Rules:

Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.

We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.

All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.

BRASILIA, April 10 (Reuters) - Brazil's tax revenue secretary Robinson Barreirinhas said ‌on Friday that more than 1,100 weapons were seized over the past 12 ⁠months arriving from the United States, and that in the first quarter alone authorities have seized more than 1.5 tons of ‌drugs. Brazil ⁠has begun feeding a system with data on weapons entering Brazil from ⁠the U.S., Barreirinhas said during the announcement of ⁠a Brazil-U.S. action against organized crime.

Whole "article."

When the U.S. sends them, they don't send their best.
