"Where does one get a vial of deer urine?"

Every sporting goods store should carry it during deer season; aids hunters in masking/attracting.

Meth has several things such as Drano, lithium metal, brake fluid, ether and many more poisons in it.It really is poisoning those ignorant enough to use it. Can you imagine the cancer rate of those that survive the abuse now. They are gonna grow a third eye or something.

Jesus! I just thought of pregnant women and birth defects!!

I would encourage anyone in a "can't" carry city (or a "won't" carry state of mind), to at least carry some LE grade OC spray, learn to recognise potential threats (while there's still time to respond), but most of all, learn to know when and where you are most at risk and avoid putting yourself in those situations and be prepared.

Right. I mean, taunting and daring a thug with a gun to shoot her. She got what was coming to her. Sounds a little harsh, but hey, stupid is as stupid does.

What are you talking about?
She didn't dare or taunt anybody. She simple asked somebody with a gun if shooting them was what he intended to do.

Your claim that she go what was coming to her as if she deserved to be shot is incredibly warped.

Her boyfriend is busying spouting platitudes lest he be forced to answer why his spineless, pussified self didn't defend his girlfriend in crisis.

Huh? Guess you think he was capable of stopping bullets?

No it was turning his back to her while she was facing criminals by herself.

Hi KG9-

"...The only thing that seperates [Nicole duFresne] from any other victim of violent crime in NYC is that she was one of the rising glittery people of stage and screen: An upcoming *star*!..."

Your commentary is unfortunately right on the money. If she was an unattractive, 5'1", 195 lb. woman with a faint mustache, this story would have been buried by now. That is the sad reality of our "media bite" society.

Not unusual for meth addicts to stay awake and spun for 72 or more hours straight. Then they crash for 24 or more hours.

I've worked in a number of factories with the requisite number of bikers (it seemed one couldn't legally drive a forklift with riding a hog to work) and there were some serious drug problems and obvious dental issues. One self-proclaimed "scooter trash" gal had some sort of black scruz on her remaining couple of teeth. She was late thirties, and I'd be quite surprised if she's still alive.

This gal told me she once hid in a closet for a couple of days while tweaking. Who knows if her stories are true or not (like having sex with a police officer in his patrol car after having been supplied cocaine). Her life is/was a sad story, really, and she certainly is the one who chose the plot.

I was always kind to her, but I recall her showing me that she had accidentally cut herself on the job. I would have burned her with a soldering iron if she got any closer with that biohazard. Might as well have sat down on a whoopie cushion filled with anthrax.

My brother just got back from Europe tonite. He spent a great deal of time in Amsterdam and while he is a lifelong Marley, he now understands why drugs should not be legalized.....hard drugs in particular.

I had been there before and to the Needle Parks in Zurich so I already knew but he was appalled at junkies everywhere and everything from heroin ("charlie"..lol), crack, coke, crank etc openly hawked everywhere in full view of the cops. Folks lying in gutters....just very gritty for Europe.

Sad....he liked the cafes but thought they should clean up the junkies.

Absolutely true, but it's not just the media's fault. Go back through the various FR threads about this shooting (including this one) and take note of how many people are posting giant pictures of Nicole showing off her breasts, even though their written comments in no way require a photo of her to be posted to make their points.

She was blonde, attractive, with big hooters. Nobody would be saying a word otherwise.

(Ironically, those same attributes probably played a role in her death. She probably spent her entire life being treated like she was a superior human being to the rest of us, which in turn led to her having a snotty, obnoxious personality, which led her to stupidly mouth off to a nutcase with a gun...)

The cafes enable the junkies. I see he's still as illogical as always.

If I were her father, the offal that murdered her would not live to stand trial.

Her father is already on record as saying something to the effect of, "If only we were an enlightened, gun-free society, my daughter would be alive today." Her mother, also. Completely clueless. Completely leftist.
