Seriously, I felt like a basket case after this happened, yesterday. I have no idea why this freaked me out. It has been 10 yrs, for heaven's sake, and lots of these shootings, no one them have phased me, past just feeling sad that it occurred, but for some reason, this one threw me right back to that day, and then that time period, and my ex-husband, the wife beater. I thought I was turning into a DUmmie, for a while there. Turned out, I think I just needed to turn off the news, and take some cold meds, and a nap. Yes, the shooting I was in, in a little town of 9,000 ppl, for goodness sake, with almost zero serious crime, and they had put this guy who somehow was in Witness Protection, out there in the boonies. When they arrested him, the C. O. P. went on television and unfurled his arrest records, and they were so long, they pooled in the floor. This was a really, really bad dude. My son had just sold him oranges for school, two days before. He was a pleasant neighbor, in a old biker grungy way. Anyway, I had to see and hear these cops, 3 of them I had went through school with, scream as they bled out and died. Awful experience. The good news is, Mr. a**hole bad guy seemed to have an accident not long after he went to the pen. He was beaten to death, and stabbed. Shame that, isn't it? Cop killers deserve the worst kinds of hell, and this guy yesterday was a wife beater? Think that's what my trigger was. Anyway, I am done angsting. Thanks for the kindness.
