@10, et al:

But you don't shoot that many rounds at that range and really not hit anything.

Anyone who thinks this is true has never been to a gun range when the dipshits show up with their AKs (or any other gun that can squirt a week's worth of their wages downrange in 5 minutes).

I'm guessing 'stranglehold between her thighs' = triangle choke, which suggests the sailor in question was a jujitsu practitioner.
Awesome story all around.

Back in the 70s, when my family was traveling hippie-style through India, my then 15-year-old big sister knocked more than one groper flat on his ass. Also awesome, although I'm sure she would have greatly preferred having no reason to do so.

@46, 82, etc.: That was the first thing I thought of while reading this, too. Then: She needs to get help. Then: He needs to get the fuck out.

Not to make too much light, but I also thought, "OMFG! Crazy dog lady!"

I can't think of a better way to convince the school that they were wrong to expel you.

@26: There's a picture, since pulled from most papers' web sites, showing a female EM worker helping two women. I saw it many times before I realized she was checking pulse on the woman in the blue t-shirt, who it's clear was Krystle Campbell. Until I noticed the pulse-check, she looked alive. Once I saw that, it was pretty clear she was not.
