Was there mostly on the Paraguay side, both in uniform and in civvies, had a great time.
Good people, though IMHO, the Brazilians see themselves as more than they are.
When they can claim that Islamic terrorists have attacked their capital and commerce centers and killed 3,000 of their citizens, then they can gladly take my photo as a threat. Till then, it seems to me to be a chickenshit reprisal.
