    Basically a 70 year old man taking a walk in the morning was jumped and beaten baddly. He's in critical condition. This happened in Tacoma. Here is the link. When we say the story ran on the news they said he was found with his wallet on him. He wasn't robbed.

    A similar thing happened about 2 years ago. A guy(mid-upper 20's) was walking home in Tacoma late at night and was beat to death by a group of young teens. All the kids were caught and found guilty. I don't remember any of them showing any remores or what the penalty was. A grandmother of one of the kids said on camera "well there is nothing for them to do". Nothing to do so you kill somebody.
    I take our dog for a walk every morning. You just can't feel safe anymore.

    That is a bunch of BS. I hope they have a public hanging for someone. I would fly up to see that.

    Neighbors even admitting to hearing it happen, but did nothing to help the guy. How could you lay in bed and listen to this happen out your window? The guy is 70.

    I'll have to start using that as an excuse for our 2 year old when he does something bad. He's in daycare, so I'll have to blame them.

    Todays society saddens me. You hear so many storys about people getting assaulted, raped, robbed, killed, etc... and people witness it and do nothing. ****, get involved people don't just sit there. I spend a lot of time on the roads and have come across many accident scenes where people are only worried about getting through the traffic and being a looky lou. I always stop and make sure people are ok. It blows my mind how many people dont even stop to see if anybody is hurt. Things arent the way they used to be and I'm afraid of where they are going.

    Back Jan. 2, 2000: I got jumped pretty badly by 2 girls and a guy, on my way out of my parents house to my car to meet Art for a movie. I was like 20 years old or something and they were 17, 19 and 19 years old, I didn't know them at all. They just had nothing beter to do that night I guess...?
    I screamed for help numerous times as I ended up sitting on top of one girl and punching her and gouging at her eyes but I was also being kicked, punched and hit in every place you could imagine. I knew if I let go of the girl under me she would only attack me again as well. Until finally the other girl pulled my head back by my hair and kneed me right in the head. I fell off of the girl and into the street and I only remember seeing a gaze of head lights coming towards me. And they took my cell phone and went running.
    LUCKILY!!! my neighbors across the street came out and just saw the last of it and then jumped into his van and chased those little punks to their HOUSE!
    I couldn't believe my family inside did not hear me. I know my step father is an asshole but this was the worst because he did hear me but he told my mother he had no idea it was me... yeah!
    Anyhow, I walked into my mothers house with blood dripping from my face on a white Guess sweat shirt and sooooo out of breath I thought I'd never catch my breath and collapsed on the floor.
    The police showed up and thanks to my good memory and the neighbor we found them and I pointed them out and pressed charges.
    The one girl that was 19 took most of the wrap for her younger cousin and went to a womens prison for 9 months. The others got out of it I guess? The cops said the 17 year old was wanted in conection to some other things and they were looking for her. The guy, well I just could not say " I saw his face as he hit me" so the police along with him saying that he didn't touch me went along with it.
    When we went to court the girl tried to turn it into some racial thing. Which waws not the case at all! My neighbor and friend who chased them was also of thier race and vouched for me.
    SOME KIDS ARE JUST F"N PUNKS!!! They think they are invisible now a days.

    The guy that was killed a couple of years ago had just left a coffee bar and was walking by a park was jumped by the kids. A lot of people were really disturbed by this. I don't blame them. The oldest kid was maybe 14-15. They just ganged up like a pack of parona. This wasn't race related either. None of them said why they did it. Too young and stupid to know what they had done.
    It's good to hear you walked away JackieV.
