Another attack in webster by two women

[seamusTX]

Now that is what I call a couple rough looking bruisers. It would be nice to believe they will now be off the streets, but it will probably get plea bargained down to probation. The lesson they just learned is not to leave any witnesses alive. Next time they will sneak up behind the victim and club them in the head first.

You're probably right about probation, if it's their first offense. Even criminals who are convicted and sentenced to long terms seems to get out quickly.

Hopefully they will have learned that robbing women of their purses doesn't get them much money, and they'll stick to shoplifting.

(I know that IDs can be used to commit identity theft, but that requires a certain level of IQ and leaves a paper trail.)

She did everything the "authorities" have always told her to do

One law enforcement authority with considerable street cred has a new line which potential crime victims ought to be aware of:

The FBI says a homicide committed by a private citizen is justified when a person is slain during the commission of a felony, such as a burglary or robbery.

No one has ever tried to take my purse. Maybe it's because they are distracted by the sun dress and pith helmet I wear when shopping at Hobby Lobby...

Holy Smoley!!!! That was you???? Your right about one thing, it was distracting.

Maybe they'll learn not to leave behind witnesses who can ID them.
