(<em>Photo: Bolsonaro\/Instagram<\/em>)<\/p><\/div>\n<p>President Jair Bolsonaro signed a decree on Jan. 15, 2019, making it easier for many Brazilians to own firearms. Bolsonaro signed the decree in a televised ceremony.\u00a0 By taking decisive action within 15 days of being sworn into office, Bolsonaro gives a strong indication that he intends to follow through on his campaign promise of combatting Brazil\u2019s violence problem by putting guns in the hands of the \u201cgood guys.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cTo guarantee the legitimate right of defense, as president I am using this weapon,\u201d Bolsonaro said as he held up the pen he used to sign the decree. \u201cI signed this decree, created by many upstanding people, so that at this first moment, upstanding citizens can have peace inside their homes,\u201d Bolsonaro explained.<\/p>\n<p>The <a href=\"https:\/\/media.folha.uol.com.br\/cotidiano\/2019\/01\/15\/decreto-desarmamento.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"clickTracking\" campaign=\"brazilian-president-peace-homes\" title=\"Brazilian President Green Lights Gun Ownership So Citizens May \u2018Have Peace Inside Their Homes\u2019\">decree<\/a> eliminates the need for private citizens to provide the police with a good reason before they can own a firearm.\u00a0 Almost any citizen can now own a gun as long as they meet certain conditions.\u00a0 The conditions include being responsible for a commercial or industrial establishment, being a gun collector or hunter, living in a rural area, or living in a city with elevated crime rates.\u00a0 The decree does not allow people to carry a firearm in public, something that only security personnel, police and members of the military are allowed to do.<\/p>\n<p>The decree includes a provision extending the registration renewal period from five years to ten, and requires that gun owners have a safe with a key if children, adolescents or a person with a mental disability live in the home.<\/p>\n<h2>SEE ALSO:\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.gunsamerica.com\/proper-way-to-use-cover\/\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"clickTracking\" campaign=\"brazilian-president-peace-homes\" title=\"Brazilian President Green Lights Gun Ownership So Citizens May \u2018Have Peace Inside Their Homes\u2019\">Proper Way to Use Cover<\/a><\/h2>\n<p>In addition, gun owners will have to meet other requirements such as being at least 25 years of age, not having a criminal record, taking a psychological exam, and taking a course at a gun club.<\/p>\n<p>Brazil has been widely known as one of the murder capitals of the world.

Compare that with the United States, where there were only 5.3 homicides per 100,000 people in 2017.<\/p>\n<p>Some have criticized Bolsonaro\u2019s decree. They argue that increasing gun ownership will increase the amount of violent crime in Brazil.
