“When you think adventure is dangerous, try routine.

It’s lethal!”

Paulo Coelho

Today, a 65-year-old female career Walmart employee was precipitously attacked and stabbed to death inside her own well-lighted store, at 7:00am, in Lake Elsinore, CA.  She was not “isolated,” as other store staff were present at the time.

The victim, unarmed by corporate edict, died at the scene.

The murderer, who had no connection with the victim, is a 29-year-old man, a multiple-convicted felon, out on parole.  He “turned himself in” to police a short time later.

This murderous attack did not happen late at night, nor in “the bad part of town,” nor was the victim doing anything other than going about her legitimate routine

Comment:

1) Alertness, awareness, and personal readiness must not be limited to parking lots and dark alleys, late at night!

2) Particularly in CA, what we laughingly call our “criminal justice system” is well and truly broken, as leftist politicians openly promote violent crime, and protect violent criminals.

3) Most Walmarts and similar stores have knives for sale on the shelf, that anyone can pick up.  Being “inside a store” is no guarantee of personal safety, as we see!

4) Woke corporate “officials” say they are “heartbroken,” but of course they will still not allow employees to be armed with any species of self-defense kit.  A glaring exception is made, of course, for their own bodyguard staffs.

5) When you naively believe self-serving security fairy-tails, promoted by amoral woke hypocrites and mealy-mouthed corporate commissars, then the foregoing fate can be yours too!
