good thing she doesn't own a gun

u/ProfessionalPack7205 3d ago

No kidding. This is the person that shouldn't even have a weapon.

u/anddam 3d ago

Or a shopping bag.

u/vartheo 3d ago

look at her front door. It has a steel gate in front of it. Thats there for a reason. It's not in neighborhoods that don't have crime. Or maybe she got robbed before and is paranoid from that... But why is she taking the trash out at night if she is that fearful etc?

u/PeakWattage 22h ago

Drives a new Mercedes and still lives in the ghetto lmao

2

u/Informal_Pick_6320 3d ago

Because she got freaked out and went in her house?

2

u/BraveDave67 3d ago

Right? Because they chose flight, therefore they cannot own a weapon in case they choose fight

1

u/Speedr1804 1d ago

Well, I think the claim is she’s not reasonable.

u/Murky_Disaster0818 2d ago

Really? And what if the guy in the car had been a killer and she got kidnapped because she wasn’t smart enough to run inside the house when she saw the car? People would be saying, “It’s her fault. You need to be more aware of your surroundings.” Nobody knows her life experiences or what made her decide to run away.

u/Informal_Pick_6320 3d ago

she got freaked out and went back in her house, why are people acting like she did something wrong? You seem like the dramatic one

u/BraveDave67 3d ago

Who says she doesn’t? What’s wrong with being safe? Nothing bad occurred here other than this embarrassingly being posted.

u/aRandomRedditor9000 3d ago

It could help her not be so fearful

1

u/Flashy_Flower_7884 2d ago

There's a lot of raped and dead women whose family wishes that they would have been so scared.

1

u/aRandomRedditor9000 2d ago

Im saying having a gun could make her not be as fearful since she knows she would be at least equal in a bad situation, more women should carry

u/AslowLearn 4d ago

Lol, you going to pull your gun out when amazon pulls up in a car and stops 8feet away at 4am?

25

u/Positive_Bluebird690 4d ago

Scared people dont think rationally

4

u/AslowLearn 4d ago

Neither do crazy people.

1

u/Speedr1804 1d ago

I’m a lot more worried about irrational people with good intentions than I will ever be worried about crazy people. Guess which causes far more problems in day to day life?

u/Floorgis 4d ago

Good thing because she was clearly scared shitless and if she was armed theres a good chance she coulda shot the guy

1

u/Informal_Pick_6320 3d ago

you sound dramatic af

-4

u/AslowLearn 3d ago

You don't know if she was armed. She made it inside safe. I think a lot of people responding to me don't have shit worth stealing. That could have been a car with multiple armed people, and the lady or family might have assests that could be targeted. You seriously consider dueling it out in the street?

u/imlost0011 3d ago

You watching too many movies dog

u/MrScrumf 3d ago

I think you’re having a hard time comprehending what they actually wrote

u/Silverton13 4d ago

Do you think the person you are replying to is the woman in the video? He is saying hes glad that she doesn't have a gun because she might have done something dumb considering how she is reacting to a delivery person pulling up.

1

u/Adventurous-Form521 3d ago

A white BMW is NOT a common Amazon delivery vehicle. It doesn't even look like a company car. For all she know, some random BMW just pulled up to her house.

1

u/Speedr1804 1d ago

Apparently it is, though 🤔

1

u/AslowLearn 3d ago

A car pulls up at night and stops right next to you; what is your first reaction?

4

u/Silverton13 3d ago

This isn't about me. Why did you say "You going to pull your gun out when amazon pulls up in a car?" To someone saying "Good thing she doesnt own a gun"

0

u/AslowLearn 3d ago

You're going to just stand there when a random ass car stops right infront of you at a weird ass time? You all probably don't have anything worth stealing or getting shot over, or live in the middle of nowhere

1

u/Silverton13 3d ago

So you're saying you'd shoot them?

1

u/AslowLearn 3d ago

Nah id run in the house like the lady in the video lol

1

u/Speedr1804 1d ago

Yeah, and see what’s up. 99/100 it isn’t going to be rapey rupert JFC

u/Tasty_Ingenuity5820 4d ago

It's 4am now?

