"I hope he will learn something from this and maybe think twice before he ever does it again," said Rainboth, who is now considering buying an alarm system.

Errrr. Try again.

So now the perp knows she is unarmed?

Brilliant job Jane.

[mylife]

This idiot is lucky she was not shot by the cops.

Aerosmith’s “Janie’s got a toy gun” doesn’t have the same bite.

[Billthedrill]

Ummmm...Jane. Now, let's reason through this, shall we? The bad man ran from a gun. If you want the next bad man to run from you, wouldn't it be better to actually, well, I don't know, um, actually HAVE A GUN?!??

Just sayin'.

[mylife]

No it does not, but I think that was Jamie.

[mylife]

Oh it was Janie.
LOL

[ConservativeStatement]

Jamie was crying according to Van Halen.

Janie's got a gun according to Aerosmith.

Ted Nugent just says “Kiss My Glock.”

Yes, but next tiem hte perp breaks into her home she ios goign to really surprise the snot out of him by chewing a pop tart into the shape of a gun- He’ll mostl ikely give up crime after that

[mylife]

You are correct of course.

[Bronzy]

Ah, yes I think actually HAVING A GUN better. Now, I see government issuing us toy guns for protection./s

[mylife]

Hopefully the 17 year old hasn't eaten all the pop tarts. ☺

"They said, 'Put the gun down, put the gun down!' " Rainboth recounted. She explained it was only a toy.

"Bang Bang" replied the cops as she waved it around.

I sense that the Toy Gun Theory will now be adopted as proper defense in a new instructional video from the Department of Homeland Security.

[Conserev1]

Not a good move in reality She just lucky perp didn’t have one!

[gunsequalfreedom]

These toy guns should be banned. Think of the trauma she put the robber through and also his humiliation now knowing it was a toy gun. He should file suit against her!!!

[Altariel]

No, Jane dear.

He ran because he thought you had The Real McCoy.

You have alerted the entire world that you do not have a functional gun.

The wolf ran from what he thought was a sheepdog.

When he learns you are unarmed, he will no longer hear the growl of a sheepdog, but the bleating of a lamb.

Arm yourself this time.

You never know when that wolf—or another one-—will return.

And when seconds count, the police are minutes away.

Don’t let this be you, next time-—and assume there *will* be a next time:

It is worse than that.
Now ALL the wolves know she is unarmed.
