ROBBED AT GUNPOINT!!!!!!!!
10:30pm 1/13/05
I had just got off work.I made a decision to go to the local bar,instead of going to practice my drums.(Big Mistake)
12:23a.m. 1/14/05
I was sitting there eating one of those microwaved burgers and in walked three Black guys.One went straight to the counter with his hand inside of his jacket.I could tell that we were about to get robbed!
What was I going to do,Be the saviour and start swinging at people and probably get killed.Nope.....I decided to look at the guy with the gun.....I mean there was a good 10 seconds where he had the gun on the counter and I was still looking at him taking the last bite of my burger ever so slowly.What has this city and world become?
Sid the owner of Jugheads asked,"What's going on guys can I get you something",this question was asked even before the guy drew his 9mm hand gun.Sid started walking away towards the beer cooler....that's when the guy pulled his gun and said,"Psssst.......Hey......Psssst...This is a stick up"!How cheesy can one possibly get.......That is a line right out of hollywood.I mean come on...at least have a little class while robbing somebody...do it with dignity!
One of the guys grabbed me and told me not to move.He drug me to the floor. I wasn't going to resist.....I was like putty.......if I would have resisted they probably would have f@$%ed me up good!He searched my back pockets and tried to search my front pockets,but I told him that was all I had.I was laying on the floor on the cold concrete.The guy next to me got all of his pockets mangled with greedy hands.They took everything from him.Another guy came over and started searching my pockets again.I told him they already took everything,which was a lie.(God please forgive me)So I knew that I had my car keys in my front left pocket,so what!!!!!Big deal!!!If they would have found out....I don't know what would have happened!!!
As I lay there they all were behind the bar just looting like mad men on a shopping spree for cash!I could hear Sid telling them where everything was and just take everything.Just take everything and leave....that's what he said.They took all the money from Sid and his bar and then within seconds they were gone!!!All I know is I am lucky to be alive.I wish I would have had a gun so I could have killed one of there asses!!!!!
On top of all that they took my wallet!It had my little brothers picture in it.He gave that to me when he was eleven years old....and there is no way I can get that back.I would have rather had them take 500 dollars from me then that picture!I feel sorry for Sid and the other guy!!!They took both their car keys and left the cars....Those thieves...I wish they would suffer by an torture so unimagineable!!!!!
I don't know about you,but I think the world is turning into something really bad!Was it already bad,was I to blind to see?
However....Life must go on!!!
Much Love,
