2 burglars vs. an 83 year old partially blind Woman

Quite an interesting event occurred in Manchester England not too long ago November 10^th to be exact.  Apparently two burglars in there 30’s tried to rob a woman.  You’d think the woman being partially blind and 83 years old would make the robbery that much easier.  Believe it or not this woman fended off the burglars by hitting them with her walking stick.  All these burglars got a way with was a small amount of cash.

 My opinion of this story is it very funny and it just proves that you can’t judge a person from what they look like.  When you think of an 83 year old woman you think of someone helpless.  It truly amazes that she didn’t even need help from the police. She was an enforcer all on her own.  I don’t think these burglars knew what they were getting into, but can you blame them what burglar expects to be wailed by a walking stick, it really hurts you know.  This grandmother must have been practicing that swing for 83 years.  I would want to mess with her either and I would have run away too.  What makes this story even more amazing is the fact that this woman was partially blind too.  It certainly didn’t affect her accuracy as these guys probably left in a hurry.  In conclusion this story is awesome it’s nice to see some justice being served up.  It will teach these guys not to pick on an 83 year olds anymore because they might just have walking stick and no one want to be wailed with that thing. I need to shake this woman’s hand because she overcame all the stereotypes that can follow a partially blind 83 tear old woman and did it in style.
