Picked the wrong U.S. tourists to mess with

With all the muggings you hear about in Brazil and places like these it is about time people start defending themselves.

I disagree,

That little piece of garbage will NEVER hurt anyone again. And his two friends may think twice before robbing an "elderly person" again.

I am 100% happy about what that man did!!!!!

Re: Picked the wrong U.S. tourists to mess with

Let's see... a couple of guys have a gun on 12 senior citizens, an ex-military strangles one of them, scares the crap out of the other one, and self-justice is never good?

What was he supposed to do? Sit down to a nice cappucino and ask him how he got involved in a life of crime? Good grief...

He did the right thing. His/their lives were in danger. He did what he had to do to protect his life. I applaud him.

Re: Picked the wrong U.S. tourists to mess with

Let's hear it for the authorities in SAN JOSE, Costa Rica!

The tourists left on their Carnival cruise ship after the incident and Hernandez said authorities do not plan to press any charges against them.

"They were in their right to defend themselves after being held up," he said.

Man works for me!

Too often senor citizens are preyed upon in this country and others. I think it's friggin' great that this clown got what was coming to him!

I'm a firm believer in 'what comes around goes around!'

One thug dispatched to the afterlife! No trial; no report to file. Case closed!

Yup works for me!

Swiss- if it were you, what would YOU do? If your life were in jeopardy, what would you do?
