Who ARE you, BTW?
65 years ago, I went with my sister to a Saturday matinee. Some guy tried to fondle my sister. When my dad came to pick us up, we told my dad and pointed out the guy. My father proceeded to beat the crap out of him. The theater manager stopped the fight and called the cops. When the cops got there they put cuffs on my dad. When my sister and I told the cops the story, they took the cuffs off my dad, and the cops began to beat the crap out of the guy. Eventually they took him away.
That was in Hampton Virginia.
He deserves the key to the city.
Thing is he waited too long so it turned into premeditated. Should have gone in and confronted the perv right then and there and he’d never have been sent to prison.
Nobody really. That wasn’t my point. My point was that he was going to tell the police that he had no idea who I was. (He probably left out the part about grabbing my wife, but there were witnesses and it was in Texas in 1982. Case closed.)
I’m actually going to completely agree with you here. It is not a crime of passion if it was no longer immediate or in progress. Although I think he should have the right to retribution for something like this, he doesn’t and should have let the authorities take over and handle it.
Hubby would take the boys to the state prison for haircuts. Yeah, I know but they got a kick out of going and maybe a lesson learned. They’d come home with wonky cuts that I’d laugh at and fix. Never felt compelled to have a shoot out. It’s just hair. Hair will grow back.
I am not sure who these Jurors were but guarantee, if I had been this would not be the outcome.
Yikes, wrong thread. Was distracted coming back from pulling Christmas goodies out of the oven, yum.
Not for my circumstances you try to intentionally enter a stall with my wife or daughters in it, I’d beat the crap out of the pervert as well.
His mental illness does not necessitate that I go along with his delusions.
When society fails to protect the citizens, and even encourages the criminals, well, citizens are going to handle it themselves. Sometimes they’re going to go too far, but that’s society’s fault for leaving it to the amateurs.
Fine him $10, he can mail it in.
“Was there one unisex bathroom.”
QTs have separate bathrooms.
Mea Culpa. I was too hasty. I did ask for my post to be struck since I realized it was in error.
Yes. My morning brain was skipping today. I realized I had erred and asked the post to be sent to the dark hole of bad posts.
Dumb move, paid for it.
At least this wasn’t a shooting & he wasn’t a gun-toting NRA member.
Situations brought to sane Americans by liberal di##s who pass laws to protect this kind of behavior. They are rattling the cage
Because young girls never exaggerate or over-dramatize.
Correct...he should have punched the guy, called the police and claimed the idiot attacked him and he wanted the idiot arrested.
And 65-years ago.
