still say he'd be considered "swarthy" or "dark," at least by pasty-ass English standards. Why are so many people so reluctant to believe that these pigs murdered a man because he looked "foreign?" Do you guys actually think that if instead of a dusky, unibrow'd Brazilian electrician, he'd been a blonde, blue eyed, Icelandic electrician, that it wouldn't have been different? Fucking please.
