Looks Like God Told Her Neighbor to Shoot Back

The sheriff's office reports that 47-year-old Kathleen Aceto showed up with a gun and began shooting Friday morning. A man in the house grabbed a gun and fired back, and Aceto ran away. [More]
But the antis ridicule the notion that the same response would have worked on Amy Bishop...

G*d told me this morning to, as much as possible, be at peace with my neighbors. Happy to comply. For those of you that may suspect me of "hearing voices", be at ease. When I say G*d told me, it means I read it in the Bible.

Well, Sean, maybe if more people listened to G-d the way you do, they'd be less likely to hear voices. Until then, "keep your ear to the book" and your powder dry.

Doesn't it strike anyone that this woman wasn't crazy enough to stay in a gunfight? Or that such response just might work on other "crazies"?

She's not insane enough to skate on this. And the rest of them aren't either. Now, this is the point where someone asks "When will the gun grabbers learn this?"

But that is the wrong question. The real question is when will we force them to acknowledge that they have always known this and their goal is to be able to attack us without need to run away from reciprocity?

We should never let them pretend they don't know. There is a huge difference between ignorance and evil intent. For no man needs another to be unarmed unless he has evil intentions toward that other.

We need to let them know we know about the rot in their souls. And further, that we will not tolerate any effects to ourselves of it.
