Guys, think back to the last pizza guy who delivered to your house.
Was he by any chance a pimply faced teenager himself? So he went to
the football game and took some photos of girls... Dangerous pervert
that he was... Good thing the cops were on the job...
Mrs Reed, I suggest you lock the doors and crawl under the bed, maybe
you will be safe there. However watch out for the dust bunnies they
are dangerous indeed. And by the way, the guy is not a dangerous
pervert until 12 members of a jury and a judge say he is. Until that
time you are guilty of libel, and he can and should sue the shit out
of you.
I am quite aware that the particular individual isn't guilty of anything
until the jury says so, and if you read my comments you'll note I
carefully said IF he is, then ...
And IF all he did was take some harmless pictures of girls at a football
game, he shouldn't be "harassed" (obviously) just like Shel shouldn't.
All I've been trying to say is, MAYBE it got as far as it did because
his pictures and his story were not as innocent as you guys would prefer
to assume.
Odds are that any pizza delivery guy isn't dangerous, or a pervert, or a
dangerous pervert. A small chance exists that he is. (And IF he is ...
insert my "dangerous pervert" remarks here. They don't apply to the vast
majority of harmless, law-abiding citizens, even the ones who deliver
pizza and attend football games.)
Odds are any guy pulled over for a missing licence plate isn't a mass
murderer. But at least one was.
Odds are any quiet fellow who keeps his apartment so messy it smells
bad, isn't a serial killer and cannibal. But at least one was.
Odds are any strangely-dressed characters walking down the street don't
have a kidnapped teen girl in their group. But at least one did.
Are you going to disbelieve that these situations actually occurred,
just because they're rare?
