90 year old woman shot herself in the chest when...
Edited on Sun Oct-05-08 12:46 PM by Heather MC
OMG just heard on MSNBC
a 90 year old woman shot herself in the chest when the sheriffs came to issue her an eviction notice on her home, because of foreclosure.

She will survive and the bank has decided to forgive the debt

so that's all it takes for compassion from the banking industry a bullet to your heart

3. Umm a gross miss use of a perfectly good gun?
Or perhaps the fact that she survived is proof there is a GOD
and God Bless Him

5. Thank you for your post
i sent an email to the station asking if she was going to be ok, asking for her name because I wanted to help her but at the time her name hadn't been released. I was concerned she might not have any family and no one to help her.
