To kick it off.

Anyone know what it feels like to be told you will be shot one by one?

One fortunate thing, besides you being OK is you’ll never be selected for jury duty ever again since this incident happened.... just tell the prosecutor “ he’s (she’s) guilty as charged” during the selection process..*smiles*...take care of yourself.We’re all glad your safe

Working retail, my wife was held up at gunpoint in Cerritos (perp got off with insanity plea) and at knifepoint in Costa Mesa perp not caught-druggie probably.

She devised her own “therapy” which was shooting at targets with pistols, and getting very good.

Goodness, Bunny!!
Thank you for sharing your ordeal with us Freepers.
Am right now praying that the Comforter will stay very close to you throughout this night and the coming days, so that you can receive an extra portion of His peace.

Never have been in your situation but I am assuming you were thanking God that you escaped a horrible situation. Glad you are ok.

Reaching out to talk to a shared-values community to help deal with the shock is a very natural and healthy thing.

Absolutely. Amen.

Quite an experience you had. Glad you’re ok. Also glad to hear that some sense came over the perp and he gave himself up before he took anymore lives.

Miss Bunny, I am visiting my mom in NC & I woke up & couldn’t get back to sleep so I went on FR.

This is so shocking. To know that someone I admire on here has just been thru this is horrifying. I can’t begin to imagine how terrifying your ordeal has been.

I wish I lived close by to come over. Sending ((hugs)),love and healing prayers.

I read about this right as it was happening...what a traumatic ordeal for you! Glad that a. you made it home safely & b. that you reached out so as not to be alone with your thoughts.

Did you ask the cops if they would make a pit stop for a bottle of wine when they gave you a ride home?...I would have...lol:) Prayers & blessings.

I know. Lying face down on the floor, gun to the back of my head, horrified that my bladder was letting loose while my life literally snap-shotted through my mind. God bless you, Bunny. So sorry you went through that.

No, let Bunny talk it out. It usually helps to share this trauma and receive assurances and comfort.

I bought two bottles of Pinot Grigio but they are still at Trader Joes.

I was surprised to hear that we were held for over 3 hours. I did not know it was that long.

Also surprised that there were about 40 people were held. There were only 7 of us at the front of the store. I thought it was just the 7 of us. People were hiding in the back aisles.
