She thinks she can pet an alligator and she lived in a society that thinks it can shut down the economy for a flu bug and just shrug it off. When people are soft and stupid they lose track of reality.

Nothing in this hit piece(disparaging Mom&Pops that want to open) mentions anything about her doing the owners nails. The author simply implies that.
She worked for the home owner and was visiting and swilling wine. She was rushed and stupid.

Obviously drunk or tipsy

Blame the booze not the dead gator, he just saw food

Free Republic booze brigade can toast her booze fueled wisdom tonight as they get snockered

I grew up in gator country

We did not swim near them nor try to touch them

Though my cousin was part of a group that stole a huge bull gator from the Jackson Zoo and took it to a farm pond of one their families

To this day the then senior in high school senior ringleader is known as Alligator Brown

Heist gators and Vietnam ..or Woodstock...what a time

I was in 7th grade

They were legends to us

Summer 1969

“attempting to do the homeowner’s nails”

She was the dead dummies boss,shopowner. Attempting to do her nails, was the homeowner/Shop owner struggling resisting.
Author is a jerk.
Need to see if there is a comments section and hammer away

I didn’t read the article...Is the moral of the story..Don’t do nails at home or else you risk being attacked by alligators?
Also, i would assume that includes animals like bears,Elk in heat, big foot and rabid squirrels?

I believe the poster was referring to the fact that in many muni’s anyone that dies during this CV19 debacle is considered a CV19 fatality

Famous last words.

A few years ago a drunk college kid got into a fight with a campus cop. It did not end well.

The drunk college kid’s famous last words were ...

What, are you gonna shoot me?

I suppose if you follow the chain of causation, you are correct.

It happened here in my hometown. I FReeped about it. It was caught on the wanna be cop’s uniform cam.

To: null and void

an autopsy determined she drowned

That’s how gators and crocks kill their prey, grab them and hold them underwater.
