Human rights by far are the most misunderstood rights humans have. These are the most basic rights. We have to defend them at all costs for everyone, because in that is its only argument, the basic right any human should have. People tend to forget that.
So when in Brazil hundreds of inmates start rebellions (which the government in the first place "allowed", by letting them use cell-phone within prison walls to say the least), and they start to do ugly things people just want them shot down...
First of all, to let these rebellions happen was a very stupid thing and it seems, completely avoidable. I mean the state has power to control the inmates very well, but it doesn't do so due to lack of control, of planning, of sheer stupidity, or just members of the government don't care as they are too busy stealing money for themselves.
Now just because one thing is wrong (our loss of the right of security, and to go where we please), when these rebellions happen doesn't mean we can commit another wrongdoing (taking out their human rights). One wrong doesn't justify another! When a government enters into a war situation within its borders or there is political anarchy, one of the first things that risks being lost is the very human rights people so easily tend to forget, exactly for these same people. Which is why society must be very firm and united in relation to its rulers about human rights. That it is an outrageous atrocity to not abide by them.
Second, things should never have been allowed to get this far. People should have access to education! I think this is the main issue. Governments want stupid masses so they can do with them as they wish, but this is the side-effect: unemployment, and mass criminal ratings. So deal with it! Nobody ever wants to start a change in this trend. It would be something for so long in the future it doesn't have any electoral value. I've already stated before the elected people govern to be elected again!!!! Who would want to spend money on something that would take at least 30 years to give fruit and perhaps to a politician who will be on the spot 30 years from now. Nobody wants that, besides the already stated fact that educated masses are much harder to control. So deal with it!
What to do with so many unemployed and so many people in jail right now? That's an unanswearable question... We have to make do with what we have. But it would be imperative to revert the trend, otherwise instead of looking at a distant future with maybe a little light at the end of the tunnel things could get even worse.
