I'm sure she won't have to buy the first round in Valhalla. A true warrior who died in defense of her own...and unarmed, at that!

Good thing too, that story makes me think human trafficking.

Sounds like it. Too bad she didn't have a .45 on her.

a .22 would've done the trick. plugging holes takes precedence over snatching girls.

I should rephrase that, it's not a good thing this happened, but I'm glad the girl didn't get snatched. What happens to victims of human trafficking doesn't bear thinking on. I'm glad she had a hero of a grandma who acted, she had to have a pretty good idea how it would play out.

If we had a government worth a damn, this guy and his buddies would be a side party for her.

The guy who tried to do the grab was later killed in a shootout. No word on his conspirators.

Damn shame he didn't die earlier... (Sometimes I get that "duty to defend yourself, to prevent subsequent harm to others" bit - I think from something Mrs. Byrne wrote.)
