This is Eduardo de Jesus Ferreira. He’s a 10 year old kid who died yesterday, killed by the police who was in confrontation with criminals at a chanty town in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. He was sitting by the door at his house, reading, when he was suddenly shot in the head by a police officer, who alleged he had a “gun”- actually his smartphone.When his mother (picture on the left) protested, the police officer threatened to harm her too. The citizens of the chanty town went out to the streets to protest and were cowardly put off by the police, who used pepper sprays and gas bombs. Eduardo is the sixth innocent person to be harmed by the police in the last 2 days, and the third one to die. We cannot allow this to go unnoticed.Please reblog and help spread this! May our best thoughts be with all those harmed.#GuerranoAlemão

At least 7 more people were killed by the police on that raid. There are videos of the incident running around the internet, but I’m not sure if Eduardo’s family is OK with images of their dead child being spread all over the internet.

Also there are already misleading pictures being spread of a kid holding a rifle, supposed to be of Eduardo. They’re not. It’s just typical right-wing phony-ass behavior.

It’s important to point out that, while all of this happening, there’s a discussion in Brazil right now about reducing the age where a person can be legally charged for a crime from 18 to 16. While pre-pubescent kids are being slaughtered in the favelas, politicians are pushing to throw 16 year olds in the prison industrial complex, with the support of a significant part of the population.
