Just came across a video clip showing open acts of theft and robbery at the Olympic host country.It is really very sad that such acts of theft happening in Rio with the Olympic games still in action.With more than 10000 participants from all around the world and thousands coming to cheer for their country,it is really a shameful thing by any means.The most shocking is the indifferent attitude of the Rio government that seems to be least bothered regarding these unwanted acts causing fear and panic in the minds of the visitors.

While you and I see the greatest athletes, criminals see opportunities. Unfortunately, part of this life we live.

It is a shame that the Summer Olympic Games have become a showcase of criminal activity ruining the fun for the fans of the sporting events.

Yes I to agree with you, but every nation has their own rule and system, according to rio the currently its hosting Olympic games and as many people's come from outside the country its not possible to make that much Tight security and who know it might be the other country fellow who is doing all this..
