The only parts I could hear/understand were:
"Yo no debo nada," which means "I don't owe anything," and something about "dos cervezas que no pague" -- "two beers I didn't pay for."

Yea....I like social justice. He tried to steal someone's stereo and then argue whether it was his car or not. Ass kicking deserved, thank you.

"Crazy Joe" may be crazy.....but it doesn't look like he's a squemish dumbass either. Go Joe!

I'll ask my wife, who is a native Mexican.

She says he declares that he stopped at Don Pedro's cantina and only had two beers. He repeats this several times. The police begin giving him instructions in Spanish, he curses at them (in English), the police translator asks him if he speaks English (he says no), the police continue telling him to stand up, be quiet, pay attention to me, and that they are arresting him (presumably for b&e and attempted theft). He swears some more then is taken into custody.

That's the best she can make out of the bad audio.

Does this help at all?

Speaking of Mexican'ts.

Thanks for the translation Brian.
And it proves what Spode says - scum is scum regardless of colour.

When I thought that your friend had hit him with some kind of weapon I did think it was an over-reaction. However I'm all for approprite response, and given that he was punched, I'd say that it serves him bloody well right. Hope he got a cracking headache out of it.

According to the video, truer words were never spoken.

SG - thank my wife, Mary. I only know about 30 words in Spanish.

Rexmons 09-15-2008 09:23 AM

Brian please give Mary my thanks as well. Unfortunately, because the level of drug and alcohol abuse is so high here, these types of crimes are abundant. But to quote Bob Dylan - "In Paterson that's just the way things go."

Once Upon a time in Mexico, good movie.

Poor fella's lucky he didn't get a .357 in the chest.

Clodfobble 09-15-2008 08:12 PM

Rexmons' friend is lucky too. Back in high school, a classmate caught a guy breaking into his car, and the guy turned and stabbed him in the stomach as soon as he approached. Kid later died.
