This week Elsie Barretto was the latest in the disturbing trend of "granny muggings" when a robber attacked her coming out of the elevator of her Upper East Side building. The 83 year-old deaf woman suffered a black eye, broken dentures, cuts to her mouth that required stitches and even had her pants ripped by the thug trying to get at her cash. Life may have taken away her hearing, but it sure hasn't been able to get rid of her fight. She says that she kicked and punched her attacker throughout the robber in an attempt to defend herself. And she's not done. Now Barretto tells cops: "If you find him, bring him back to me...I'm going to punch him in right in the face and I'm gonna break his mouth and break his nose. To teach him a lesson."

It's the same media that NEVER mentioned Muslims' hatred of Israel as a possible motive for 9/11.

I think that fiesty spirit may play a part in how these ladies GET to be 83 years old and up.
Why are old ladies getting punched in the face all of a sudden?
She's amazing!
Team Elsie all the way!!!!
And when she's finished with him I bet there will be a string of back up hitters waiting in line to finish him off.
Look for more of these attacks as the economy tanks.
Hit-em Gran!!
the city should give all aged people handguns.
