THIS IS THE BEST CRAIGSLIST POSTING I'VE EVER READ, BAR NONE!


To the Guy Who Mugged Me Downtown (Downtown, Sarasota)

I was the white guy with the black Burrberry jacket that you demanded I hand over shortly after you pulled the knife on me and my wife. You also asked for my wife's purse and earrings. I hope you somehow come across this Craigs list message. I'd like to a pologize.

I didn't expect you to crap your pants when I drew my pistol after you took my jacket. Truth is, I was wearing the jacket for a reason that evening, and it wasn't that cold outside. You see, my wife had just bought me that Kimber 1911 .45 ACP pistol for Christmas, and we had just picked up a shoulder holster for it that evening. Beautiful pistol, eh? It's a very intimidating weapon when pointed at your head, isn't it?

I know it probably wasn't a great deal of fun walking back to wherever you'd come from with that brown sludge flopping about in your pants. I'm sure it was even worse since you also ended up leaving your shoes, cellphone, and wallet with me. I couldn't have you calling up any of your buddies to come help you try to mug us again. I took the liberty of calling your mother, or "Momma" as you had her listed in your cell, and explaining to her your situation. I also bought myself some gas on your card. I gave your shoes to one of the homeless guys over by Vinnie Van Go Go's, along with all of the cash in your wallet, then I threw the wallet itself in a dumpster.

I called a bunch of phone sex numbers from your cell. They'll be on your bill in case you'd like to know which ones. Alltel recently shut down the line, and I've only had the phone for a little over a day now, so I don't know what's going on with that. I hope they haven't permanently cut off your service. I was about to make some threatening phone calls to the DA's office with it. Oh well.

So, about your pants. I know that I was a little rough on you when you did this whole attempted mugging thing, so I'd like to make it up to you. I'm sure you've already washed your pants, so I'd like to help you out. I'd like to reimburse you for the detergent you used on the pants. What brand did you use, and was it liquid or powder? I'd also like to apologize for not killing you and instead making you walk back home humiliated. I'm hoping that you'll reconsider your choice of path in life. Next time you might not be so lucky. If you read this message, email me and we'll do lunch and laundry. Peace!- Ray

Nice!! I thought that only happened in the movies? Nothing like bringing a knife to a gun fight, that's classic!

Damn skippy, I've had to pull my .357 once on a rather unsuspecting individual under similar circumstances. Somehow he changed his mind when he noticed that "little red dot" marking the "spot" over his heart. I managed to convice him I really didn't have an issue with pulling the trigger so I can relate lmao.

Classic.

Just Classic...



The best lessons in life are either painful, humiliating, or expensive!

awesome...

Finally someone gets what they deserve without being shot!

I HOPE that is a true story!

I Liked it a lot!

I got the email last week, I have looked on snopes.com and don't see anything about it. So hopefully it is true.

A true story like this is just priceless.

Kinda reminds me of that retired Marine that was in a store and a couple of guys came in to rob the store. He took care of that situation pretty handily. It was in the news last year, great story.
