I believe “car jacking” would be a better descriptor of the incident. Posted in its entirety: Local Memphis

“I’m taking the car!” BANG!! “Here, take this instead!”
“I’m coming in yo house!” BANG!! “The coroner will roll you out!”
Memphis, like every other demonrat run city is a pure sh^thole…and getting worse everyday. Got Family just across the line in MS. They only go there to take one of the babies to St Jude’s Hosp. Those folks did a wonderful job, saving that baby’s life when she was born with brain cancer. Family never goes unless they are in a least full rifle squad strength. And Tally FL ain’t no better.
I got the dumplin’ pot going ‘beans, bring us some squirrels. Or would you prefer Tree Rat Gumbo? Plink Plink Plink
Y’all pay attention. Today is Friday and the TAH Friday Weekend Open Thread will be showing up sometime this afternoon around 1600 hours, if the past history is anything to go on. I will only leave it laying there, orphaned, for a 30 count before typing and a 30 count before posting. Stay alert, I may and or may not be lurking around when it drops.
I can’t imagine how Memphis can get any worse. About 30 years ago my daughter had an appointment at St Jude’s. We got up early and decided to walk the about 20 minutes to the hospital. We saw one of the taxi drivers at the hospital who scolded us for walking. He said people get shot around there just for walking where some folks don’t think they should be.
Memphis is a blight on an otherwise great state.
