Have you ever been robbed? For more than just a few bucks? I have. |
|
And those of you who have had their home burglarized, or been stuck up, or been scammed, know the the sick, nauseous feeling that accompanied the event. Those of us who are on the emotional side suffer longer and harder, sometimes for months or even years.
I've been grifted for $4,000, held up at knifepoint, and had y home burglarized. Each time I suffered this horrible feeling inside. Hard to describe it except to feel spiritually, and economically, "violated".
That's how I'm beginning to feel about events.

2. We've all been robbed. |

All of our lives. I don't mean to denigrate the more direct experience you have had, but we have all been robbed, and robbed, and robbed.

5. Yeah. It's kinda like that. |
|
Had my home burglarized and have had employees steal from my company. I usually feel bad and then I feel very very angry. I am coming around to the second step in this process.

You will feel so much better. I do.
In fact, I have had several anti-Bush bumper stickers "removed" from my truck over the last eight years. I now have an NRA sticker and a sticker that says " Bitter, White, Blue collar, gun owner for "Obama!" Guess what? No one has fucked with my stickers since. For what it's worth, I have a built in gun safe in the truck with a Walther P99, 9 mm semi automatic pistol in the safe and two magazines with 10 rounds each in a seperate location per California (Stupid) law, but no one fucks with my stickers anymore.
