Texas Gun Control

A TRUE STORY FROM...

"THE HOUSTON HERALD NEWSPAPER"

IN HOUSTON, TEXAS

MARCH 5th, 2009

~

Last Thursday Night Around Midnight,

A Woman From Houston, Texas Was Arrested,

Jailed, And Charged With Manslaughter

For Shooting A Man 6 Times In The Back

As He Was Running Away With Her Purse.

~

The Following Monday Morning,

The Woman Was Called In Front Of The

Arraignment Judge, Sworn In,

And Asked To Explain Her Actions.

~

The Woman Replied,

"I Was Standing At The Corner Bus Stop

For About 15 Minutes, Waiting For The

Bus To Take Me Home After Work.

I Am A Waitress At A Local Cafe...

~

I Was There Alone,

So I Had My Right Hand On My Pistol,

That Was In My Purse, That Was Hung

Over My Left Shoulder.

~

All Of A Sudden I Was Being

Spun Around Hard To My Left.

As I Caught My Balance, I Saw A Man

Running Away From Me With My Purse.

~

I Looked Down At My Right Hand And I Saw

That My Fingers Were Wrapped Tightly

Around My Pistol.

The Next Thing I Remember Is Saying Out Loud,

"No Way Punk! Your Not Stealing My

Pay Check And Tips."

~

I Raised My Right Hand, Pointed My Pistol

At The Man Running Away From Me With My Purse,

And Squeezed The Trigger Of My Pistol 6 Times!

~

When Asked By The Arraignment Judge,

"Why Did You Shoot The Man 6 Times?

~

The Woman Replied Under Oath,

"Because, When I Pulled The Trigger Of

My Pistol The 7th Time, It Only Went Click."

~

The Woman Was Acquitted Of All Charges.

And She Was Back At Work,

At The Cafe, The Next Day!

Now that's Gun Control....
