It could be a lot more than 100. There are a lot of Brazilians who aren’t in the US legally, and some of them may try to attend matches. Because of the danger ICE poses, that might be a really dumb decision. But, I think some of them might take a risk because seeing Brazil play is too important to miss. If they go after these guys, they’ll probably also grab a lot of people who are in the US on holiday visas and have done nothing wrong.
As for “not quiet and submissive”, I was trying to find a good way to phrase that. There seems to be something in Brazilian culture that leads to them being really loud and outgoing. If you’re having a party, it’s a great way to get things started. A bunch of Brazilians at a party and it’ll be a loud, exciting party. But, when dealing with the cops, sometimes it’s best to be quiet and not draw any attention. That’s where the typical Brazilian personality is a drawback. Take a dark-skinned Brazilian and have him grow up in Finland, and it’s a different story. Being quiet and not drawing attention to himself will then be a natural personality trait. Maybe not so good at a party (until there’s enough alcohol involved) but great for not drawing attention from authorities.
This is all a generalization, of course. Individual people will be different. But, there’s enough of that kind of Brazilian personality that I think they’re generally in more danger than other groups.
