It is very important that Brazil is worried for the security in their country. Hosting a large amount of people is not an easy task and that would make people talk a lot about the country. Is very important that people feel save during the event so all the comments made are of positive things about the country. Police should make a great job in order to remarkably improve the security of the country.
