https://unicornriot.ninja/2023/over-100-families-occupy-abandoned-apartment-complex-in-brazil/ NEW: In the Brazilian state of Paraná more than 100 families have taken over a set of abandoned buildings. Squatting the Residencial Golden Ville, located at 1850 Avenida Independência in Paiçandu, one of the Bolsonarist strongholds in the country, families are seeking to secure their #HousingRights as established in Article 6 of Brazil’s Constitution.

Overall I'm feeling that the #SpanishConstitution has far better writing than the #BrazilianConstitution.

I guess that having to make laws multilingual forces lawmakers to make things more clear and to not rely as heavily on word order and comma placement.

(see the mess that is the interpretation of that comman on the 2nd amendment, or article 12 of the Brazilian Constitution)

#TodayILearnt The framers of the #BrazilianConstitution not only remembered that #SpaceLaw exists but also made legislating it a sole power of the Union (i.e. National Congress).

@SapphicLawyer @usernameswift I think that popular juries were one of the biggest mistakes of the #BrazilianConstitution. Here, it basically became a get out of jail free card in my opinion.

We more than once had psychographed letters presented as evidence and the problem of society's sexism is so persistent that our supreme court was forced to ban the "legitmate defense of honour" (i.e. if the wife cheats it's okay to the husband to kill her in defense of his honour) as unconstitutional.
