She agreed to work when other pizza deliverers quit after shooting. She got shot

Brooklyn Rouse had been delivering pizzas for Papa John’s for exactly two weeks when she was shot in the head on the day after Christmas.

Monday evening, 21-year-old Rouse was on her way to Macon’s Bloomfield neighborhood with two pizzas. Just five days before, her 23-year-old co-worker, Duncan Siror, had been shot in the shoulder while delivering a pizza to an address just a mile and a half north of where she was headed.

These places develop into “food deserts.” Supermarkets/grocery stores close, fast food franchises won’t come, pizza delivery is stopped. Forget Walmart, Target, Costco, etc. The thugs take the bus to the malls to tear them up. Societal collapse on a macro scale, and it’s been occurring for decades. Thanks, FDR, LBJ, Carter, Clinton, Obama...and yes, the RINOs.

Back in the late 90’s I worked in a behavioral health residential home in South Phoenix. One night I went to order a pizza from Domino’s and had to pick it up myself. The restaurant was locked down like Fort Knox with bullet proof glass. They told me that neighborhood was a no go zone after dark. I delivered pizza for Domino’s a decade earlier in a smaller town in WA and fortunately never felt unsafe. None of my co workers ever got robbed.

How do you react to this. Every bit as tragic as Trayvon but all we hear is crickets from every loud voice when it fits the narrative. Hey Obama, this could be your third daughter!

Lord let her be ok and I wish I had the power to help.

She has a wonderful smile, she probably won’t now.

“I live in the ‘hood here in Memphis. No pizza company will deliver to my house anymore.”

You might want to take that as a subtle sign that you should MOVE.

2 hours after they make that announcement they would be sued out of existence.

No political points when a black kills a black, so the media overlooks it.

I had a chance to relo to Macon, GA, for a pretty decent job.

I declined.

Martial Arts for women is a poisonous deception. Your friend survived because she had a knife even Paul Hogan could respect. Women should carry familiar, well practiced guns with them if they expect these kind of shenanigans.

My house is PAID for. I am not ready to start paying house notes again. Most people I know are paying over $1000 a month.

People leave us alone and that is all I can ask for.

Not quite sure where that is. We were going to see friends in midtown years ago & somehow ended up in Orange Mound. Got the hell out of there fast! Now that Tupelo offers flights to Nashville, maybe no more Memphis airport.

And they won’t let you carry more often than not!

I am a pizza delivery driver. I carry always. I work for a non-chain restaurant. If my boss told me I couldn't carry, I'd quit on the spot. He wouldn't get a second chance.
