I haven't been around much

At first it was because I was mad, then I decided I was over it, and though I was not happy about some of the changes it didn't matter it was the community I love here. So screw what happens behind the scenes I am here for the community and the people I have met. I started to get more active then one thing after another hit my family. The first was the death of my sister-in-law, if you follow me you might have read about how I was looking for a home for her dog a few weeks ago. but that is the first of many things that have happened in the last few weeks.

One of those things was my daughter was attacked

I will start by saying she is okay and is fighting back. I will not go into details on what happen as it is not my story to tell, but the person who attacked her has been charged with this crime 3 times in the last year to even younger victims than my daughter. I think she was targeted because even though she is 20 she looks like she is 13 or 14 in the face. I am angry that the justice system that should be keeping these predators off the streets let this SOB out on bond. 3 victims before my daughter in 2018 alone, there are likely more but because the guy is only 19 his public criminal record only goes back a year. The stories in the papers about what he did to those girls is similar to what happened to my daughter. I am trying to let the justice system handle it, as he hasn't gone to trial yet over the other charges, and now they will have my daughter's case to add to them. But it is hard not to go hunt down this man and take care of it myself.

So since my daughter lives off campus

I took her up her gun, the man has threatened her and if he happens to show up she will have a way to protect herself with deadly force if she has to. Not to brag but all my kids know how to shoot but out of all three of my children she hits the target 100% of the time. She is a damn good shot, she refuses to be a victim and it is the only way I can sleep at night. I keep getting these debilitating migraines since it has happened. So this is why I haven't been around much.

I worked so hard to try to protect my children

And I can't protect them all the time. Bad people out there in the world do bad things. There is much good in the world but there are some people who prey on good people. I am going through so many emotions over what happened to her and those other girls. Mainly anger that he was even on the streets 3 minor children how the fuck hell was his bond even low enough to bond out before trial? I am having a hard time wrapping my mind around this. I am also angry there are gun free zones in this country where we have the rights to bear arms. Guns for young women are equalizers, they are rarely ever deployed but a woman having one, can stop a crime from happening, can stop her from being a victim. It is why I taught my kids to shoot so they wouldn't have to be a victim but then I had to send her to school where it is a "Gun-Free" zone. It is not the school's fault I know this, but this thing where it is accepted that the 2nd amendment doesn't matter in some places is crazy.
