WOW!
Femicidio —the killing of women for being women— is treated here in USA as part & parcel of machismo that only applies to those guys south of the border. but machismo is just Spanish argot for patriarchy.
All across Latinoamérica, localities are passing laws to treat femicide as a hate crime and not a "crime of passion"; Puerto Rico included.
Brasil is going one step further: Lula just signed into law #UBI/ #SocialSecurity for children left orphaned by femicide
