If only there were some sort of ‘equalizer’ a person could carry on their person to thwart such attacks...

Thoughts and prayers for the trauma Lenzi and Pedro suffered during this awful event.

If only progressives would liberate more people from God, truth, morality, their own property, gender, free markets, and other such evils none of this would happen! (sarc)

If you want a pet the size of a cat, get a cat. You don’t have to take them for walks in the dark.

Don’t like cats? Get a rabbit.

Hi, I’m waiving in your face an incredibly attractive piece of electronic jewelry, it’s dark outside, I’m alone, tied up with my faux child who I can’t leave, and wearing “come snatch my phone or purse” shoes.

It’s my right not to be offended, supported by my willingness to pick up my dog’s steaming feces, and my vote for progressivism.

It would take an insane, blind robber to have the steely nerve and fortitude to go up against her Pharmaceutical Executive bearing.

Hark! Her staff is softly cheering in the dark.

Attackers have stolen not only cellphones and money, but also a sense of security.

It's outrageous that the anointed ones have to be exposed to the little people's type of environment.

Maybe a federal program can be created to transport free of charge criminals overnight to and from areas away from D.C.

Oh.. and the new program would have to include a guarantee of minimum take with taxpayers making up the difference.

That sounds like the Establishment's solution.

Her poodle, Lenzi, and Chihuahua mix, Pedro, get walks only during daylight hours.

Oh noes. Now she won't be able to leave dog feces for her neighbors under the cover of darkness.

BUT she's totally safe. DC STILL has some of the most restrictive anti-gun laws anywhere (maybe NYC and Chicago are worse, maybe)and everyone knows keeping law abiding citizens form carrying firearms for self defense makes them safer. The liberal logic - the more helpless you are the safer you are. Makes sense doesn't it (if you voted for 0bama). If your IQ is over room temperature gun control seems pretty stupid.

0bama should be bursting his buttons with pride over the fact that he and his political and media allies have championed the criminal element to such an extent that the cops are reluctant to even arrest criminals any more.

She should be walking at least one Great Dane and an American Staffordshire Terrier.

I am having a hard time finding any sympathy for these folks who vote for or support the politicians who have foisted this socialistic disaster upon the rest of us.

Their ideological spawn has come back upon them.

Perhaps they will unlearn all that they think they have learned. Just...the hard way.

Libtards.

It sounds like crime is way out of control on Capitol Hill and the criminals have taken over.

Robberies, armed stickups, phone thefts, and muggings are up and occurring out on the streets, too.

She is just one of those people, far too common in my DC metro area, who have let their beliefs about communities and the goodness of man over-ride reality and awareness. She moved into a place with high crime rates and expects everyone around her to subscribe to her ideas of kindness and fair play.

People don’t deserve to get robbed, but she was low-hanging fruit for the felons she refused to recognize.

A man grabbed Pitluck’s phone out of her hand and scratched her chest and neck. Police have not made an arrest in the case.

But she's still for 'gun control', wouldn't even touch an 'icky gun' if you paid her to do it, and votes for demonicrats. Every single one of them.

Count on it.
