Re: Kim Kardashian robbed at gunpoint!
Posted by FTM427
i noticed that none of the Kardashians have posted anything on social media since last night (I just looked at Snapchat & Instagram). I wonder if this will change how much and what they post. I looked at Kim's Instagram and she posted a closeup of her ring 4 days ago, then last night she was posting how she was in for the night and face timing her brother, at the same time that her sisters are posting videos of themselves out dancing. That family posts so much and in real time, someone could have figured out that she was alone. This is a good reminder that you never know who is watching on social media, not just celebrities but regular people too!
God hopefully they will go away now. Please, please....

I find it really sad that when something happens to another human that we are still attacking her no matter who it is. To blame that she flaunts her wealth is the same things as saying a woman wearing skimpy clothing "asked for it". It was not a publicity stunt. She doesn't need to boost her popularity and if it was the whole family would have been tweeting as soon as it happened.. They also tied up another person in the lobby. They stole borrowed jewelry as well as her own. It was obviously an inside job by professionals.
Since you posted below me I assume your post was in reference to mine.
I didn't blame her. If this is true she most certainly doesn't deserve it. Butttt I used to keep my car unlocked in my driveway alllllll the way up by my house and twice it was gone through and items stolen. Now I am obsessed with ensuring it's locked. By keeping it unlocked I am a target, plain and simple.
That jogger that's as recently murdered, of course she didn't deserve what happened, however as women we are all taught safety in numbers. How do you minimize your risk of NOT being a target?
With Kim K her entire life is essentially out there and by constantly flaunting her wealth she sets herself up for being a target. Paris isn't all that safe right now, imagine ISIS grabbed her? Far fetched (and definitely they'd been more than a bicycle to capture her) but still scary. Why was she all alone in a hotel with one person at the front desk protecting her?

im just curious, They said there were pirces missing of jewelry but no mention of the engagement ring. Dont you think they would have taken that?
I hope its not a lie, that would just be awful.
They are saying a ring work $4 million was stolen. That had to be her engagement ring.
I do not think this was a publicity stunt.
I do not think was an inside job.
She is at Paris Fashion week. It's normal for her to have millions in borrowed jewelry.
They are on social media and talking about what they are doing in real time. All the time. Also her BRAND is about flaunting her wealth. So she gets no blame from me.
I don't know any details, just what I saw in the news this morning. I haven't had a chance yet to see about the duct tape etc.
But I don't believe this was an inside job. She just allowed too much out there and they were waiting for the right time to "strike" so to speak. These guys knew exactly what they were doing.
Now good luck selling a 4 million dollar stone. Not damn likely.

Kim Kardashian robbed at gunpoint!
To clarify. The word Hotel is French does not always mean Hotel as we think of them. A private hotel means a private residence/building. Like a city property that rich people used to own. You enter that double door and you have a super in charge of the building. When you enter that first door, there is the super apartment right away at the entrance. Then You go up to the apartments. Some hotels, those double doors can fully open (previously for carriages) and you would go through in the alcove and into a paved courtyard.
So here the person who was taken by force first is called the "guardien". This is not really security. It's the super. Also called a "concierge". But again the role is different than people may think. The super kind of look at who comes in. But not always. Someone forgets their keys to enter the double door. 50 years ago they would collect everyone mails. They just kept an eye on things.

Re: Kim Kardashian robbed at gunpoint!
inside job for sure. after she was attacked last week, her security should have been stepped up. instead they knew where she was staying and that she was alone. nobody was hurt. someone tipped them off.

Kim Kardashian robbed at gunpoint!
TMZ reported that they asked her for her ring and she told them where it was. And they said her friend was sleeping downstairs, heard the commotion, locked herself in a bathroom and called security.

Re: Kim Kardashian robbed at gunpoint!
Blind Gossip already has the scoop, I was waiting for it 
[Blind Gossip] The best way to get people to pay attention to a story? Put out multiple versions of it!
This family is a master of doing this, and the latest crime story is no exception. The number of people involved, the presence or absence of security, the sequence of events, what materials were used, what items were taken, how they were valued, what was said, how she reacted, etc. are being manipulated for maximum dramatic impact and to keep people talking. The only constant is that she is the victim.
If they put out one version of a story, it’s over in a day. So they will quietly put out multiple versions with different details. It doesn’t matter if it’s accurate or if it makes any sense. The more versions there are, the more people argue over it, the longer legs the story has. Then they will come in with a prepared statement that will match the police report and present the family in the best possible light. They are also lining up a marketing partner or partners. Everyone in the family will be coached on their individual reactions for maximum marketing impact.
Nice to see that everyone has their priorities straight!

It's not a publicity stunt, but definitely an inside job.

