“…you reading this post may find it shocking to be reading this post. You may be wondering how someone has the courage to expose themselves that way. If you thought that way, reflect. The correct question is: how can one have the COURAGE OF DOING THIS WITH A HUMAN BEING ??? Even when monsters such as @marlon_gladiator will go unpunished in cases of violence like these in the square San Salvador, Laranjeiras, Rio de Janeiro. What right does this monster think he has to beat his girlfriend or anyone else? Is it because he has learned MMA and is a fighter who is in the right to solve everything in the beating? For these are not the teachings of the struggle. What argument or fact justifies this? None. Nothing justifies aggression. NOTHING WILL NEVER JUSTIFY MEXER WITH THE INTEGRITY, BE PHYSICAL, MENTAL OR MORAL OF ANY HUMAN BEING. That justice can be done. No #empanelman will pass us by! Share this post because this guy needs to be arrested”
