Monique.

Can you set the scene for us what prompted you to take such action where -- you where -- day.

I was inside -- Wal-Mart store getting ready to check out and I saw -- three guys walking and and then just few minutes later walk out each carrying case of beer.

And I told the cashiers and his guys are paying for their Beers some do something.

And she kind of waved to the -- man and no one was doing anything center I just -- watch my purse.

On I left my basket my person.

And took off after a minute.

-- I was originally they can -- get their license -- right or you know make a big scene and then they were getting in the car and leaving and I just rain into the car -- Got on the car -- and -- at and telling them you're not gonna do this you're gonna get away with that.

And they weren't associated about it so it.

It instead of just standing in front of the car Tiananmen square style you climbed on top.

What we think and.

What was going to happen I thought -- Black abstaining in front of the car than I thought well they can run me over.

Yeah I just as saying that any normal human being someone on their cars not gonna pull -- they started the car and then I thought okay.

They don't care and they were laughing they were in the car laughing pretty heavy -- to -- like this before.

Behavior that you would ever imagine yourself doing.

Why did -- surprise you yes stepping in and saying no that's not right yes I have and I.

And you wanted to take action itself that you -- here you're anti crime from the that's right it wasn't the beer wasn't trying to -- protect Wal-Mart or anything like that it was just like you can't continue to do this.

Where are we headed.

In society.

When people just think they can walk in and they deserve or that it's their right to to take from others or do whatever they wanna do.

There's no repercussion yeah and the irony thing -- first time offenders.

And people are like it's over beer many.

But these were not first time offenders I didn't know at the time.

You know and what what they have done six months from now -- week after this adrenaline high I got away with it yeah well.

And the ironic thing is you say you're sick of the lawlessness lawless is is your last name but your action dig cost -- got hurt a bit right.

Yes I did I and have two black guys now -- and is and breezes.

But would you do it again.

Not probably to that extreme.
