Reply #22: Violence happens and...

you can do something about it. Sounds corney but join a program through the police. My mother was robbed at gunpoint in front of me the night before Halloween when I was about 10. My mom took a long time to deal with it, but everyone going to this group counseling thing through the police helped and it was free. Violence has no color anyone could have robbed you anyone. It just so happens he was black so you might be like my mom and freak out around blackmen for about a month until your emotions settle about this whole event. My mom screamed at the top of her lungs a few times after she got robbed at work b/c a black man was walking behind her and she noticed his color! She apoligized and explained what happen to her and he understood, but she was jumpy for a while.

I am certainly glad he didn't shoot, I hope you get your money back!!
