I shop at Dollar Tree.
And proud of it.
The other day I saw an old guy in Wal-Mart (aka China Mart) comparing prices for something at different stores on is smart phone.

True story....some of my kin owned a small general store in our very tiny rural community in South Louisiana.
A couple of the kids of the immediate family were into "electronic" stuff (this was back in the early 1970's, and "electronic" was pretty primitive compared to now), and had "wired" the store so they could listen in on the store from home.
Late one night, they heard voices in the store where none should be at that hour. It was obviously a robbery in progress.
Dad (and store owner) gets on the phone and calls a few neighbors. A short time later, the store is surrounded by locals with guns (I should mention that the Dad was a former Marine, with five kids (including the girl), who were armed and could shoot).
At some point the perps became aware of the situation, and THEY called the sheriff to come and get them.....
>>The perp is a registered sex offender.<<
The perp is NOT a registered sex offender.

Could be, but I still would have intervened. That couldn’t have been the only person manning the store. He was the closest person to the perp. Even if he had to grab a can, or something else, and hit the guy on the head.
What the HELL did the perp have in mind?
Grab a 13-year-old girl in a public place and just DRAG HER AWAY? Did he honestly think he could pull off such a stunt?
I don’t get it. Jumping out of a van and grabbing a girl walking by would be a “classic” abduction, but DRAGGING one away from a public place? With security cameras and witnesses? And furious moms?
Momma should have grabbed a can of beets and clocked him with it.
“You can kiss my low rent azz.”
GMTA.
Awesome mom. Momma grizzly.
Bizarre. What would make the perp think he could get away with it??? There has to me more to the story. I’m betting on there being some sort of romantic relationship between the girl and the perp. A runaway plan where she chickened out? Maybe something along those lines.
Not condoning his actions, not for a second. Just trying to make sense of it all.
I saw a mention about the guys uncle saying that the kidnapper is severely mentally ill
Yeah, but we tend to take justice in our own hands only for actual assaults/murders. Attempts will only get you beat down and held for the sheriff.
He/she is a superior POS, maybe.
True dat. I grew up in Baton Rouge and had relatives in Henderson, Morgan City and Houma.
POS’s like the perp in this case would have wound up a gator bait. Ah gah-rone-tee you dat!
