Exuse my rudeness, but think your comments are utterly unappropriate. Brazil shares a border with almost every other country in South America, which makes it very in touch with the rest of the world. Think about this next time you comment on a page, you may be offendiung very important people, that may, one day controll your actions with ru;es of 'non racist remarks'. Think. Thank you.
