Yes, ma’am. Queen!
God bless them. This is what men are for. We can’t always protect ourselves. Thank god those men were there ❤️
This is the bravest mom I've ever seen in my life
That all he got?
I am that apartment neighbor who will say something to you if you never take out the trash and I always have to do it, or call you out for loud music after 10pm or smoking in the building. But, I am also the one who, if I hear a loud bang from your apartment, will call or come to your door to make sure you didn't fall, or check on you if you haven't left your apartment for days. People are afraid to be seen as the bad guy, or mean for speaking up. But, it all comes down to being present and being responsible for your own actions. It takes nothing to pay attention and follow your intuition. If something seems off, don't ignore that inner nudge, follow up on it.
zero survival instincts… didnt fight back or attempt to get away, jus curled up into a more convenient travel size package.
Bless this mama bear! ❤❤
Women need to start walk with dogs to protect them
I love new yorkers! ❤❤❤❤! So glad you got your baby girl!!!
The little senior doggo couldn’t do a thing 🥺
should check the front doors there was someone waiting in a car to help him take her
What a great mother😃
W mom
This neighborhood held it deoowwwnn 💪🏾😤
Thank God that they are ok and that everyone worked together to save her daughter and stop him and from hurting anyone else.
this is why I always watch my back! going to the car or anywhere. it’s such a scary world. i’m so glad she has a strong and protective mom and that she wasn’t taken 😢
GOD BLESS YOU MOM.
No situational awareness
they need a bigger dog
Justice system is really blind.. it fails to punish criminals even today
Between the mama bear and Gus ( and the other neighbor) this guy had no chance

She's 18, but to her mum, she is still her baby. She didn't care that her daughter was old enough to deal with the situation. The mother jumped in a heartbeat with no hesitation. Everyone can be a mother, but it takes a special woman to be a mum(mom).
bro came in like spider-man 😭🙏🙏💀
The one time you needed the pittbull to attack, but doesn't.
Only a matter of time until he gives up and decides that nobody can have her if he can't. Laws need to be stricter to prevent that scenario from happening.
Bruh, I'm sure something is going on in that court of law if he didn't plead guilty.
it takes a village.
Every state has a crime victims compensation program. When someone is assaulted they often don't have the money to move. This is often not addressed or funded enough in most compensation programs. Money to provide for the program and services to victims are largely paid from fines, restitution, etc. Those funds were pretty much gutted during Trump's term, and in the last four years, some headway had been made towards replenishment. I don't know what will happen now.
Well dome mom!!!!! 👏👏👏👏👏
Shes not a hero, SHES A MOM!
I swear women sometimes are just as oblivious as toddlers
I would say she needs to carry. But seeing as it's NYC…
Something intrinsically wrong in fabric of society when such acts becomes all too frequent. Needs to be addressed by the system and not necessarily punitive.
🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽
Some men (not all, cause y’all get sensitive with that) are such losers. The biggest danger a woman will most likely experience is from men.
Why don’t you name him in the description notes, but name innocent parties?
A former coworker. How do you go from work banter to this??
Why are there so many disturbed and sick men in the world?
The one time the dog ISN'T a psycho pitbull …………….
Probably a trumper
Evil bstrd
One of the stupidest things a person can do is harm someone within earshot of that person's mother.
You know that guy voted trump 😂
Inspired by Maga
25 going after a 18 year old is crazy
I don't see any comments making generalizations about the perpetrators race.
Where is the Father of the teen?
That's messed up
