Just now. My brother and a friend were having a conversation. The front gate was oppened a bit. Two guys, one with a fucking gun, approached them and made them as hostage, while they searched for anything of value on the house. Me and my mother were sleeping on an annex of the house, so we didn't see anything. They simply got mine, my brother and my friend's wallets, some money, the key to the gate and the key of my friend's car.

My documents weren't really that important (my credit card was personalized with the photo of my family, so they leave it behind), blocked the most important and asked for replacements.

But it's so revolting. They still have the nerve of calling us hobos and shit. Man, if I could, I would kill these fucking guys with no remorse. I cant though... Well, at least I'm still alive.

Sorry for venting here instead of livejournal or something. I'm just really pissed off.
 
Secure the gate to your house, that way the key they possess is meaningless. The car was a poor thing to target, especially since they're flagged on pretty much every highway you drive across in this entire country. Cancel the cards, lock everything of value up and sleep with one eye open.
 
That fucking blows ass but at least you guys are alright. Glad to hear you guys are unhurt.
 
Yup, you're going to have to secure everything as they have keys now. They might return when they feel it's okay to do so. However, I hope you guys can give an accurate description to the police and point them toward anything they touched for processing.

Saying that, it's good to hear you guys weren't hurt.
 
Yep, it sucks. Got to be more 'smart' and not let this happen again, I would install alarms system or something. Good nobody got hurt, good luck op

And obviously, change the locks.

What a weird thing to post...

OP sorry about all this. At least you are all safe and sound. I am a little worried about the fact that they have a key to your gate and a car key though...stay safe.
 
A gun was involved? Just be happy no one was hurt. I'm sorry, couldn't imagine being in that situation.

What hellhole of a country are you living in?

Edit: Oh Brazil, of course.
 
I'm glad you are OK and I hope you called the police, but get your keys changed ASAP. They easily could steal your car or break into your home if they have the keys to your gate.

So only outlaws have guns?
 
What the hell does "hobo" mean in Brazil? Because here in the US, a hobo is a homeless person who rides trains and carries a bindle.

Basically. And the Police/Military. Brazil isn't a country with a gun culture, like US.

Moving would be wise, but it's impossible right now. I live with my family, and I doubt they would want to move out (specially my father). At all. And the neighborhood isn't really dangerous, it's just that at this time of the year, it's dangerous pretty much everywhere.

But I'm working on that. I'm saving some money and next year I'll have a better job, so I'll probably live on a safer place.

I want to invest on a security camera. And my friend's android got robbed, but he didn't have any application for localization instaled, and his 3G was off, so we couldn't locate it. If we could, we would have got our things back again at this time... sigh.

The word in Brazil is "vagabundo", but I don't know if it does have the same connotation as hobo. I think a better word is "lazy ass".

Why would they start shooting? Most robbers arent looking to kill people.

In Brazil, the number of robbery with deaths is getting pretty high. Specially on my city/estate. It's the 6th most dangerous state of Brazil right now.

Which is why pulling a gun of your own usually results in the bad guys running away. No one gets hurt and you get to keep your stuff. And if caught, they still go to jail.

You'd rather start a firefight than let them take your shit? Because that's what pulling a gun on someone who has a gun can cause.

Good. Getting a gun is a stupid thing to do anyway. It could put you in more danger if they have one and are willing to fire it.

I'm just saying that all respect for a persons life is lost when they enter your property with a gun on your family member.

So you'd rather risk your family member's life by pulling out a gun? Just let them take your shit and call the cops. You aren't an action hero, all that confronting them will do is scare them and force them to start firing, which is the worst thing that can happen.
 
should try not keeping cash on hand but it sucks you got robbed hope they end up robbing the wrong people and get dealt with

Robbers have executed unarmed families before.

Your avy should be the image of this thread.


But seriously OP, thank goodness you guys are okay.
There are some crazy people in this world.

A year ago there was a shooting here in Oregon at the Clackamas mall right down the street from my house and a man killed two people. It was nationwide news.
The dude showed no signs of schizophrenia previously. He just snapped and decided he wanted to kill some people that day.

Glad you're okay brother
