what happened to her was horrifying. I can't imagine how it felt to be ganged up by 5 masked men in a foreign country; gagged and tied up alone. she probably thought they were going to kill her. I feel badly that it happened to her. she will probably have a lot of trauma because of this. I'm glad she is okay and that her children weren't with her.

Eh, I guess you're as bad as I am reading between the rows and take everything literally. Also snipping off your post because that picture made little whatsoever point if at all. Also if you decided to hate on me from the beginning I don't see why you bother.

I just think the topic is snore-tastic and people not looking at she actually was out with expensive things and what it seems without lifeguard in a recent dangerous place and people blowing things up way too much. Also if this would have been someone common person they would probably have gotten even more hate and "that's your fault" comments.

Yes it might be a bad thing but they don't really deserve all the fuss about it because they are known, they are not better than anyone else.

Ah(?)
I enjoy reading despite English not being my first language, I just believe you're not as good at explaining your point without trying to make it seem like I'm actually there next to you(the picture was in relation towards you so it served a purpose),especially with your force sarcasm and irony. Those elements just kill what you're trying to bring across and makes you appear as weird. I don't hate you if that's what you're assuming, I can agree to disagree but I'm not going to be spiteful and be like "Sheila is so ****" when that's not the case. Don't take everything literal, take your time.

This situation could've turned even worse and two kids could've grown up with no mother, so we should all be thankful that wasn't the case, even if you absolutely detest the living **** out of kim, being held at gun point isn't funny for anyone, kim is a human being at the end of the day, and a loving mother, sister, aunt, wife, daughter, imagine if it was your sister, aunt, wife, mother, daughter that this situation happened to? and now i'm pretty sure the main concern here isn't the jewellery, i'm pretty sure kim couldn't care less, but she cares that she was gagged, tied up, locked in a bathroom and was begging for her life as she got a gun pointed at her, think of that trauma, regardless to her being okay or not. People need to stop being the 'edgy cool kid' and grow the **** up.

I don't know why people are bringing up what she owned. What you're carrying on you and what you're wearing do not play a hand in whether you "deserve" to be attacked. Does it put you at more risk? Maybe, but blaming a victim of any assault for the assault makes no sense. Plus she wasn't just walking around with it as people are suggesting, she was inside a hotel or her friend's residence (I can't remember which).

Neither is mine, but since you started every reply with something more or less personal? And still I don't really think that picture made any good, but whatever.

Also I'm not trying to pull off something edgy or try to be a cool salty kid, I just don't think the fuss about all this is deserved nor interesting to care much about when people treat them like angels or something. If that would be a common people social media happening and it was a sassy girl it would have happened to the hate would be on another level. They are not better simply because they are known, and yeah you shouldn't go out with that much of a blingy show-off nor alone or be in public with it.

While it might have been sad, the attention is not needed.

Exactly, people are literally saying it is her fault because she possessed that much jewellery on hand, she could've had $9 million or $900 worth of jewellery and probably still would've gotten robbed nevertheless.

That's terrifying. No one deserves that. Let's not act like she's a demon for being a business women who can market herself.

I mean, so far everyone who comment are just more concerned about her safety than her celebrity status. Same as how something can happen to you, me, or about anyone, someone would have concern. I understand your ideology that she's no better than everyone else and your examples are compelling but I just think you assume everyone was like "OH no not KIM" when it's merely "oh I hope she's alright, I hope her family is alright, etc" same as how you can look at the news or even hear something bad happening to a friend/family/associate and be concern about their well being. Of course the thought would easily be replaced with something else but as Nvll said, it's simply human compassion to care.

I guess you're almost mentioning how it shouldn't be anybody's business since she's a celebrity but that idea would just get counterattack with everyday life and about any other media outlook. Orz
 
Despite the fact that I couldn't care less about celebrities or see the point in spending 10mil+ on jewelry, what happened was horrible and no one deserves to be held at gunpoint and robbed. For the people that think it's funny or see that she deserved it, I worry about your well being and like to see if you'd still think the same if you were in a similar situation.
 
Guys I just found out my brother ate my leftover tso's chicken, I guess I deserved it for putting it in the fridge
 
i like how people are focusing on how she didnt need the 10 million when its been stated repeatedly both kanye and her are just glad shes alive and could care less about the jewelry. they arent sitting around upset about lost jewelry, theyre upset bc kims life was at danger.

she was bound and gagged at gunpoint. they couldve kidnapped, killed, done anything they wanted to her in those moments. im so thankful it was only a robbing, kim isnt TOO important to me but i do kind of like her and in general the situation has shaken me up a bit. im so glad shes okay, it couldve gone SO much worse SO easily. thank god it didnt. the thing is, they couldve tried to rob any rich person, or even rob the apt when no one was in it, but they robbed it when kim was in there. kim mustve thought the whole time they had much worse plans of what to do with her- why else would they target such a famous person?? celebs have to live in constant fear of this kind of stuff and it was basically her worst nightmare coming true. i hope she recovers well from all this and im glad her kids werent there bc that wouldve been traumatizing for them
 
Alright, lets all just calm down and stop arguing over Kim Kardashian. She survived, that's the point, right? Nothing to argue about! :eek:
 
tbh I love Kim and I'm so glad she's okay. that must have been so terrifying.

I think it's a load of **** to be honest! People will do anything for fame, it's a disgrace. There's no way she would have been left on her own in that apartment without a bodyguard. She has bodyguards with her 24/7 so can't understand for the life of me how they managed to get in. It also bugs me why you would carry ?9M worth of jewelry with you to Paris, a place that has previously known to be attacked and is obviously an unsafe area. Why target her when there are other rich and famous people in Paris as it's Paris fashion week?

Ok, I need to stop before I explode!

Correct me if I'm wrong but I believe she was actually in a hotel at the time of the incident? :confused:

Private apartment. They're regulars in Paris.

I'd just like to leave this article here.

I may not care that much about her, but I'm glad they only took the jewelry and not her life.
 
Just putting it out there that KK didn't deserve to be robbed at gunpoint, no matter how rich she is nor how much jewelry she has dangling around her body or whatever. Imagine it from a perspective leading to rape; women who show more skin aren't asking for it, and neither are they more deserving to be raped. Same goes for KK-- she wasn't asking for it no matter how much money she has, and moreso she didn't deserve it, like any human being.

Tbh it isn't funny, so if you think it's funny getting held at gunpoint and being traumatized, you're just lsick.
