People attend a mass held outside the public school where 12 children were killed by a gunman last week in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, Wednesday April 13, 2011. After Brazil's most lethal school shooting, Senate leaders decided Tuesday to rush a bill that would let the voters decide whether to forbid gun sales in South America's biggest country.
The video, obtained by Globo TV, first aired Tuesday night and posted on the station's website Wednesday, shows a close-up of the young man with his back against a wall in a video he apparently recorded himself. He's cleanshaven, in a white shirt, and speaks in a slow, flat voice that betrays nothing of the massacre he has planned.
"The fight for which many brothers in the past have died, and I will die, is not exclusively for what is known as bullying," he says in the video. "Our fight is against cruel, cowardly people who take advantage of the kindness, the innocence, the weakness of people who are incapable of defending themselves."
