Honoring your marriage just might protect you in unexpected ways.

December 3, 2007 By Austin Gardner Leave a Comment

While many have often said that one of the greatest protections from AIDS and Venereal Disease is the wedding band or really honoring your wedding vows I found the following article very interesting. Everyone of us should be very careful to honor our vows and promises to our wives. You do not literally have to wear your wedding band though I am very proud to wear mine–it just might protect you.

Wedding Ring Deflects Robber’s Bullet, Saves Mississippi Store Owner’s Life, Police Say

Sunday, December 02, 2007

JACKSON, Mississippi — Police say a Mississippi man’s wedding band deflected a bullet and probably saved his life.

Two men walked into Donnie Register’s shop at The Antique Market in Jackson on Saturday and asked to see a coin collection, police Sgt. Jeffery Scott said.

When Register retrieved the collection, one of the men pulled a gun and demanded money. A shot was fired as Register threw up his left hand, and his wedding ring deflected the bullet, police said.

“The bullet managed to go through two of his fingers without severing the bone,” said his wife, Darlene Register. “A part of the bullet broke off and is in his middle finger. The other part is in his neck, lodged in the muscle tissue. But it’s not life-threatening.”

She said she gives God all the credit.

Police were searching for the robbers, who Scott said “stole a substantial amount of cash.”
