Disturbing Scenes People Witnessed As Children

13.

Parents and I lived next door to a biker’s house. His girlfriend runs into our house and locks the front door behind her. She was hysterical and covered in blood. Biker dude starts banging on the door. Tells my dad through the door to let him in, if he has to break in, he’ll kill me and my mom in front of my dad. At that point I remember my mom picking me up and running upstairs to their bedroom. Mom gets on the phone with 911, has bleeding girlfriend take me into the bathroom and lock the door. Guy fired his gun at our house repeatedly before the cops got there. Cops kill guy in our front yard. I still jump at loud noises.

My neighbor 2 houses up from me shot 2 kids in my front yard for looking in his basement window. 1 died, the other paralysed for life. He served 5 years.

I saw roadkill of a dead pregnant opossum. Her fetal babies spilling out from her ripped open stomach.

A guy getting beat up at school by a bunch of seniors. I avoided the scene as much as I could (I mean, I was like in 2nd grade) but the sounds of the punches and the way that guy begged for mercy…damn.
