That elephant is in a high hormonal state,

If you look at the side of its head it looks like it’s sweating, that’s natures red flag letting you know that this elephant is ready to Fuck, fight, and is liable to put your entire family tree on a T-shirt

I have been banned from /aww for saying stuff like this. People have no humor. They post a pic of a smiling pit bull and I would say “ it sees a child and is hungry…” The statistics on these dogs agree they are not a good breed. Have fun getting insurance if you own one. Edit: Ty for the Gold kind stranger!

Yeah, she was more cyborg than the Cyberdine series T-800. She's looking for Sarah Conner, you could see it in her eyes...and her rigid jawline. Think her gyros are off a bit though because she kept twisting from side to side. Needs to oil that shit.

To control a bad kid in public by Significant_Ship_107 in therewasanattempt

As someone who was beaten as a child, YES I HAVE WATCHED THIS AND STILL THINK THERE ARE NO KIDS WHO NEED TO BE BEATEN. Christ on a fucking crutch, he’s a CHILD. He needs loving and patient parents, a steady roof over his head, nutritious food, and a place to safely express his feelings. Keeping this kid in his current environment and then introducing more violence is only going to make him angrier and more self-loathing. All that violence teaches a child is that they are unlovable. That’s it. It doesn’t correct behavior in any meaningful way. It makes kids afraid and leaves them feeling that they are unworthy of love. And more than that, it solidifies the internal belief that they are a “bad kid”, so what incentive, other than fear of temporary pain, do they have to act any other way?

I took a screenshot and did a reverse image search and got a hit on old reddit post.

https://old.reddit.com/r/WTF/comments/do3qmu/deleted_by_user/f5kcv60/

Small edit: Here is that old reddit post cached in the wayback machine that shows the video (it clarifies that its the right one) : https://web.archive.org/web/20191029053335/https://www.reddit.com/r/WTF/comments/do3qmu/that_post_is_the_real_mvp/

"This was in Brazil. The victim told the police that the dudes on the motorcycle were hired to kill him. At the time, the police searched for the suspects, but didn’t arrest anyone. The case was still under investigation. The victim of the attempted murder was charged with unlawful possession of a firearm though."

There was a link to a news article in same thread but page goes 404 now.

Dug up the page from the wayback machine

Translation from Portuguese goes as follows (I goofed the copy and paste a couple times, sorry)

"Images from a security camera show an attempted murder that took place on Thursday afternoon (12) in Ibatiba, in the south of the state. Three women, a two-year-old child and a 53-year-old man, identified as Alair Bento Fonseca, were talking on the sidewalk in front of his house. One of the women is Alair's wife.

Suddenly a motorcycle approaches and, before it stops, the passenger jumps out of the vehicle and starts shooting. In the line of fire are the three women, but the target is Alair.

The man notices the movement of the passenger and pulls out the gun, shooting back. Despite the proximity, the criminal misses the shots. Most of the shots hit the post, which served as a shield and saved the lives of Alair and the women.

All this time, amidst the shooting, a child is on the ground. Despite this, no one was injured.

The victim told the police that friends warned him that the suspect would receive R$8,000 to kill him.

Initially, there was information that Alair Bento Fonseca was a police officer. However, by means of a note, the Civil Police informed that the information does not proceed.

Even Alair was booked in flagrante delicto for illegal possession of a weapon, paid bail and will respond freely.

See the note in full:

"The Civil Police informs that the case was forwarded to the duty station of the Regional Police Station of Venda Nova do Imigrante, where Alair Bento Fonseca, 53, was booked in flagrante delicto for illegal possession of a firearm, paid bail and will respond in freedom.

Alair is a victim of the attempted murder, and the crime is still under investigation at the Ibatiba Police Station (DP). So far, no suspects have been arrested. Additional information will not be passed on so as not to disturb the investigation of the fact."
