Holy sh!t, I would totally be bawling like crazy out of a mixture of sadness, guilt (for not being there even though it was impossible to help), rage, and fury. What a strong woman you have there brother!! Someone had to step up to the plate to account for the tour companies negligence and she sure did. Unlike the guys that were there with the group. Its in no way wrong to expect a refund and payment for the stolen items. And oh yeah it would be very hard for me to not want to go right away and buy a ticket to Paris and exact revenge. I would definitely be fighting the urge kill them. Especially everytime I looked at her and saw her pain. My prayers and blessings to your family.
I agree that your not expecting too much. I would turn that over to an attorney and let them focus on that. You should focus on your wife and her well being (physical and mental). Make sure she understands that what she endured may well have saved the lives of some of the children in her care. Prayers are being sent up for her and you. Remember, vengeance is God's.
Words can't express how pissed off I would be if that happened to my family. Sorry to hear that and I hope she's ok.
Thanks guys. I appreciate the prayers for her so much! It's definitely going to take some time. I am extremely thankful to have her back home and I know that the thugs will eventually get what they deserve. Sometimes I wish God worked just a little faster though.
I wish that it had been here in the states, she were carrying a firearm, and she shot the bastards dead.
That's a terrible story. My prayers out to both of you. I hope you quickly get at least a refund from the tour company, compensated for the stolen property and justice is dealt to the thugs. I'd have a tough time not going back over there all Taken-ish.
I already asked her if she would recognize them if she saw them again. Unfortunately, her answer was, "no". Not sure I believe her, I think she knew what I was thinking at the time. Ironically, they watched the movie Taken on the long flight over. Thanks to all again for the positive thoughts and prayers. There is truly strength in prayer and positive vibes.
That was the first thing that popped in my head, too. Honestly not sure what I would do if I were in your situation. But I'm sure the thought of dealing out some vigilante justice would cross my mind.
Even if it were two completely different thugs that you polished your boots on, whats the loss. These **** sacks just wait till next week till a new bunch of tourist come along and they mug them, same **** different day. I would change their diet for them by kicking out their teeth then their kidneys, maybe a vegan diet would teach them some respect for our women. Even if they got over the pissing blood, THE eating of soup for the rest of their lives could serve as a reminder not to piss off Americans, no MATTER WHERE YOU ARE!
I went to work today and talked to some of my co-workers about this since I read it last night. They all feel the same way that we all do on here. Cool thing is they said they would keep you in their prayers even though none of them hunt or use this site. Just thought it would be nice for you to know that your family has prayers coming in from outside the site as well as inside. I hope things are going better for you and your wife and you are still in my prayers.
Dave I am very sorry to hear this. I hope she recovers both mentally and physically from the whole situation. Thoughts and prayers go out to your entire family.
The support and prayers are very much appreciated. It was another difficult day for her. She is pretty depressed now. I know it is all part of the process. It is just going to take some time. Lucky thing is, she has time to recover. Some people are not that fortunate. We will take something positive out of this eventually. Thanks again, sincerely.
Fletch, you and your wife are in our prayers. I'm so sorry that she went through that. I talked to my wife about it and just thinking of how helpless she must have felt and you too when you found out had me teary eyed. What a couple of lowlifes, you are absolutely not wrong for the way you feel...I feel the same way and it wasn't my family. Can't believe the tour guide and other men were so low caliber as well. I hope things work out with the tour company but more importantly I pray for your wife and family to heal and get past this.
