Another awesome thing: on the street here you can buy BOPE "sequels" (up to "Tropa de Elite 4").
"Tropa de Elite 2" is the film "Noticias de uma Guerra Particular". A documentary that takes on the clash between police and drug gangs in Rio from a sociological perspective (in some ways, an anti- Tropa de Elite).
"Tropa de Elite 3" is a collage of videos from police operations in favelas.
"Tropa de Elite 4" is the film Qase Dois Irmaos, a drama about old friends who meet later in life: one as a senator, and the other a dealer.
And I haven't even got around to the totally unlicensed BOPE dolls yet. Waiting on a picture.

If I'm not mistaken, 'Noticias de uma guerra particular' is a documentary which was released as an extra on the 'Cidade de Deus' DVD.
You had to be from USA...americans who think everything has to be done like it is in your country, think you are models to society. Think about how your president is acting, about what hes been doing for years to innocent people in Iraq. It's gross. And then you talk about peace?! Yes Brasil has a lot of problems, that nobody can deny, but who are YOU to judge anyone or anything?! Are you perfect? Is the country you live at perfect? Think about what you're saying, it's just plain dumb.
