There is a gun show every few months in pensacola or milton. They offer a gun permit class. Take the class and send in the state fee. Get the permit and buy a gun you can comfortable handle. Use it if you need to.

Also don’t be one of the typical wal mart shopperswho you see walking in the parking lot texting or with your hands full with a cell phone in your ear not paying attention. Robbers look for folks distracted or not paying attention to rob.

These soup kitchens and churches need better regualtions as to who they help. If a person gets food or help and it is found out they are illegal or a fugutive, the church/kichen/mission should be held accountable for harboring an illegal or fugutive. Alabama has just passed that law. Why can’t we in florida do the same.

We just spent a ton of our tax money doing a study on the number of homeless folks in th area so area agency can receive our tax money to help these folks. The ACLU has tie the hands of local LEO’s on the rights homeless folks have.

My solution for the homeless. Take a county that is least populated. Move all the regular folks out. Fence the perimeter of the county. Then drop the homeless folks off, give them the basics of survival in the middle of the county. My mistake. I think we are aready doing that in parts of this county.

My Husband has for years instilled in me to “ALWAYS BE PREPARED”….Not paronoid……Not Freaked out…….Just always be prepared….
I have ridden my bike to Walmart through that area by the Tippin Post Office…..Never again…..

The Officers of Escambia County and the City Police Officers are working very hard to keep us safe….but I am with the above post by Kay…..Clean out this city….get them all the hell out of our town…..We are all working hard to stay alive….we don’t need these problems !!!

Be Safe

Everyone just watch your backs. Know who is around you at all time, and have something to protect yourselves. But like my husband always says to me if you get in a situation do pull the gun to quick, but if you have to protect yourself plan on using it or you’ll get shot with your own weapon. Hope it never comes to that dont want it on my conscience, but dont want to lose my family and what we have worked for. Everyone stay ALLERT and be ready at all time beause looking at some of the pics in the news lately you never know who has a weapon and is going to do something stupid. Faces can be decieving. STAY SAFE EVERYONE.

JA, from what I understand, this assault did not occur out in the concrete parking lot. Rather in a secluded area where people can take a break, and smoke as to not offend anyone. The bottom line is a term law enforcement and military combat personnel will recognize…situational awareness. Don’t turn your back to an entry point, whether it is a door or a trail in the woods. If you choose to not carry a firearm for personal protection, it is entirely up to you. One day you may have to ” get involved.”

Reason why I got a concealed weapon permit. Might be a good idea for other women to do also. You can never be to careful.

I’ve been to that Walmart many times during that time of day and it’s packed full of people, am I the only one who sees something wrong with all of those people in that parking lot, going in and out to their cars and driving around, and not ONE person saw this and did anything to help?
Yes, Hill was in the wrong and my heart goes out to those women who went thru this. But what about the people that walked by and didn’t notice 2 women sitting on their knees in a parking lot with a gun pointed at the back of their heads? Are we too busy that we can’t take notice of something like that happening? Or are we too worried about retaliation or ‘getting involved’?

Gun = 10 – 20 – life. Life in prison is too good of a punishment for him. Believe me, the 2 women victims in this case will also live in a prison (mentally) – He has planted a seed of fear in these 2 ladies and hopefully they have a good support system to help them recover from their terrible experience because they will need it. What a terrible waste of this thugs young life and how soon will he be out on the streets to do this again. He will be smarter and stronger so I certainly agree with Rod Pumas if you haven’t done so yet get your permit and carry your LEGAL weapon everywhere you go.

At least they got him. Now how about all the other scum in all the woods
drinking and drugging and won’t hold a job.

There are ad’s in Craig’s list for people who want to rent a room.
They could get two little jobs and support that. They could get a
shower and clean clothes from the mission. They could go to
library and use a computer. They have options.
They don’t care…….
They want to stick a gun in the back of two women’s heads and take
anything they want.

SHERIFF clean out our town of these people with no work, prospects,
or desire to live a decent life. The women of this town deserve better.
Police I emplore you to run them out of town or put them in jail. With
no money, it is just a matter of time before they ALL take a swat at
some unlucky victim, next time it may be YOUR WIFE or DAUGHTER.

ENOUGH!

“Karl Hill, 21, no permanent address”

“Hill, who lives on a wooded trail leading to the business”

Sounds like a transient bum panhandler to me. When is law enforcement going to crack down on this type of scum?
