I went to the Pike Creek ACME to get salmon for supper. While at the seafood counter, I noticed a pale young woman giving me the stink eye. She was transfixed on me. After getting my fish, I decided to wander the store to see if she would continue to monitor me. Sure enough; as I stopped in the bakery area, there she was about twenty feet from trying to not be seen. I moved along to inspect some produce. She was still in tow. Tiring of the chase, I headed for the self serve check out. While standing in line, she closed the distance. With her behind me, I said aloud "Damn, I knew I forgot something". I stepped out of line and went to a nearby aisle. Now she was first in line and a register opened up. She was being deliberately slow in scanning her items. I got back in line behind another woman(who looked remarkably like Queen Latifah). Two checkouts cleared and we went to adjacent registers. I quickly scanned my stuff and finished. The stalker quickly finished as well. As I walked to the exit, she fell in behind me. The other woman was walking out as well. Once we were outside, she loudly called to me and walked right up on me.
"Are you a cop?"
"No, I am a truck driver. Why do you ask?"
"Then you shouldn't have a gun."
At this point, the other woman stopped and stepped aside to watch what was unfolding.
"YOU are what is wrong with this country. You don't have a right to kill anyone!"
"Miss, I have no desire to kill anyone, and I promise you that I will never murder anyone."
"They are both the same!"
"Actually, they are not. One is a crime, the other is not. That being said, would you not agree that rape is a horrible despicable crime?"
"Well of course. Rape must be stopped at all costs!"
"OK then, I live less then ten minutes away. I'll call my wife and she can be here quickly."
"What for?"
"I would like you to tell her that she should not have used her gun to shoot the serial rapist that broke in while she was alone. I ask you to tell her that; by your decree, it would have been better that she was violently raped."
She immediately turned even more pasty faced as I spoke.
The other woman had enough of this spectacle and strode up to shove the woman away.
"Stupid bitch, get out of here now before I slap that dullard look off of your face!"
The stalker slinked away and the other woman turned to me.
"Sugar, you look like you need a hug." And with that she scooped me up and gave me a momma bear hug that would rival Amy's!
"You keep doing what you do and keep you and yours safe."
With that she was gone, leaving me there to ponder over what just happened.
