Big Defeat for Gun Ban in Brazil

With more than 95 per cent of the votes counted on Sunday, 64 per cent of Brazilians were opposed to the ban, while 36 per cent backed it, said election officials, giving the 'no' position an insurmountable lead.

The proposal would have prohibited the sale of firearms and ammunition except for police, the military, some security guards, gun collectors and sports shooters. It would complement a 2003 disarmament law that sharply restricts who can legally purchase firearms and carry guns in the street. . . . .
