Then the question becomes how are they going to get a police force that gets paid sporadically, at best, and has flat out stated they will not be responsible for Olympic security until everyone has been paid their full salaries to do more than stand around and do nothing? The last I had read was that Brazil was going to use private companies and the military. So,what happened to the military?

Totally agree, CNM, this Olympics is a tragedy in the making. It might make Munich look like a broken toe on a gymnast. Here's praying we are both wrong.
