Our first story this morning comes from Texas<\/a> and expounds on our lesson that you shouldn’t try to victimize the elderly, because we’re too old to fight, we’ll just shoot you. 74-year-old Jewell Turner was sitting in her van when a fellow tapped on her window. When she rolled it down, he pointed a knife at her and demanded the contents of her purse;<\/p>\n

\u201cHe said, \u2018I don\u2019t want to hurt you, but I want your money. And I will hurt you if I have to,\u2019\u201d Turner said.<\/p>\n

Turner said she told the man she only had some pocket change with her \u2013 $1.62 she counted after the ordeal \u2013 but he demanded what she had in her purse.<\/p>\n

It was in that moment, Turner said, that she remembered she came prepared for an encounter such as this.<\/p>\n

The widow first thought to pull out the pocket knife she always keeps with her for personal protection.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt\u2019s an old knife, belonged to my husband,\u201d Turner said.<\/p>\n

Instead, Turner remembered that earlier that very day she felt the need to bring her small pistol along with her.<\/p>\n

\u201cI seen the gun laying there. And I figured that would work better than the knife,\u201d Turner said. \u201cI just reached down, got the gun and turned around and pointed it to his face. And I told him, I said, \u2018You back off, or I\u2019ll blow your head off.\u2019 And his eyes got big and he just backed up and he took off walking down the street like nothing happened.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
