"Girl's" life saved...I thought I was going to read about a child, not a 22 year old! A very, very stupid adult 22 year old. Not giving up her purse to an armed robber! She could be dead! Let's not make light of her stupidity. The "moral" of the story is doing just that, joking about large, full purses saving lives. She was just plain stupid.

This dumb b*tch just got lucky!!! Bullet coulda gone right through that purse

I know where this was. At MTSU in murfreesboro, tn, Every week I hear about crime on their campus. It sounds like they need to step up security. Murfreesboro, is not as safe as it appears.

I actually know this "girl" because she's my sorority sister at the university we attend. In no way is she "stupid." She was not aware that the robber was carrying a gun at the time of her attack. It wasn't until after he yanked the cell phone out of her hands that he pulled out the gun and randomly fired at her while running away. She's extremely lucky and we all know that. But believe me, this robber was an idiot because this girl does not take crap and I'm glad she put up a fight! Just goes to show how tough girls can be.

she wasnt stupid, people like you who dont fight back are stupid. Its because people dont fight back that criminals get away with everything these days, if more people were like her and fought back the world would be a safer place.

A thought: on 9/11, the passengers of the flights that crashed into the twin towers cooperated with their captors; those of Flight 93 did not. Yes, they all died, but since that time, how many airline disasters have been averted because everyday ordinary people are now stepping up and saying, "NO!" to criminals? The Flight 93 passengers sure taught me a lesson. Since when do criminals deserve our cooperation? We're all going to die some day anyway; it's how you live and what you take a stand for while you're here that counts.

Maybe it wasn't the bag at all. Ever think that it could have been a small clutch and had the same result. Sounds to me like she had a higher power watching out for her. God is way bigger than any purse, maybe we should be thanking him instead of an oversize purse.

All of the preceeding comments are well taken, but how many thought that possibly the bag large enough to contain an office might have been the reason for the incident?

hooray for brave sturdents and big purses, but think first about saving your life befor tempting a armed robber.
your granny wisdom.

wheres your head girl you worry about a stuip big bag rather then your own life get out of town girl your cookoo

LOL what a crock, maybe if she wasn't carrying her LIFE in that bag, she wouldn't have drawn so much attention to herself as a potential target! I'm glad she's okay and the robber didn't get away, and I give her props for her bravery, but man...only carry the essentials if you can!

As a college student, I was often on campus from early morning until well after dark. I too, had to carry 'my life' around campus with me, as I rode the bus to and from school and could not go home easily. Do not mistake this for being 'stupid'..It is a necessity at times. I do agree that fighting back is not always the answer...At 5 foot zip, and not much over 100 pounds soaking wet, I doubt I would have fought back successfully, had the same thing happened to me. However I can understand why she did fight back...to most college students, a cell phone, laptop and palm pilot are not easily replaceable items...textbooks also cost money to replace....not to mention the wallet and its contents...I am just glad this woman is all right after this incident.
