My dad used to be his paperboy. He always said Rogers was exactly as great in real life as he was on TV. He would come out and chat when he could, talked my dad through his first heartbreak, tipped really well... Just an all around amazing guy, apparently. 

I think you’ve forgotten about the mass shooting at the First Baptist Church in Sutherland Springs, Texas in 2017.

Well, the president has already said blamed the incident on a lack of security at places of worship and the fact that the death penalty isn’t used enough. So, I’m guessing no.

Squirrel Hill in Pittsburgh is literally Mister Rogers’ Neighborhood. His house stands three blocks from the synagogue where today’s shooting took place and that little diorama of his community represented the community where this occurred.

is believed to be a while male armed with an AR-15 and multiple handguns.

Yes. I wonder if the jerk that raped me ever ponders what he did all those years ago. I was the last drunk girl in a carload of drunk girls to be taken home that night. I’d known him since grade school. He dragged me out in a bean field and did the deed. He had a friend with him, and he encouraged him to join the…

Is she gonna carry a bow around with her as well? Cause that'd be cool as shit.

But the thing is that they never get reported in the first place.

Close to it. A friend of mine had a stalker for several years. She tried but couldn't get a restraining order against him, despite all the evidence she gave the judge and eyewitness testimony from others. The good news is that my friend is alive and well, and he seems to have given up.

It happens more often than you think, but to regular people who can’t afford gated communities or private security. Like my friend whose stalker became so frighteningly intrusive that she had to pick up and move across the country. Or another who left the country to escape her psycho husband (a well-connected man who…

How can any stalker be declared “mentally stable”? Most shrinks will tell you stalkers are notoriously hard to treat with very, very few success stories. Most stay obsessed the rest of their lives, maybe shift the object of their obsession, but the delusions never go away 

I know people have died - I meant it more rhetorically I guess? My neighbor had a stalker for three years and the police couldn’t do anything. It ended when he killed himself, which is also tragic.

Nope. They are still together, and looking even more alike than ever now that Joe is sporting a beard.  

How the hell is breaking into someone’s home a misdemeanor? Repeatedly? Deport the motherfucker already.

Yeah, it’s horrifying that he gets basically no punishment for any of this. Stalkers are dangerous people and should be locked up for everyone else’s protection!

Being stalked is incredibly terrifying, especially for girls and women. I’ve been there and you just can’t relax. Ever. 

Mind you, he’s not Mexican!

Does someone have to die before they really do something about stalkers? Kendall already lives in a gated community, has security guards. I feel awful for anyone who has these kind of problems, not being able to feel safe as home is the worst.
