Leandro Lo confirmed brain dead after shooting.

[Pressure Project]

Perfect example why you should get away from confrontation unless forced on you.

Really sad ordeal. That cop should be strung up on a rope.

In Brazil, apparently the police there are considered more dangerous than the criminals sometimes.

Don't know... Brazil has been a pretty scary place recently from the videos posted online...

I'd be on edge every time I'd see two dudes riding together on a scooter or motorcycle.

The police that does patroling(and is therefore responsible for most of the violence) is the millitary police, with the millitary in Brazil having inherited a lot of the authoritarian tendencies of our time as a U.S-puppet millitary junta. Its pretty outrageous and sad to have so much destruction brought by the people who are supposed to protect us.

The guy who killed Lo is military police.

Yes but it's somewhat hard to get with a gun inside a club. There are metal detectors and stuff. Something about cops is that the clubs invite them for "protection". It's not unusual to let a bunch of off duty cops with guns inside.
I think the only thing we can take off it is to avoid fights, it doesn't matter if you're a world champion you should only fight if your life is in danger or you're willing to kill. If Lo had immobilized him and choked him out he would've been alive, but he thought he could get away with a small show of force and paid a heavy price for it.

Unsurprisingly, this has been heavily discussed in the Grappling sub-forum. Apparently, the cop was drunk and walked up to Lo's table. He took one of the bottles there and drank from it. He then got in Lo's face and basically challenged him to do something about it.

Lo used minimum force to take the cop down and immobilise him until he seemed to have calmed down. The cop walked away from the table, but then circled back on Lo's blind side and shot him in the head at close range.

It's obvious the cop, who apparently is a Purple in BJJ himself, was looking for an excuse to hurt someone. It's entirely possible that even if Lo had just tried to ignore him, he would have kept escalating until Lo was forced to defend himself. His ego could not deal with being effortlessly taken down by a far superior fighter, so he murdered Lo. A pathetic, cowardly little man who's own fate, I sincerely hope, will be both painful and humiliating.

Reading the article, this is why I tell everyone to walk away from anything even if you’re in the right. That off duty PO now has an attempted murder investigation on him while he’s on the run. He made threatening gestures towards Lo and he intervened and immobilized him and asked for the off duty PO to leave. Lo is brain dead now just horrible to see that over absolutely nothing. Hopefully his family can find peace and this soon to be former PO gets thrown in prison for a long time for his cowardly actions.

Same goes for getting angry on the highways... I love being in Texas, but damn... I swear Houston has some of rudest drivers in the US... And I've lived all over.

Couple times I had to pull myself back and tell myself it was idiotic for getting into with it with another driver. Just take a breath and let the fucktard go on his way.

He will be.... A Ex-cop in a Brazil prison won't last long.

They'll pause long enough to take this shithead out, then go back to murdering each other again.

I understand. In many countries they are underpaid and aren't held accountable

I’m from the Philippines and have many uncles in law enforcement. Underpaid and no accountability. They can make more money off bribes than their salary and they abuse the fact that they have guns.

 

[BIKES!]

100% this. Unless someone physically attacks you, you always play an odds game when you put your hands on some one. In situations like that (especially in 3rd world dumpsters) you definitely just leave and avoid any confrontation. Crazy people look for trouble and there are plenty out there with death wishes. I had a buddy almost wind up dead when his classic car was dinged by a duck head drunk outside and he went over to check it out, he got sucker punched from behind and hit the curb on the way down. Coma for 6 weeks.

RIP Lo. May that scum bag spend eternity in prison with those he wrongly put away.

 

[MoparOrNoCar]

I don't see where it says the guy is a cop in the article.

 

[shunyata]

Wow, didn't realize the suspect is not in custody.

Hope they catch the cunt

He's been arrested now.

 

[Protectandserve]

Guns and alcohol don't mix.

I've seen a few cops throw away their careers with that combo (luckily not killing anyone one else in the procession).

Super shitty, Lo was one of the greats and as others have said sounds like he was regarded as a genuinely good person too.

I hope you're right, but don't they have protective custody in Brazilian prisons for high risk prisoners like ex-cops?

I've been to bed and had a night's sleep since reading this news. I have so many thoughts, don't really know where to start. So rather than subjecting F12 to my stream of consciousness, I'll make this point and a single share.

BJJ Scout was for a while considered the best channel on BJJ technique, analysis, etc. No less it was maybe a fellow F12er, @TrumpetDan we have our suspicions. That channel has analysis and synthesis of just 10 fighters, and just 6 BJJ athletes. And the first one is of Lo. At mid blue I benefitted a LOT from those breakdowns. I never met Leandro but his game managed to affect my game. Anyway, just a share of that playlist. All the other thoughts and emotions are fucking raw. This shit is insane.

 

[JacJeanFinger]

Best to avoid trouble but once involved in a physical confrontation, you need to do enough damage so the guy won't think about immediate revenge.

Brazil is a mess. A totally broken, desolate country.

RIP.

 

[AristotleAmadopolis]

Active self protection on YouTube always have videos from Brazil showing robberies and murders and almost everyone has an off duty involved in some way. They joke about the off duty cops on there.

Good channel

 

[Staph infection]

Good channel

It is, he puts out a lot videos and keep them short and sweet.

None of that works that well when you're getting robbed by a dirty cop.

Best chance you have in the United States is taking it on the chin and filing a complaint the next day. Drop an armed cop, disarm him, and you can still just end up shot by his buddies.

I literally made my passing game from those videos back at blue belt. The knee slide with the head on the floor is my go to pass, also do a lot of active posting with both hands straight in to mount.

Rip. I never liked nightclubs, too many mental midgets going there.
