Annie, this happened to me, literally!! Many, many years ago, I was standing just outside a circle of JWs chatting about something or other after the meeting. One of the circle, a self-important elderette, stepped backward (deliberately or not, I'll never know) and stepped hard on my foot. When I cried out in pain, she turned her head just enough to see who it was, sneered, and turned back to talk with her friends. No apology from her or any reaction from others who saw the incident.
At the time it happened, I was in my teens, and it made me feel like a small bug, not worth the trouble to notice. Now, it makes me laugh to think that the JWs quite literally "stumbled" one of their own. It was just one of many incidents that finally woke me up to the true nature of the JW/WTS cult. -

I took the girl I was dating at the time.
Was she a "worldly" gal?Well, I hadn't been to any sort of meeting for 5 or 6 years by then, so I rather was as well. But yes, she was a very "worldly" gal.

Memorial 2004.
We were collared by an elder as we left, asking if we wanted to come back to the org.
HELL NO! That's what we thought, but what we actually said was 'we'll think about it'. -
