All is well here today. Went outside the prison...We
have to dump our trash and waste. So there I am in the
middle of the road stopping traffic with my weapon.
Someone needs to take a pic. Call me girly again and
see what happens. They'll end up in the poop were
dumping.
Then at the trash site there locals are sitting there
waiting for us because they go through our trash and
save what they find. Sometimes they eat the food. It's
gross. We have stand guard and make sure they don't
charge us. Being female with a weapon is weird to them
so they crowd around me and giggle and whisper. Seely
had to jump out of the truck and they ran quick. He
has a 9mil. They fear that because of Saddam. Even
though my weapon can do more damage they see the
carrier of the 9 mil as power.
It was ok. They want me to go out with they all the
time. I am not sure about risking my life 3 x a week.
Some locals want us here and some don't. The kids
around us warn us when theres trouble. We through food
to them, that's why.
