You would have thought a rockstar arrived with the giddy screaming that began when two motorcycles whipped by Casa Cultural around 11 am. Two young, strapping policeman strode in and the already animated renderas were incredibly excited. The whole "play it cool" factor was completely absent. This was their second visit, we missed their first appearance last week. I was skeptical since what I have witnessed thus far of the policia federal has left a sour taste in my mouth. A couple weeks back I saw an alarming beating of some innocent teenagers. The police´s presence is feared and they´re notorious for being unnecessarily rough with suspected offenders. These guys were an exception. They weren´t trying to be super macho men and actually seemed very interested in the cooperative and whats happening in the community. To the delight of all the renderas they promised to pass by more often to keep things in check around here.
Notice his walkie talkie in the renda bag.
