He also, according to even the agreed upon current story, was robbed. If you pee on something and someone demands you give them money at gunpoint as remuneration, you were robbed.
I don't know..they were security guards and Lochte did not want to wait for the cops...they were trying to split....we just don't know exactly how events unfolded....If somebody vandalizes your place and tries to leave and the guards hold the person by pointing a gun... that in itself is not robbery..seems pretty standard..... Lochte was by all accounts rather belligerent.. how events unfolded in as far as a need for payment is concerned I don't know.....
I just would much rather think of Americans abroad like those guys that helped stop the terrorist on the train in Europe last summer (?) than this Lochte clown.... but we've got both! (probably like every other country)
I just don't think he killed anyone or even really hurt anyone.. more like gave a black eye to our country.. helps perpetuates the "ugly american" idea... People in other countries don't need any more reasons to hate us....(mostly unjustified in my view)
