Re: An Encounter At Wal-Mart

"Through church and over the next few days I was perplexed. Why would a man of my stature, a fit six foot one, be chosen as prey by two criminals? I could not understand it. Those kind of things happened to the elderly, women, the weak."

I came to the conclusion years ago that when I heard the old saying, "Don't go looking for trouble!"...

The conclusion I have made since then that it is "trouble that finds you these days"...

Its unfortunate, and it is a sign of the times, where anyone with criminal intent, whether it is a hardened and seasoned criminal, or just a person looking for a quick "score" may cross your path anytime, anywhere...

Which should give us a good lesson in where and when we should be prepared to meet that threat regardless of hemming and hawing over the reasons for why "you" may be considered an easy mark...

This man did a good job, and it had nothing to do with whether a persons life was worth less that a piece of property...We've seen this time and time again, and this type of crime (or whatever you want to call it) is not likely to stop anytime soon...

It does kinda stink when most of the time you have to keep your head on a swivle...But that is the world we live in...
