  • Rio unappeal to do something big just because a few parts in the city are poor? That was rude and totally out of mind. Sorry, but the black man in this video is dumb.

  • KaliberKing - Friend, read more, ask more, or where tir this information? 800 kidnappings a day? I believe that everyone has equal rights. Know lose to one day be able to win. Brazil is the world's future and soon the U.S. will be the last. Polluting, destroying, warring world and subjecting their wills, I believe that this day had come. Change your future not your past Destroy. Peace to all!

  • You are correct! I live in Chicago, and there were many, many, happy people in the city on that day! Chicago is FLAT BROKE, and we could not afford the eventual bill that would come due with these games.

  • Where did you get these data?

  • Pacassa: Where are you from? Americans don't believe they are the owners of the world. However, we are certainly tired of the world trying to come here illegally and changing the very essence of this country by forcing their world view upon us. America has contributed more to this world for its betterment than any other country in the world. If you think there is another country who has, present that country and the case for it.

  • @KaliberKing And besides that we have Olympic Games... Chicago don't...

    What a fail, uh?

  • all the americans, this is a prove that european don´t like your politician about the world YOU ARE NOT THE OWNER´S OF THE WORLD!

  • RIO 2020 AGAIN!

  • you say chicago has a high crime rate, but 30 murders, 50 kidnappings , 800 sexual offences occur every week in rio da janeiro

  • I see there is not enough support on having the games in Chitown anyways. Plus, it's one of the cities that have one of the most high crime rates. Ask somebody who either lives or knows about the area. They don't care if Olympics come to that city. It will cause Chicagoans a lot of dough. So, why bother anyways.
