"During the day, the teams pulled out .40 pistols, which made it impossible to react more serious, "says the government of São Paulo in a note.
Of great destructive power, 12-gauge rifles are clbadified as "dangerous" by Colonel Adilson Paes de Souza. He challenges the relevance of the measure.
"This is a weapon with more luck than any State police is able to to use this weapon? ", He asked.
Of all the weapons I've known in the police, the 12th caliber is the one that has the most scared Paes de Souza states that "everything will depend on the technical and emotional preparation of the police", because, according to the colonel, accidents are frequent during the handling of the gauge 12.
For the professor of public management of the FGV- SP (Getalio Vargas Foundation of São Paulo), Rafael Alcadipani has interest in that he has more equipment, but to authorize the use of should be justified by a technical study.
"For some types of high-crime areas, yes, it makes sense to go for the 12th, but it seems to me that it's not an effective measure that justifies state-wide spending. there are not so many crimes, she adds [calibre 12] beyond [pistola] .40?

" The police use some calibres not to search for death, but to neutralize the thug as quickly as possible . , more adequate mbad, you break a leg or an arm, "he says.
About the use inside the state, he says that" in places, farms, isolated areas, the support is 20 or 30 kilometers, it takes time to get there, it takes [os policiais] to have the support weapon. according to the environment and circumstances. When you offer the shotgun, the policeman will have a wider range of resources. "
