    There are some sick people in the world. I read this and they said the baby died but the mother was expected to recover, I doubt she will ever recover from the trauma of having that done to her.

    If I was her, or the father,
    I'd be mad enough to murder.

    WTH is wrong with people.

    I told my wife to meet people inside McD's or someplace public for those kind of transactions. If they refuse....the deal is a no go.

    People are not to be trusted.

    For CL interactions with strangers, there are always 2 of us, and well prepared.[;)]

    As I understand it, murder is to kill without good cause. I think in this case it would be quite justified and should even be encouraged. Friggin' animals...[:(!][V][xx(]

    WHY did she claim it was a miscarriage? Or am I reading it wrong?

    It was the attacking woman who claimed she had the baby by miscarriage.

    Yep. My wife and I go together and meet the other party somewhere like out in the Walmart parking lot. One of us stands back several paces to observe and both of us are packing. So far that method has worked fine. [:D]

    That's the really strange part. Why do that?
    To explain/dispose of the corpse?
    Can you imagine the receptionist's reaction?

    I'll bet they disposed of the corpse and took the baby in for an initial checkup, claiming it was hers by miscarriage, and got caught.

    That either means
    a) She is still pregnant
    or
    b) Her husband believed she was pregnant.

    Doesn't it?

    Now I'm confused.

    Any of you use Facebook?

    I do, and I find a number of pages dedicated to face-to-face local gun selling, buying, and trading. These yahoos actually meet up with strangers with money and/or guns in hand, to do business on some store parking lot.

    Biggest complaint is that the other party didn't show up for the meeting, or sold the gun to someone else for more money before the meeting occurred.

    There are also reports of a more ominous nature.

    A couple of the Facebook yahoos met up in Greenville, Texas, where I used to work, and one of them got pistol whipped and his gun stolen.

    These yahoos seem to think that if they are packing, and have a friend with them, they will be OK. Best of luck to ya, guys!

    I've used CL before and so has my wife. It's great if you are careful about it. This woman though should get the chair...how evil of a crime.

    I read on one of the local news-dot-coms that some police departments are now offering to meet with both parties to help facilitate the transactions safely.

    Yup. That's being offered by more and more police departments around here. Just meet in the lobby at a cop shop. Should be a little safer!

    Too bad they didn't have CL when Obama's mama was preggers.
    Some will die in hot pursuit
    And fiery auto crashes
    Some will die in hot pursuit
    While sifting through my ashes
    Some will fall in love with life
    And drink it from a fountain
    That is pouring like an avalanche
    Coming down the mountain

    Not much different then someone walking into your shop. They could just as easily pull on you and shoot you dead and rob you. Didn't that just happen in at a gun shop called Shawnee or something?? I just met a guy last Sunday in the parking lot of Bass Pro and we traded rifles, and he gave me $800 in cash. Now I met him through an online firearms classified site that has feedback so I felt relatively comfortable meeting a guy that had done 10+ previous FTFs with good reviews. Is there always a potential for danger, sure but there is potential for danger In a lot of things we do every day.


    Years ago we had an attractive older realtor brutally raped and murdered, found in the basement of an unoccupied home that was For Sale. The couple (man and woman) she met to show the house were two sadists that were traveling the country killing people, then they set her up, met her and the woman helped her male lover brutally raped her and they beat her to death. I suppose based on that experience all folks should stop working as Realtors or at least showing homes because of the potential danger. If we want to live our lives, and conduct business we all have to expose ourselves, all we can do is try to make it as safe as possible.

    Who knows if it would have made a difference. Once they spent sometime chatting her up, ch3ekcing out the house, luring her into the basement I imagine she was comfortable, not paying to much attention because she was not in "that defensive" frame of mind. These sociopaths are very good at reading people, and disarming them with their charm.
