Monique Bastos uses Jiu-Jitsu to Detain a Thief
Monique Bastos is a mixed martial arts fighter who dished out a serious beat-down on a whining thief who thought he'd get off easy by targeting a 115 pound woman...
Monique was on her way to a jiu-jitsu class in Acailandia when a robber tried to steal her phone but once she knew they were not armed, she made him scream for mercy.
Well done!

Although the NRA supported this law in 1998 when it was passed, concern over potential abuse, the ability to apply the law to those who use a firearm in self-defense, Marion Hammer has been quoted as saying, "We never would have supported a bill that would allow prosecutors to prosecute someone acting in self-defense."
