Ridiculous story. Doesn’t add up.
I despise NBC, CNN, basically all the fake news outlets but glad to hear about this story. with the worthless liberals, socialists and democrats destroying the country, more instances like this are occurring more often. She might want to upgrade from a chair, 2-3 perps would be difficult to handle unless she has a high capacity chair…
Dang, well go grandma ! A hardy Maine woman is nobody to mess with. And in her Christian spirit she is an inspiration for us all.
That youth sounds mentally challenged and confused by how this was described, and i doubt a violent intent was premeditated …otherwise that frail granny wouldnt had the slightest chance.
A big heart and a great success story. Everybody needs a hug and a meal. Let's put and end to world hunger so they can focus on the real issues.
Sir Lucifer The Great
“Yeah i stay strapped”
pulls out crackers and peanutbutter from my back pocket
Shocker, all the ageism on the internet and this happens 💙🙏🏻💙
Fights off intruders then makes them sandwiches. 🤣 You can't right this.
They used to have bean supper up there, when I lived in Bath.
I especially like the part when she fed the intruder "Saltine Crackers."
I hope they were "Extremely Salty."
Mainers , classic always thinking it wont happened to them cuz its old Maine.
her biological age must be in her 20's😅.. in such great shape
Haha cute old lady
Lamps work really well. Or you can have a knife between mattresses within reach. God bless you.
Well we know that the intruder wasn"t black .. the one of the reporting and interviews is always a dead give away
Let me give you an @$$ whooping chile. Is that your stomach growling? C'mon sit that @$$ down and let me feed ya 😅
A bit off topic but wow, what a pretty woman. Most of us didn’t look that good in our 60s.
Proud 🎉of her 🙏
WOW!! Grateful she's safe, still has her humor & humanity.. So many STRONG lessons for today in this little snippet!! 🤯
I also hope the boy is given food security, crime diversion & any necessary social service resources – along with his punishment.
Surprised that you can't be around your own uh, people?
Fed him crackers and peanut butter. That’s so grandma of her. 😂
ATTENTION EVERYONE IF YOU FIND YOURSELF IN DANGER SAY JESUS JESUS JESUS JESUS JESUS JESUS OVER AND OVER AND IF YOU CAN TAKE PHYSICAL ACTION AT THE SAME TIME. JESUS SAVES. JESUS LOVES YOU. 🙏❤️
She's so strong. Physically and more importantly, mentally. Good for her.
She is my hero
That's like my biggest fear and here's this 87 yo woman talking about it so peacefully, even laughing at the end of the segment. Bless her heart.
Imagine being a teenager and being so hungry that you had to break in someone’s home. I hope he gets help.
Hope to be as good as her at 87 if I live that long
Reminds me of that lady that was assaulted in Florida and said "Man, I could go for beer right now" as it was happening. Kid you not the guy stopped and they had a beer then he left.
If she's not a saint idk who is.
looks like its started…
😂😂😂😂😂😂 period
Seems like something straight out of an Zombie Apocalypse TV show
Love you Marjorie, remind me of my late mother, stay feisty and stay safe.
No description of the perp? That means they don’t need sunblock
