I got this through a forward email, thought it was pretty funny. "This was found by one of my buddie's on craigslist. Pretty funny... To the Guy Who Mugged Me Downtown (Downtown, Savannah) I was the white guy with the black Burrberry jacket that you demanded I hand over shortly after you pulled the knife on me and my girlfriend. You also asked for my girlfriend's purse and earrings. I hope you somehow come across this message. I'd like to apologize. I didn't expect you to crap your pants when I drew my pistol after you took my jacket. Truth is, I was wearing the jacket for a reason that evening, and it wasn't that cold outside. You see, my girlfriend had just bought me that Kimber 1911 .45 ACP pistol for Christmas, and we had just picked up a shoulder holster for it that evening. Beautiful pistol, eh? It's a very intimidating weapon when pointed at your head, isn't it? I know it probably wasn't a great deal of fun walking back to wherever you'd come from with that brown sludge flopping about in your pants. I'm sure it was even worse since you also ended up leaving your shoes, cellphone, and wallet with me. I couldn't have you calling up any of your buddies to come help you try to mug us again. I took the liberty of calling your mother, or "Momma" as you had her listed in your cell, and explaining to her your situation. I also bought myself some gas on your card. I gave your shoes to one of the homeless guys over by Vinnie Van Go Go's, along with all of the cash in your wallet, then I threw the wallet itself in a dumpster. I called a bunch of phone sex numbers from your cell. They'll be on your bill in case you'd like to know which ones. Alltel recently shut down the line, and I've only had the phone for a little over a day now, so I don't know what's going on with that. I hope they haven't permanently cut off your service. I was about to make some threatening phone calls to the DA's office with it. Oh well. So, about your pants. I know that I was a little rough on you when you did this whole attempted mugging thing, so I'd like to make it up to you. I'm sure you've already washed your pants, so I'd like to help you out. I'd like to reimburse you for the detergent you used on the pants. What brand did you use, and was it liquid or powder? I'd also like to apologize for not killing you and instead making you walk back home humiliated. I'm hoping that you'll reconsider your choice of path in life. Next time you might not be so lucky. If you read this message, email me and we'll do lunch and laundry. Peace! - Alex ----- End forwarded message -----" |

Can you imagine being the mugger? He has to walk home with no money, shoes, etc. If it's real that has to be one of the best stories I have ever heard. |

Yeah and if they were more liberal with carry permits that situation would be repeated over and over. |

I've said it before, and I'll say it again. Vermont is the best for carrying a weapon. I'm sure it's one of the reasons we have such a small crime rate... |

I have a LTC for the People's Republic of Massachusetts. Not so useful since the state is so small and the neighboring states don't honor it. I seldom carry since it's so easy to drop out of the state. |

Snopes is looking into it. Funny story but betting it's just that: a story. http://www.snopes.com/crime/justice/mugger.asp |

It's a funny story, but it would be beyond stupid, and I bet anyone with a concealed carry permit would know better. It would open you up to felony armed robbery charges, plus a grocery list of "add on" mandatory time for firearms being involved in a felony. |

It's the type of story that does more to erode legitimate rights of gun owners. . . . the guy, and the story sounds bogus, with the Kimber committed more crimes than the other poor sap ever dreamed of . . . beer talk. |

And the give-away is . . . .
quote:“He actually said, ‘I’m surprised I haven’t thrown up yet,’ ” Willis said. “He was that upset.”
Few folks, imbued with bravado from television, have a real understanding of what a shooting is like. It was a huge surprise to me and take years to recover from. |

Swordsman, whats so weird? I'm 23 and my girlfriend is 42. I'm aware its not going to be a permanent establishment, and that I'm pretty much her play thing. But we're both getting what we want out of it. |

It's the type of story that does more to erode legitimate rights of gun owners After reading it a second time, I think I'll agree with Court this time. And whilst stopping a crime is great, turning around and becoming a criminal yourself, not so great. Me I live in The Peoples Republic of Kalifornia. Almost never carry. |

Was it Sun Tsu who said something to the effect of; You can not fully appreciate/your own life untill you have taken someone else's ? I love it. |

Kind of reminds me of the movie"Deal of the Century" when Chevy Chase robs the robber. |

My wife and I were watching Who Wants To Be A Millionaire while we were in bed. I turned to her and said, "Do you want to have sex?" "No," she answered. I then said, "Is that your final answer?" She didn't even look at me this time, simply saying "Yes." So I said, "Then I'd like to phone a friend." O' god you can tell I'm bored! K |
