    Rio officials said that a security guard did brandish a weapon at American swimmers, but “there was no robbery” http://nyti.ms/2bmwVJs

        In the US, it is not normal practice for rent-a-cops to pull guns on unarmed, non-threatening people. But hey - Brazil

        You are a BLM supporter and find this behavior normal? I think it's abnormal. Its abnormality is why it's in the news

        if it was normal procedure, it wouldn't be news, and there would be no need to protest this behavior.

        @viaSimonRomero Could it be that Lochte was confused? The guy pointed a gun at him and demanded cash in Potugese.

        Probably. Not excusing his behavior, trying to explain it. The video jives with what he told Matt Lauer

        There's no excuse. Lochte's a grown man, 32, publicly urinating and destroying property. That's a poor representation of America.
