She stopped for a ‘child’ in the road. Then men in dark hoodies appeared.

Rural NC is getting dangerous. House across the street broken into in the middle of the day, fugitive murder suspect running through the neighborhood, murders, breakins, chaos. Oh, and drugs, lots and lots of drugs.

"The more things like this happen the less good Samaritan things will take place. People will keep on going. Everything pretty much out there is a scam."

A trend that's been going on my entire life.

In college in the early 70's I hitch-hiked all over the country. Never had a threat.

No one does that these days.

If you’re not famous, around here you don’t qualify for
CCW until your threat rises to
The level of the bullet leaving the barrel of
Your assailants gun. If you live, you might qualify.

We had a tragic prank in our town several years ago. These kids staged a “kidnapping” near a local coffee shop. A citizen “rescued” the “victim” by shooting the perps. IIRC at least one perp died. No charges against the citizen, but it didn’t make him feel any better.

The Carteret County Sheriff’s Office says that viewer information led them to the 10, 14, and 17 year olds.

Investigators say that one of the three told them that the whole ordeal was supposed to be a prank, and that they had hoped that a car would hit the dummy, thinking they had hit a real person and “freak out”.

"No description of the perps, except for “hoodies”but they mention “field and stream”, to “whiten it up”. PC in this case means “planned confusion”."

I'll be damned. I thought exactly the same thing.

We're catching on, eh?

Many many moons ago I worked for the Forest Service in California (during semester breaks in college). One of the guys was from Compton. He said it was common in Compton for the thugs to drag an old couch in to the middle of the road and if someone stopped to move the couch they would jump out and rob the person.

I guess they upgraded to dummy children.

Neither do I. And If they step out in front me, they are just run over asses. I don’t mind being a Good Samaritan. I just don’t want to be a dead Samaritan.

Sounds more like the kind of thing Mexican gangs have been pulling for years. Kidnapping for ransom is an industry down there. Obama ... the gift that keeps on giving.

Anybody out on the road nowadays “without a cellphone” is a criminal.

When driving, a waist pack that can be quickly accessed is a good carry option.
And/or an ankle holster.
