    I'm guessing she had a standard 30 day temporary restraining order that isn't extended if there's no follow-up in court.

    Such a total nightmare, getting involved with a psycho and having this happen. I'm grateful the alleged killer didn't harm the room mate but it was most likely because the room mate fled.

    He's out on bail now. The roommate better move and go into hiding.

    I literally cannot believe they let him bail out.

    I hate reflecting on this but years ago I dealt with a very mentally unstable guy and I was in fear of meeting a similar fate. Lucky for me the red flags were fast and furious so I limited my dealings with him ASAP.

    Thankfully he's been re-arrested and charged with murder and first degree burglary. He's now being held without bail. Unbelievable that they even let him out in the first place. It's a really unfortunate situation. I've had to file a restraining order in the past and sadly, they don't do much.

    With all due respect, it's just impossible for law enforcement or the courts to be able to protect everyone. The only thing you can do is protect yourself by having a gun and be willing to use it when you feel threatened.

    I'm the furthest away from being a gun guy but I have done some research and talked to a few guys who know about guns. You figure if you don't shoot much at the range and you don't plan on ever using it for long periods of time a small revolver is just fine. I say revolver because a hand gun with a magazine could have problems with the internal components when they sit for long long periods of time.

    On a side note my elderly mom is in the process of getting her concealed carry permit. She knows some guy around her age who knows all about guns and he's helping her pick out a good gun that a female of her strength can use. I also know a female cop and she told me she don't travel or live anywhere where she can't carry concealed.

    I just found an article this morning about the "50 shades of grey" phenomenon where men who kill female partners are getting off easy claiming it was rough sex gone wrong. Disgusting.

    You know it’s not just these murders happening that are absolutely sickening but the fact there is a community of males that often divert the issue and blame the woman. Clearly misogyny is rampant in this day and age.

    More high profile ones. I don’t think it was any less common before. It’s just that, when it happens in a trailer park in rural Arkansas, or amongst a migrant family, to any type of sex worker, etc., the attitude towards it is much more nonchalant and dismissive.

    This, and IMO.....

    Social media has made it that celebrities have way more public influence than a lot of reasonable people you or me might know in everyday life.

    Amie's involvement with Drew Carey brought attention to her tragic murder.

    Women who shoot their abusers in self defense get more jail time than the abuser does for murdering them.

    Yes, it is a fact that women do NOT get EQUAL PROTECTION under the law. Men are allowed to rape, beat & kill us without worry about going to prison, or get very short sentences for violent crimes against women.

    Cops are 95% men, the laws & enforcement of it ALL give men the benefit of doubt & believe the women pushed them to it. It is a system of Predators protecting Predators.

    ONLY 10% of rape cases are investigated. Cops have zero problems with letting hundreds of thousands of rapist & potential killers get away with crimes as long as the victims are female.

    If there is a gun in the home, even if it belongs to the woman,she is more likely to be killed with it rather than the man. So your theory that all women need to do is have a gun is bullshit

    BUT ONCE AGAIN IT IS WOMEN BEING TOLD TO CHANGE & BLAMING THEM INSTEAD OF MEN CHANGING

    I mean no disrespect to your mother but this sounds terrifying. Someone just becoming a gun owner in there later years is scary because things like your eyesight, reflexes and basic motor skills begin to decline with age. Innocent people could find themselves getting struck by a bullet. And then there are the innocent people who meant no harm at all who were profiled by a nervous person with a gun. These things may not apply to her but are you gonna step in to make sure your mother isn't being coached by a bad influence?

    I am an actual gun owner with gun skills and these days I feel more compelled to renew my license to counteract the Nervous Nancy's and the Jumpy Jimmy's. Sometimes I just wanna be able to go out at night and not have someone think I'm following them or up to no good because I made eye contact.

    I have had moments where I didn't feel safe in certain places and I know most of us have. I posted about one incident on here before that caused me to change my entire routine. Even with that experience I'm not comfortable with people thinking that having a gun is the answer.