Re: Kim Kardashian robbed at gunpoint!
To the people that are posting that it's a shame we don't have empathy, it's sad we don't care, we think it's staged, she's a fellow human.... my response is nope, I don't care that this happened to her. I don't even give the littlest of fukcs. Not an itty bitty fukc is given. We're not the cynical ones, it's very telling that most people yawned and thought "staged". It says a lot about who this family is and the depths they will go to to be on the front cover. I don't feel sorry for someone who's dumb enough to flaunt her million dollar ring on the internet and in the next breath post that she's all alone. That's dumber than a bag of rocks. Am I supposed to believe this really happened because her family is quiet across social media? Of course they are! They're awaiting further instruction from mommy and their team of PR vultures on how to spin this. Adds to the drama, doesn't it? I don't feel sorry for her because my heart is already heavy with sorrow for the little boy that was killed in the school shooting, for all the kids that are gunned down at schools and playgrounds every day, for the kids that go to bed hungry, for the ones that are abused, for the women that are trapped in abusive marriages, for people that have to fight for basic civil rights, for people that face oppression and racism every single day, for the vets that have nothing, are given nothing and have to go on welfare to feed their families and then have to be called freeloaders. My heart has no room to feel anything for kim kardashian, the lowest form of life.
Yes, let's all gather hands across the country and pray for kim kardashian's safety and well-being while she sleeps in her bel-air mansion tonight dreaming of how to make millions off this scam and getting another spinoff reality show.

You know what, I do not disagree with most of what your wrote. My point was that I am not saying that we should all be huddled around KK and wearing Keep Kim Safe Shirts. All I am saying is that we should be against violence for all not just the people that we believe need our support and who aren't wealthy assholes. Just because we don't like her it's not ok she was attacked.

Re: Kim Kardashian robbed at gunpoint!
For me there is a huge difference in saying I think it was a stunt bc who carries hat much jewelry/bc she posts on snapchat etc
If anyone thinks bc she had 11 million in jewelry she was "asking for it". Well you just perpetuated rape culture
I think most of us here had that thought it could be a stunt was simply bc of how she is famous (and I do not mean a sex tape,I hate that argument). Her career is based of staying relevant.

I actually do agree that victim blaming in any form is reprehensible and the idea that someone was asking for it is wrong and perpetuates the notion that only women are responsible for themselves, and that people who do harm to women are not.
So yes, blaming KK because she flaunts her wealth isn't right.
Whether or not this was a publicity stunt remains to be seen - and if it is, then they've stooped lower than anything I could have imagined.

Re: Kim Kardashian robbed at gunpoint!
So here's my thoughts on "blaming the victim".
Of course it is NEVER your fault when a crime is committed against you. It is always the fault of the criminal. Of course!
However, since we are young we are taught certain things to keep ourselves safe and reduce our chances of something "bad" happening.
It starts when you are very young and learn about stranger danger. You never go with a stranger, you never take candy from a stranger. etc.
Then you get older and you learn to lock your car doors, lock your doors and windows at night, not to walk alone down a dark alley, not to open the door to someone you don't know, etc. etc, etc.
So while if something happens to you, it's never your fault, you do try to do things to minimize your risk.
It's kind of like that commercial where the woman is at the airport and posts on FB that she is leaving on vacation and the burglar in the ski mask "likes" it.
It's common sense- especially with social media- to not let the whole world know what you are doing, when, where, how etc.
The sad reality is there are a lot of bad people out there who prey on others- so why make it easier for them.
I'm not saying that if this turns out to not be a hoax that she deserved it, but come on- a little common sense in what you are posting goes a long way.
Maybe it's a lesson learned.

Agreed. If the story turns out to be 100% true and not a Kardashian TM fabrication (which would make this family even more despicable than they already are), I don't think she deserved to be held up at gunpoint just as much as I think nobody deserves to be. I still don't care that it happened to her, I really just don't and if some people think that makes me cruel or heartless I'll live with it... but no, I don't think she deserved it. Of course it's never the fault of the victim, but growing up in a rough neighborhood I learned at a young age that if you have something worth taking you don't flaunt it unless you want it taken. Don't make yourself a target. It took kim 40 years to learn the same lesson, and that's IF she even learned it. And while everyone is feeling sorry for them and pointing fingers at those that don't it's quite possible this family is not even in turmoil at all, and may even be *gasp* happy! that this happened because they're already churning out ideas to make money off it. The're not like regular everyday people that something lke this would have a deep impact. They only see dollar signs. And collagen.

I wish for my own children's sake that we lived in a different world but the sad reality is there will always be people who do bad things, there always have been and always will be, and we have to learn how to navigate in this world while sharing it with them. It sucks, but no alternatives.

Re: Kim Kardashian robbed at gunpoint!
The whole thing screams drama. Conveniently now an assistant was able to lock herself up and heard Kim begging for her life. Really?
If true, did she deserve it? Of course not. Did she create the situation? Yes. It's not blaming the victim. It's just criticizing her common sense. Hey, I am by myself all alone with millions in jewelry. Really?
But it is highly convenient that she has no body guard, decides to post a lot of jewelry pics of her ALL ALONE an bam a team of thieves can organize a hold up in just hours and knows all the security details she has that night. Then even more convenient is the locked up assistant now. Btw why isn't the assistant forefront on this? Then comes back to the US within hours in a 10 escalade parade. The queen is saved and back home to her castle with 15 bodyguards outside the building. The World can breath again.
This isn't highly dramatic.
Excuse us for raising an eyebrow here!!!
