I have had one heck of a evening!!!!!!

That SOB is a sick individual. In many ways, the freedoms of our society also sometimes work against us. You can't put any blame on yourself, Amy. Have faith in The Lord.

Believe me tonight, the Lord has heard plenty............and plenty and plenty that is why I try to find peace!!!!! ( I believe the Lord has been tired of my pleas tonight so he told me to get on the forums) just a little joke there laughter is the best medicine!!!
 
No pity here Amy. Lots of sympathy though. I don't have any experience with the kind of situation you've got. People amaze me sometimes. So many experience tragedies and somehow come to terms with them. I guess an imperfect world is different when it comes close to home.

Yea.. that is what I keep telling myself....I have a great life!!! but I keep feeling like I should do more....I have never had to deal with this......I live in a small town....I have family in the military (very PROUD) but this really threw me for a loop.....I know that bad things happen everyday but I just talked to her after I got back from Blade.......and I thought she was safe!!!!!!
 
If they go to the moooooovies do they take limooooooooooosines?????
 
It sounds like she could have used a little INFI.

I have a similar situation, an unstable ex-girlfriend.

Don't let this happen again, you can send me a Jungle Assault Battle Mistress.

You better throw in a cheese cake so that I can distract her.
 
Well all, I hope that I was not to much of a downer for everyone I will be fine!!!! I will be at work tommorrow and I will be peppy!!! I have to go now cause my mother has shown up and it is scary!!! We are a family and will get thru this she says.... (yes we will but she is still scary) she is telling me to get off the computer and talk to her and I feel I must cause Mommy's make everything feel better at least for a little while....(but she still scares me) Thank You all for listioning I have said it time and time again.....We are one happy family!!!! I owe you all big for putting up with me tonight!!!! Love and Kisses....
Amy-0
 
Restraining orders only will work if the person it applies to abides by the law.
There are just so many f-ed up people in the world, and they do terrible things to good people.

There is nothing you could have done.

Rat.... that is exactely what I have heard from the 25 police officers in the area that it happened at....I called everyone.....I know that they are working hard but a very nice policeman said to me "Maam" We do the best that we can and in times like this I wish we could have done more....nice man (I did kinda scould him for calling me Maam)............. but our police officers have 4 gazillion things to do in a night and I appreciate all that they do........I just wish that maybee this one particular night they would stopped this horrible thing.........Oh my....the Amy-0 mom is in the house and now she is trying to get me drink something to calm me down......I think it is peppermint shnaaps.......gross......what she does not understand that I feel better thanks to all of you!!!! thank you so much again I really gotta go or she is gonna get on here!!!!! Amy-0 out!!!!!!!!
 
:mad: :mad: :mad:

I'm glad that you thought to share your grief with us. Of course there's nothing that we can say to make sense of such a horrible thing, but I hope its enough to give our sincere condolences and to let you know that you are in our thoughts and hearts.

Deepest regards from Debbie and Shane.
 
Deeply sorry about the death of your friend.

RF is right: legal restrictions only work for people who respect the law. All too often, people like your friend's husband just don't care about legalities. They figure they are above or beyond the law.

About the only thing that could have saved your friend would have been the attitude and skill that would have had her destroying him the instant she saw him coming thourgh the door - INFI, .45, whatever. I think that's very difficult for a normal person in our society to do.

God bless her - may she rest in peace, and find comfort in the angels' arms.
 
Amy-o, there are no answers, only questions. This is life, miserable as it is. As I have no answers for you, you could at least try this-Light a candle and relax in its glow, remembering your friend and all the good times you shared. This, and tears might help. My other suggestion is to put a picture of that S.O.B. on a bale of hay, then shoot or stab it into meaninglessness. Either idea may help you gain some closure. My condolences to you, her family and all touched by such a senseless act.
 
Amy,,, Your mom is your best friend in whole world!

So sorry this has happened...

Unfortunately, it will happen again, to someone else, someday, and as this time, no one will be there to prevent it. But we have to keep trying.

Big Hugs to you!!!
 
That is disgusting. :mad:

I do have a plan though. Anyone here ever seen "The Cable Guy"? :eek:

EDITED FOR INAPPROPRIATE FORUM CONTENT

People like this, sheesh, what is the world coming to? :mad:

Things like this get me so fired up, I can't take these kinds of people polluting our Earth. Amy, there is nothing you could have done to prevent this, you could have been killed as well trying to defend her from an armed attacker. Stay strong, I have never had to deal with anything like this but I know what it is like to lose someone you care for (my Grandpa).

Sorry for ther bad language, but this really :mad: me.
 
Amy, wow, I'm sorry. My wife went thru something like this three years ago when her Aunt and Uncle were murdered in a bank robbery.

The things I saw from watching her?

There is no way you can make sense of something like this when it happens. Brutal tragedy like this is a senseless waste.

It is natural to think about the "what if's" but try and brush them aside as quickly as possible - they don't help.

Cry, yell, laugh, scream. Get it out.

And most importantly, don't make big life decisions for awhile. You don't always see things accurately when viewing them from a numb, shell-shocked perspective.

Again, I'm sorry Amy. We're here when you need us.
