Stun Gun For Sale Ads Lead to Protection For Office Worker

“If you don’t take care of yourself, exactly who do you expect to do it for you?”

That’s the question a mild-mannered file clerk asked himself when he saw the ad “Stun Gun For Sale.” He had heard about the assaults in and around the building where he worked, but figured he was safe since he was a pretty big fellow.

Nevertheless, when he spotted the “Stun Gun For Sale” advertisement, he decided to check it out and consider buying a weapon. The clerk took a look at all the models and found one he liked. He threaded his belt through the holster opening and dropped the hem of his coat so the whole thing wouldn’t show. He had opted for one of the super powerful mini stun guns–which is so compact that it can fit into a pack of cigarettes. It is reasonable in price and also has enough volts to drop a bad guy in no time. .

A few days later the elevator to his fifth floor offices balked and then stopped. All office workers were instructed to take the stairs as a method of exiting the building. Groups of employees made their way earthward until very few were left.

At the same time someone was waiting to take advantage of a woman in a vulnerable position. He waited at a slightly open door, listening for the sound of a single pair of feet descending the stairs. He lucked up. He heard a woman in high heels slowly making her way down one flight after another. He waited until she had just passed his hiding place before striking. She had time for one good scream before he clapped a hand over her mouth and threatened to break her neck if she wasn’t quiet. Just then, an armed office worker burst through an open door in time to see the woman being dragged off.

When asked later about the event, he simply said, “He looked like he could have killed her. If I hadn’t acted I would have felt guilty for the rest of my life.” So he applied the stun gun to the bad guy’s tattooed neck long enough for him to turn the woman loose. As she escaped, the police were called and when they arrived, the bad guy was still lying on the floor. He was angry about the stun gun being used on him.

Tough.
