First off, I can't believe that anyone would pay $2,100.00 for a purse, but that's just my old fogey thinking.
Always be SA when leaving the mall, the bank, or anywhere that you may have been observed. If you see the same car behind you after making a few turns, drive to a police station, or call 911 and get the police to stop the vehicle, while you continue to drive. get the LP info, and a description if possible. DON'T GO HOME!! until you are certain that you are no longer being followed.
This happens a lot at malls around here, especially at Christmas time, where someone will take a purchase to their vehicle, and then go back in to continue shopping.

I think most people are not trained/think to look in their rearview. We as a country, have to pay attention so these things stop happening. This is one reason I don't let my wife go to our bank anymore.

I (reluctantly) went to the Galleria on a weekend a month or so ago. Though it's a very Fancy, High End mall, it looked to me like 90% of the people walking around there were better matched to Gunspoint mall. Which makes the jugging event unsurprising.

Small wonder that a number of high end retailers have moved to the new River Oaks District shopping center on the other side of 610 along Westheimer.

And the Anti's wonder why and try to dismiss that women are the fastest-growing segment of gun purchasers.
One of these days, some thugs are going to run into a woman gun owner unwilling to be a victim and fights back....with extreme prejudice.

Hopefully the media will run that story too.
