Robbery story

Post by T3hK1w1 »

Well, today my father and I were talking with our next door neighbor, and she said that a close friend of hers was robbed at gunpoint earlier this week as she was leaving her place of work about 9-9:30pm after closing it for the night. My neighbor is understandibly upset about this (and so, presumably, is her friend who was robbed) and has decided she will move as soon as possible. For those of you who live in Houston, this happened in NW Houston in the strip center at the intersection of Jones and Grant where the micky d's is being rebuilt.

I hope that works out for them.

I don't know of any part of the Houston area that can be considered safe. The best one can do is learn to respond to it.

The NRA & TSRA are a bargain; they're much cheaper than the cold, dead hands experience.

From what I've read, the influx of Katrina refugees has only made things worse . . . certainly, some got jobs and are contributing to society, but it would seem a fair number of undesirables have decided to stay on and cause trouble . . . too bad.

Thus the need for the Texas CHL huh?
