My Aunt was robbed. At gunpoint. In front of her house. She was coming home with the money from her shop. She got out of the car, and found a gun barrel between her eyes. When the attackers went around to the other side of the car, she ran off screaming for help. People were all around, but nobody cared to act. She finally found a police officer, and he didn't seem to care enough to hurry.

Her asshole husband says, no they're not going to move. This is their home and this is where they're staying (they live in small town Alabama). He also made her get rid of her dogs. He didn't like them and didn't want to feed them. She's sure they would have protected her.

They weren't injured, beyond a few bruises.

Her and her husband. He only had a few bucks in his wallet, though.

She'd given up on the idea of divorce years ago.

She's going to get a dog the next time she get's an offer, whether he likes it or not.

She doesn't feel safe there in that small hick town. Not at home or at her shop. I doubt if there's anything she can do with the money. I'm not certain they knew she had the shop's money, but it certainly is possible. She said they almost took her shoulder when they ripped her purse off it.

She has no idea why nobody (including the police officer) seemed to care about what was goin on. I didn't hear if it seemed like a racial thing. The town is full of poor blacks, but I think her neighborhood is white.

Thanks, everybody.
