I like how one of them kicks the bastard while he's downé
Always beware of 2 people on a motorcycle
Agreed, but she woulda needed a mirror to see them coming, and been looking.
She knew what was happening the moment she did see them though and did an amazing job latching on.
Pfft I'm wary of one person in a motorcycle and I don't even live in Argentina anymore. Scarred for life.
Personally, I'm just wary of one or more people.
I'm from Colombia (all Latam countries share a lot of culture and daily life style) and images like this are somewhat common. Here this thieve would be set free in 48 hours at max, so people take justice all by themselves, as the judicial system won't do shit.
This is jokingly called "paloterapia", or "kick therapy".
Same in Brazil
"whatever happened to catching a good old fashioned passionate ass whoopin and getting your shoes coat and your hat tooken?"
It's not often violence warms my heart. Seeing people pull over so they could kick this piece of shit makes me feel like people aren't all that bad.
Love the detail of how the driver of one of the car that stops, comes over and after seemingly hearing what's going on starts kicking the thief.
That guy's a violent asshole who should go to jail too. We have courts for a reason.
I read another story where some lady accused a guy of kidnapping his own son. Bystanders grabbed him (which makes sense), but then another asshole broke his ribs, kicking him like this.
humans love a reason to beat somebody up. quite scary
Tell me the world doesn't need vigilantes, do it.
One day maybe, but right now we just need real consequences for these types of crimes. It was premeditated, not accidental by any means. Just drains of society preying on perceivably weaker people.
Can I argue that increasing punishment generally doesn't decrease crime long term, only short term. The change we need is to address the root cause not to increase the size of the stick.
Sure, I agree to that. But right now, people that prey on weaker people need consequences, not slaps on their wrists and a promise they won't do it again. You can't "accidentally" rape someone. Lock em up
Stealing from someone in public is quite a different crime from rape. If people are stealing, remove their need or desire to steal rather than locking them up and putting them in a position where everyone they know is a criminal. It's a cycle that's hard to break and we should be more careful about who we thoughtlessly throw in jail.
Vigilantism is a common response to the failure of the justice system. When people feel like the justice system will serve them, and policing will protect them, they're more inclined to let justice be served.
Thought she was about to put him into a kneebar or bust out some other Jiu Jitsu for a second there.
Fuck yes! What a POS
I don't understand phone snatchers?
Correct me if I'm wrong, but all modern phones now can be bricked with the 'find my phone' service?
Besides that, unless you get lucky with the pin / pattern, you can't factory reset or unlock the boot loader, so what does any of it matter?
“Parts only” you can find them all over eBay.
this is what actual anarchy looks like
Everyday people coming to the aide of a fellow human who is fighting to stop herself being victimized is anarchy? Yeah, pretty much. Doesn't seem like a bad thing, though. If we all took that level of responsibility, you wouldn't need much of a governmental force.
I think everything you just said with many words, is what he said with few words. You're both in agreement.
Possibly.
On tiktok, people blames the victim for not paying attention
TikTok is a cesspool. Even the dumbest person on earth can figure out TikTok, and it seems like they've all done it
Individualist society go brrrr
I guess that's their way of saying "if you see an American tiktoker struggling, don't ever try to help!"
As is tradition.
stomp that mf out til he has a fucking epiphany
She should've taken out a piece of his calf with a bite to teach him a lesson
My wife got pickpocketed in Rome on the train. Possibly a woman who didn't get on the train behind her. We traced the phone to an atm where it was shut off, but not there. They bought something for 1k at the train station and were probably trying the atm next. She had no phone and kept using mine since I put her account temporarily on my phone. To top it all off Verizon couldn't activate an esim so I had to wait and go into a store to get a physical Sim where the person working didn't know I can order a Sim for free online and pick it up. I usually get used phones and it was a pixel 7 pro.
Now trending on Kickstarter: That guy
Crowdsourced violence™️
Compare - if you will - the effort and danger of the women herself, hanging onto the offender on a moving motorbike, falling multiple times, being dragged underneath his feet, not letting go, to the big man in the white t-shirt arriving late and kicking the offender as he's pinned down.
I love how many people rushed over to help her. Good citizens looking out.
Nice, good for her. Hope bro got his ass whooped.
