She didn't survive because she had a gun, she survived because she had a mindset...

Glad things worked out, but that is one wacky lady.

Less than a block, DNS? It might have taken her longer to get to her car, start it, etc.

1) Was Spartanburg settled by the Irish or something?
North Shamrock Street? Irish Hill Lane ? 2) Instead of outlawing guns, why don't they outlaw hoodies? |

Good for her! To quote the late Col. Cooper: "The solution to armed robbery is a dead robber." This maxim clearly also applies to would-be rapists as well.

Of course, shock and adrenalin can do strange things to one's judgment, but forgetting that one is carrying is a pretty serious mistake, and running past and away from one's running car that contains one's belongings is surely not the wisest strategy. And saying that one will get a bigger gun if it happens again does sound pretty darn silly. |

Video is gone, but that reminds me of a situation of an old WW2 vet that was attacked in a home invasion, the two brother's were stabbing him in the head, yes,.. the head.
He pulled out his little (Can you get any smaller?) NAA mini 22 revolver, and shot them. They ran away to the ER. NAILED! In so many words, he said next time, and he said to him self in the interview "Shut up" |
