As He Was Running Away With Her Purse.~

And AskedTo Explain Her Actions.

The Woman Replied,"I Was Standing At The Corner Bus Stop

For About 15 Minutes, Waiting For TheBus To Take Me Home After Work.

I AmA Waitress At A Local Cafe...

I Was There Alone,So I Had My Right Hand On My Pistol,

That Was In My Purse, That Was HungOver My Left Shoulder.

All Of A Sudden I Was BeingSpun AroundHard To My Left.

As I Caught My Balance, I Saw A Man

Running Away From Me With My Purse.

I Looked Down At My Right Hand And I SawThat My Fingers Were Wrapped Tightly

Around My Pistol.The Next Thing I Remember Is Saying Out Loud,

"No Way Punk! Your Not Stealing MyPay Check And Tips."

~I Raised My Right Hand, Pointed My Pistol

At The Man Running Away From Me With My Purse,

And Squeezed The Trigger Of My Pistol 6 Times!

~

When Asked By The Arraignment Judge,

"Why Did You Shoot The Man 6 Times?

~

The Woman Replied Under Oath,

"Because,When I Pulled The Trigger The 7th Time,It Only Went Click."

~

The Woman Was Acquitted Of All Charges.She Was Back At Work,At The Cafe, The Next Day!

 

 

 

Now that's Gun Control....

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

AMEN

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

If it is true, I wish we had "Judges" like that in Iowa.

she saved the tax payers a LOT of money....

[Yammer Dan]

Thats the Way it Should Be!!!

 

Sombody needs to tell her about speedloaders!!

[Sling]

I tried to google the Houston Herald to see the article.

There is no Houston Herald in Texas. When you google it

it brings up a bunch of sites and they all say it is false.

It's too bad though cause it would save the tax payers a lot

of money

[dynodon]

Well, Snopes can't find it. Might be true or just new enough that it hasn't been investigated yet.

 

Wait, theres more...I investigated a little more and several lists/blogs have this and call it a "joke" and nothing more.

[gunboat]

i live in houston and there is no such newspaper here. wish this was a true story would back her 110%.

reguards

don c.

[kenw]

I sure hope its true!!

[Venturous Randy]

It was true enough in my mind to make me feel better about the story and that is what matters to me.

I am also one of those people that checks Snopes for these things, but ocassionally, I DON"T want to know if it is not true, it is still a good story.

This thing has been floating around on the net for years now. Every once in a while someone, with a lack of creativity, will put another spin on it and start it again. It's getting old..... Yawn....

[jburrell]

Just think though in Texas no we are allowed to carry guns in our Cars and trucks--concealed--open it dont matter. Under the "Castle law" our car is just like our "Castle" and we are allowed to protect it. This is without a permit. We can also get a permit to carry a concealed weapon (pistol) just by applying and taking a 1 day class. Rules are lax so much so that a blind man got a license.

Be careful who you Rob/Attack/piss off in TEXAS as our shoot law no longer states that we must be "in fear of losing our life: before we can shoot. If used to be that you had to first try to run from the situation or be afraid you were going to die. If you shot someone that had broke into your house you had to make sure they stayed in your house. Couldn't let them get out and shoot them.Now all we need is to be afraid that we are in danger. A much broader range to be sure. REMEMBER NOW '" DON'T MESS WITH TEXAS" really means something.

When I got to this part I knew it was a fake. No one can be called in like this after a possible crime to explain themselves to a judge. Talk about legal issues.

Yea, oddly enough we are not an 'open carry' state though... I'd like to figure THAT one out
