  1. Well, it seems that the lesson to be learned from this is that it's unwise to walk around Annandale alone after dark.

    These thieves are, however, taking a lot for granted in the manner they're confronting their victims. If it were me, they'd be staring down the barrel of a pistol. I'm not a gun crazy. I don't support the NRA and I don't consider myself to be the next Charles Bronson. While I don't make a point of wandering around here after dark, sometimes it's unavoidable. That's why I recently acquired a concealed weapon permit. These types of crimes are becoming too common and it seems wise to anticipate the worst.

    1. Well if our elected officials did their job to keep us safe harbors and land we would not have to resort to returning to the wild wild west toting personal guns. It is the failure of our current leadership that is the reason why we are having all these Trumpsters.

    2. I still prefer the wall, return all the crap to sender. We will need to use Dulles Airport as point a of departure because we are getting the crap from all over the world.

  2. You can say what you want but when you open the door to all the illegals this is what you get. Thank you Penny Gross.
