The guy's luck they cop didn't miss.
The theif is unlucky that a cop happened to be nearby. I'm guessing on his way to work.

Theif also got what he deserved. I imagine the owner was saying something like, "Well?! Was it worth it mother (expantive) ?!"

[mapuc]

I used google translate here's what it said in the article

Escarante Leonardo Santos, 35, was rushed to hospital after he Saturday afternoon tried to rob a motorcycle.

He drove also on a motorcycle with a friend when he with gun forced a driver of a Honda Hornet to stop in Sao Paulo, Brazil.

Santos, with sunglasses, jumped off comrade Honda Twister and pointed to the motorcycle driver with a .38 caliber revolver and demanded to take over the motorcycle.

A member of the military police appear to be random over the robbery when he was on his way home from work.

He shot at the robber, who was wounded in the leg and stomach - his condition is unknown.

Authorities establish that the military officer's behavior is correct, as 'robber pointing at him with the gun'.

In a press release states Civil Police, the 'action shows that he will protect society from violent criminals'

Haven't controlled every words, so it could be some misspelled or not gramma correctly written(Yoda-stil you know)

The owner after thanking the police man, pretty much insulted the robber and says that he (the robber) is now going to assault in hell and now he will die, that is never going to do that again. Rants about the robber being treated as "mr". ANd talks again that he worked hard to buy the moto and the robber is a lowlife that only assaults people, etc.

Man, I love that cop. If someone stopped me like that, however, it would have been a big mistake. As soon as the robber turned to pick up the bike I would have pulled my 9.

A robber in certain areas will think twice if he thinks his victim has even or overwhelming odds to win over him.

Something second Amendment repealists tend to ignore, the deterrence of violence that legal government vetted ownership entails.

I love how he is left in the street to bled out and they don't let the ambulance help him lol.

I sure hope and expect that he is someones bitch in prison now

Here's whats going to happen in Sweden or Denmark

1. Do always as the robber say to you-it is 99% chance that he will leave you without harming you
2. Take note(in you mind) if you can and tell as much as you can to the police
(when they are gone and if you can, write as much can down on a peace of a paper)

What happens next?

Maybe the police have time to come and start investigate the crime.

Here it can go two ways

1. They get the person who toke your motorcycle or
2. They can't find the person who did it.

But my stolen motorcycle, what about my dream?
You should be glad that you stil have your life

Now let pretend they get the person that stole your motorcycle, what is going to happen to him?

He will be sentenced to a 3-4 month visit in a 3-4 star hotel and with a very good chance to a trip to Turkey or Tunisia. Everything paid by us the ordinary citizens

It sound like a bad joke and I wish it was. but it ain't

So my guess was close. :O:

Thanks for the translation. :up: How about what the rider said as he was being jacked?

Basically along the lines of "it's ok, you can take it, I'm not going to raise trouble." He was in real danger there, the perpetrator would not hesitate to kill him if he wasn't fully cooperative.
I've never visited Brazil, but I get the distinct impression that L.E.O. behaviour is proportional to the cold hearted violence displayed by local criminals. Some areas in major cities seem to be true war zones. Possibly not unlike Ciudad Juarez.
A friend of mine spent 6 months there, and he told me he had to keep his cell phone out of sight all the time while out in the streets. If needed, he would have to go somewhere private like a toilet before flipping it out. The cell phone, that is.

Edit: I tried, but didn't find, a link to watch online "City of God". It's as realistic as can be, if you can find it.

[Rhodes]

Neal,:salute:! What Bruce said above! He also says that he is not armed and to the robber be calm, normal for anyone in a similar situation!
The brazilian police is a shoot first, ask questions latter if the person is still alive!
