RUINED MY DAY, TOO
It took me an hour and fifteen minutes to get home because of this shit. I'm all about me, and my convenience, and this woman ruined my drive home.
Hostage standoff ends in death on I-95A man is dead and a woman is in custody after police said the female motorist shot her passenger during a hostage standoff on Interstate 95.
The situation had both directions of travel shut down on the interstate earlier this afternoon and southbound traffic remained congested at rush hour. Police said they planned to reopen southbound traffic about 5:30 p.m.A Florida Highway Patrol trooper first pulled over a green convertible Camaro with Tennessee plates on Interstate 10 at Lane Avenue. The driver fled after giving the trooper her driver's license, then pulled over again at the Cassat Avenue exit, according to police. There, she began pointing a pistol at a passenger and got back on the road, police said.
The woman continued to I-95 southbound, where she again pulled off onto the shoulder. As police negotiated with her over a loudspeaker, she pointed the gun at herself at one point and at troopers at another point and then shot the passenger in the head in front of police.
She then laid down on the highway and waited for police to take her into custody.
Now, obviously, there is more to this story than the initial report indicates. I can't wait to find out the real deal, if for no other reason than I can savor the story in my mind the next time I'm stuck in beep and creep.

Only 2 times since World War II has a woman been executed who killed ONLY A MAN. The few women who are executed have killed either a child or another woman.
I hope Oxygen and Lifetime make a tv movie about Women Who are Crazy as Shit and the Men Who Die Because of It.
Of course, all you men who've taken up with a Crazy Bitch, at one time or another, raise your hands. I thought so.
Of course, as has become customary in this neck of the woods, she worked her way to MY neighborhood before she did the deed.
And Jack...hostile much?

Did you know that a woman cannot be charged with rape?
Ever heard of W.I.C. (Women and Infant Children)? How come no M.I.C.?
6 million men have died in our nation's wars and we have to listen daily to how badly women are treated. They rarely have to suffer the consequences of their actions. Ask a famale co-worker for a date? If she likes you, great. If not, it's a hostile work environment or, worse, you are a stalker.
Scared? Give me a freaking break!
When's the last time you were genuinely concerned for your safety? When is the last time that you suffered a physical or sexual assault at the hands of a woman?
When is the last time that you heard of a company that paid their female employees more than they paid their male employees?
There are injustices on all fronts, all races, religions, and in both sexes, but to even attempt to justify a statement such as "It's a woman's world" is utterly nonsensical bull.
Wrong.Fucking.Tree
