Last year in Brazil a rich right wing white man opened fire on the federal police and even threw grenades at them.

Here's a picture of him talking to the police after the shooting (he's the old guy on the left): https://www.cnnbrasil.com.br/wp-content/uploads/sites/12/2022/10/ED_VIS_241022_IL_PF_JEFFERSON_frame_935.jpeg?w=876&h=484&crop=1

I wonder what would have happened to him if he was a poor black man.
