So he left out the bit about destroying the restroom and pissing on the door. He really has shown himself to be vile and still over on deadspin people are defending him.

Actually i agree with that seizing passports was very wrong, stuff like that should never happen. I hate the Brazilian police and hate Ryan, but the police are under so much pressure to make sure the games are successful. Most Americans know not to say vile stuff like some where saying.

Yep, the guys were near the Olympic village so of course the Guards would have guns on them. I am just finding this all very ironic that Americans are complaining about guns being used. If this had happened in US with a Black Brazilian he would be dead.

The reaction from this story from some Americans has been a mess. The comments in last few posts about Brazil has been awful. Brazil does have a lot of problems, but calling it “3rd world shithole” and other things is just awful.

No the whole story is just confirming why the rest of world does not like the US.

They broke the law, filing a false report is illegal and they also trashed and destroyed a gas station. Also the US is rife with police corruption, we can not act like the US is better than Brazil.

There is plenty of proof, the security camera footage that was released showed his teammates with the belongings that were said were stolen. When Ryan he left the village the wallet he claimed was stolen was scanned out, the police have evidence for that.

Yeah lets not use the term hooker, also the area they visited is well known area where men go and solicit women. The Zika virus mainly affects women and was concentrated in areas outside of Rio, Ryan is not exactly smart and probably thinks he safe. There will always be groupies and athletes, but during the Olympics…

He was caught on camera with a similar wallet that he claimed that had been stolen and they lied about the time they got in. The only person at the moment who spoken about this story is Lochte and nothing adds up.

A lot of Americans are being pretty dismissive about this story and saying that Ryan did nothing wrong, but my friend who is in Brazil says that many think that Ryan was caught with a sex worker and then to cover it up he lied about being robbed. He has a girlfriend who is staying in another hotel.

I bet the girls who are competing have pushed as hard as they can. You are also you are ignoring that so many countries do not have the funding that US has for gymnastics, it not just hard work that matters but funding. The reason why the rule is there is because of the US, they were the ones that supported it.

US is the one that kept on insisting on 2 person per country rule, it was back when Russia and other countries were dominating in gymnastics. Now that US is doing better at gymnastics everyone is suddenly against the rule. It is stupid rule, but the US was one of the biggest supporters of it and did fight to keep it.

BBC has been a mess this Olympics, the problem is that they hire so many awful sports commentators and think they can get away with the sexism. In interview just a few hours ago “woke bae” Andy Murray shut them down. Andy was also one of the only male tennis player out there who spoke out about sexism and equal pay in…

After seeing the way Americans tore into Gabby and also Ashton Eaton for not patriotic enough i actually do understand how Trump has got this far. Also many on left are not even subtle in hiding their racism.

Whenever there is a black person that has been shot by the police so many rush to say we do not know the full story, rush to look up any dirt on person killed. If she pointed a gun at the police then that was very stupid, but the police compared to many other countries are far too militarized.

So let me get this straight when you worked in high and middle schools and you heard a racial slur you just ignored it and ignored the history. I am so glad you never worked at my school, this why is so many young white people think they can say it and downplay the racism in US.

And a few years ago Hillary also said the same thing. I don’t think anyone should vote Stein and i do not agree with what she said, but in US many politicians do criticise vaccines.
