And where do the bad guys get all those guns to kill all those cops? They simply pop guards working for private security firms, a growth industry in Brazil. Bodyguard services cost between US$40 and US$100 per hour. Want to armor that limo? Armoring a vehicle here costs a minimum of US$30,000. A growing number of business execs in Sao Paulo eschew ground transportation altogether. They shell out US$800 an hour to commute to work by helicopter.
