He mugged the wrong woman.

[TX-RAT]

My wife went to town to the local HEB grocery store. She finished shopping and was on her way to the car, when a 15yr old little piece of shit, knocked her down and tried to get her purse. In the pursuing struggle to keep her purse, she managed to get the little bastard into a choke hold, and keep him there until 2 gentlemen came to her aid. One skinned elbow and a softball size bruise on her butt were the only injuries she sustained luckily.
Not bad for a little old lady.
Well early fifties.
I could of told him that was a bad idea. I've seen her throw 300lb calves on there ass. He weighed about 130.
By the way those 2 gentlemen get a free hunt on my place this year.

1. Glad to hear she's OK

Did the punk get turned over to law enforcement?

[TX-RAT]

3. They held him there until the PD arrived.

He's in county now unable to post bail. I told the Sheriff, I'd Bail him out, he declined.

10. She's a lady after my own heart

the last scumbag who tried to attack me got 2 broken ribs for his effort.

I guess those of us who came of age in the 60s aren't easy targets.

13. What were you gonna do to him?

>>He's in county now unable to post bail. I told the Sheriff, I'd Bail him out, he declined.<<

Gotta love Texas. "Yeah, can I get that little SOB *out* of jail?" :evilgrin:

2. Glad she's ok

You might thank the stars the little punk wasnt carrying a knife or gun or something. That could have turned ugly.

Score one for the good guys/gals ;)

[TX-RAT]

4. Thanks.

I told Luna she was tough. Hell i won't mess with her.

5. OMG! That's why I no longer carry a purse

These days I just carry a wallet and I conceal it well within my person. I haven't forgotten the story of the woman who was dragged to her death by a purse strap here in Michigan, nor the woman who was shot dead for hers in a store parking lot. Too many desperate people these days, and the Bush policies are creating more of them by the hundreds every single day.

I'm so glad to hear your wife's story had a happy ending!:)

[TX-RAT]

7. Thank you

She's fine.

[NorthernSpy]

6. I'm sorry that happened, TX-RAT...

... and I'm glad that Mrs. TX-RAT prevailed and wasn't seriously injured. Must have been a frightening situation, even so.

8. Thanks

Actually she said, she never got scared, just mad as hell. And she's still pissed. I think she wants to go another round with him.
My moneys on her.
Can't wait to see how the paper handles it.

[olddem43]

9. trouble is TX-RAT, the next time the little bastard will be packing

heat, probably an assault weapon. Anyway, thanks for a good story. I'm glad she is OK.

[enfield collector]

14. no such thing as an assualt weapon anymore. also handgun

is the preferred weapon for muggers, it's kind of hard to conceal a 9#+ 40" long rifle.

12. Ms. Rat 1, Asshole 0

Good for Ms. Rat! First: I'm glad she's O.K.

Second: We want a link when it hits the paper.

[Romulus]

11. holy cow

glad she's ok.

That kid will never live this one down :evilgrin:

[RoeBear]

15. I hope the little coward...

...finds a new hobby. Tell your wife we are proud of her. And take her to dinner.
