police officers here in Brazil say that the trunk cage is like a mother's heart, always fits another one

It’s amazing how a random American YouTuber can make better journalism than most mainstream media.

Brazilian television is itching because the guy did a sensational job without prejudice and worthy of a real reporter, for more reports like this about our country

As a Brazilian, i have to say thankyou. Some time ago another content creator showed the side of the crime, full of lies and essentially mocking about what happens here, be showed us the right side. Thank you so much. You don't know how good you did.

Thanks for coming.

This dude went from interviewing in Austin, to interviewing in the favelas lol. Mad respect mate keep up the good work!

Media is really angry and making noise here in Brazil, because that's REAL journalism! Nice work!😂😂

Just a note for English speakers: When the officers say 'vocation,' they likely mean the Portuguese word 'vocação,' which is much closer to having a 'calling' or a deep sense of purpose for the job.

The Brazilian media is fuming over this... you did a great job!!

one of the cops used a common pt-br expression that I love sooo much "it's rare, but it happens a lot". (those weren't his exact words but yeah, you get it)

Im brazilian and I feel really happy to see these police officers, respectful and intelligent, with a good english too

Thanks for showing so much respect to one of the best in Brazil, São Paulo's military police are top of the game, and they deserve lots of respect. Thank you for this awesome video.

That's definitely the most honest interview/documentary made by a foreigner about the brazilian police. Congrats!

This is an great documentary, as a rookie cop in São Paulo, you showed an piece of our reality. 18° Battalion is one of the most Hardcore areas in the capital, cops there are on a whole other level, this is a Força Tática company. They act like the first line of support for the small patrols units, what we call 01, squad cars with only 2 officers and no heavy weapons, they only got their pistols. To become a Força Tática cop you need to have some time and experience on the force and apply for a very difficult internship that can last months and only a few make it and earn their brassard, that black leather that they wear on their right arm. Every Battalion have a Força Tática company, they act in that especific Battalion Area and then we have CHOQUE, they are the elite and act around the whole state. When local cops cant handle the situation CHOQUE is called, we have 6: 1° ROTA our most elite cops when the job is patrolling high risk areas, you should do a documentary with them, is like a whole other police unit, 2° Marechal Mascarenhas, their job is security in high populated events like soccer matches and they have the absolute best motorcycle pilots. 3° Humaita, they are the ones you can see with shields in riots, 4° Is COE and GATE, our Special forces and SWAT, most difficult ones the get in. 5° Is our k-9 units and we have our mounted police force with horses that is the 9° of July Regiment. Brazilian police have a lot of different police forces, just like you said, the Civil Police is our detectives and military police is the tip of the spear, we have a few more and inside each one of them we have lots of different elite units, força tatica and CHOQUE are some of them. Nice job with this video, you really should dive deeper, especially in ROTA.

I am a small town cop and seeing this video is very bewildering to me, it shows how blessed I am to be here than there. There bravery and courage are subpar and should be recognized.

Sou policial militar no Estado de São Paulo já faz 20 anos, cada dia é uma emoção.

Sou policial militar e gostei bastante do vídeo. Jornalismo puro e sem sensacionalismo. É isso que precisamos hoje!

They made a big deal here in this video, with the removal of police officers and criticism of a more professional stance that our local newspapers do not have, congratulations! Be here more often, we really need it.
