That other country plays by corrupt rules is not so much the issue here as the fact that many of the people who have been discussing this thread are cheering for the corrupt individuals in that Socialist foreign hell-hole and have not the slightest interest in making sure the truth of the matter is known.
Why are Freepers repeating the false claims from the Corrupt Rio Police officers instead of pointing out the truth?
Because it doesn’t even matter
Other then bomb them back to the stone age, what can we do about it?
Its pointless, it does matter if the guard pulled a gun on them or not, it doesn’t matter if they destroyed the bathroom or not it doesn’t matter about the poster.
You play by their rules, you don’t agree to the rules, don’t go.
Maybe pulling posters down in America you can get away with it by cursing out the store owner and the store owner will just back down and cower in the corner because he doesn’t want to offend the youth. But that is here. Lochte could probably go into any American 7/11 and mess the place up and the store clerk wouldn’t even say anything.
He should have said what really happened and never filed a false police report. Those are no-nos. He made this worse by lying. If Lochte had character this would not even have been a problem.
I don’t even look at this as an America vs Brazil thing, I look at this as an individual(s) vs a foreign government.
