that really sucks. She was just out for a jog and now her kids are motherless.
Wow, we need to defund the police or something. Paging Kamala, when you are done making word salad, this guy might need some of that bail money of yours.
So damn easy and a matter of life or death.
PAY ATTENTION, LADY FREEPERS!
A dog that was PART PIT BULL was loose in the neighborhood and approached me during my walk. My finger was itchin' to pull that trigger but the dog turned out to NOT be aggressive.
SO DAMN EASY.
This horrible event really hits home. We were out to dinner with our newly married son and his wife. I had just read MINDHUNTER (a must read for all women) by John Douglas,FBI profiler and started discussing the book. One of the tips that was given was (if you are attacked in a public area, fight, scream, do whatever you have to do and be PREPARED TO DIE WHERE YOU ARE, you will have a better chance of survival,because if you are taken you will suffer beyond anything imaginable.
Just a week later our DIL was carjacked at a Home Depot parking lot about noon. She was putting garden pots in her trunk and was driving a convertible. As she shut the trunk a black man came up behind her and offered to take her cart which he did. She thanked him thinking he worked at the store. As soon as she got in the car, he jumped in and told her to “DRIVE”. She was in absolute shock unable to move and he screamed it again. So she backed out and directed the car to the front of the store, deciding she would ram the store if she had to but she was not going to be taken. As she got closer she said she “screamed for help,”. A worker said he barely heard her but knew she was in trouble. He ran to the car opened the driver side and pulled her out and she ran. The perp jumped to the driver side, there was a struggle and then he pulled a gun on the worker who ran. The guy peeled out of the parking lot took off to the freeway. Several miles later he wrecked the car, jumped out and hid in the weeds. Helicopters and cops were everywhere around the car. Then he ran to a running cop car and took it, wrecking it several miles later, he was injured and arrested.
We have no doubt that had she left with him she would have been injured or killed. The way she reacted when it was happening, was because of our discussion at dinner several days earlier which is a miracle. Seriously, the book possibly saved her life. Another tip in the book is NEVER park next to a white van without windows or if you return to your car and there is a white van next to your car, DO NOT GO TO YOUR CAR, return to the store. I follow this advice every day since.
Yes. Poor kids.
May God watch over them.
And may Eliza Fletcher rest in peace with God.
