This Rio alleged-robbery kerfluffle stinks of a contrived propaganda event.
Rio is looking for some reputation bolstering, as well as the guys who decided on Rio. Rio's tourism is suffering, the guys who decided that the Olympic athletes should play in crime-ridden toxic waste look like assholes, etc.
Suddenly a report of Rio's crappiness is proven to be a lie, casting all reports of Rio's crappiness, past and future, into doubt.
The entire story is played at max volume on all channels.
I mean isn't this just a little too goddamn convenient?
I'm saying that there was no robbery, there was no damaged door, there was no taxi, urine or vandalism and the video was faked. From beginning to end it is a fiction created for mass consumption to produce a specific effect.
