[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think what happened is that they were drunk, acting stupid, kicked in the bathroom door and then as they were leaving they were confronted at gunpoint by the two security officers who shook them down to pay for the damage they did to the bathroom so they gave them their money and left.

So in essence, they acted like jackasses, but[b] the security officers didn't have a right to pull guns on them and force them to hand over money either.[/b][/quote]

I think that's what happened as well.  I think the blame needs to go to the criminals vandalizing private property though.  No excuse for their actions.[/quote]

Here is the thing, though.  While it may be technically true security didn't have "the right" to draw weapons, the swimmers were not in Rockville.  They were in Rio, a place where any cash business operating at night has armed security.  All Brazilians know this.

If they indeed kicked in the bathroom door, the security guys would likely taken it as a personal insult, a slap in the face.  It's sort of like walking in front of a police car in, say, Rockville and taking a piss in front of the cops.  It won't end well for the pisser.  [/quote]
