@larsmb Brazil has a 'Military Police' force, whose constitutional function, as established in article 144, §5, of the Federal Constitution, is to exercise ostensive policing and the preservation of public order. This model is a doomed inheritance from dictatorship period, and have been consistently used to repress minorities, and is responsible for a genocide of black communities for years.