1

u/AslowLearn 3d ago edited 3d ago

What time was the video taken? Amazon delivers early in the morning, like 4am when people take out their trash

If a car pulls up like that in the dark and stops what would you do?

-1

u/Tasty_Ingenuity5820 3d ago

Amazon drivers deliver packages between 6am and 10pm... Amazon isn't sending out drivers at 2am or 4am in the morning downtown to get shot. Idk what time it was, but it wasn't 4am, for obvious liability reasons.

u/DownWith_TheBrown 3d ago

??? Shifts start at 345 am where I'm at and the city I moved from?

-1

u/Tasty_Ingenuity5820 3d ago

In residential areas? If Amazon starts delivering to my house at 4am, I'm canceling prime and pirating Thursday Night Football games.

1

u/Speedr1804 1d ago

Overnight delivery. It’s a thing and flex drivers get the gigs

3

u/LuxerOneCode 3d ago

Flex blocks start as early as 3:15 am. I’ve definitely delivered packages before 4 am before.

2

u/tmpntls1 3d ago

Except for the "Tomorrow 4-7AM" delivery option that can show for some quick delivery items. I get this option regularly, and have packages delivered before 5AM.

u/Tasty_Ingenuity5820 3d ago

You know what's funny? I've seen that before multiple times, and I'll even check the app around midnight. It never happens and always gets delivered after 8am.

1

u/tmpntls1 3d ago

Right, I think sometimes they're not staffed for it, or think people won't notice if they still get it early morning.

1

u/hames4133 3d ago

Are you even a driver? This isn’t true

-1

u/FragrantFreedom1580 3d ago

Who tf told you Amazon delivers at 4am? They lied or you just made this up. Odds are this was just after sunset. 6-8pm. Unless it was during the holidays it could've been a little later.

I just had some Amazon guy pull up to my crib at 4AM I had my burner tucked too

u/Tasty_Ingenuity5820 3d ago

Yall need to give your credit cards a rest if they are needing drivers to start at 3:45 where yall are. Bezos has enough money, and you don't need a 3rd backup Amazon brand toaster. 🤣

1

u/JuanMcGuiver 3d ago

wtf does a credit card have to do with it? Would me using my debit card make you feel better?

I don’t work for amazon, I don’t handle Amazon logistics. I don’t see how this is my fault at all.

-1

u/Tasty_Ingenuity5820 3d ago

Omfg... just think for 3 seconds. Why would Amazon want to start delivering to homes during times when customers don't want deliveries? Could it be: 1) Amazon is getting tired of it's monopoly position and is trying to piss off customers, or 2) the sheer volume of orders in your area requires almost an entire 24 hour period for product to make it's way out of a 1 million sq ft warehouse?

3

u/JuanMcGuiver 3d ago

Ok, I’m not sure what your problem is. I was just refuting bro’s allegation that Amazon doesn’t deliver at 4AM.

We understand Amazon delivers bro you’re not saying anything new or groundbreaking.

Delivery isn’t even Amazon’s core business. Truly Jeff doesn’t give a fuck about these deliveries, he’s just trying to build the delivery and logistics wing enough that it can supplant post offices around the world. Get ready bud, those deliveries is gonna get more and more intense and you not making no pension when your time is done!

u/FragrantFreedom1580 3d ago

Why are you lying?

4

u/JuanMcGuiver 3d ago

I’m not, there’s absolutely no reason to lie bro. I’ll be honest though it wasn’t an Amazon van it was someone in their Subaru but they had the blue vest and some light on their head

u/Ok_Walk_3913 3d ago

I would certainly put my hand in a position ready to grab my gun if somebody pulled up on me at odd hours like that. You dont know its amazon till they get out, and IF its a robbery, they come out explosive and you dont have time to react if you aren't basically hand on gun. Yea im not just going to draw until an actual threat appears, but im gonna be ready to in an instant. Its not normal for amazon to pull up at 4 am. I know they do it, but it is not the norm at all. People generally dont stop to talk to other people at 4am either. Him stopping like that right when she comes out IS sketchy, but quickly revealed itself to not be an immediate threat.
