It Took a Village

State Spent $265K On Hawkins' Care

Mall Shooter Was State Ward For 4 Years
If this isn't an illustration against depending on the state to take over our lives, I don't know what is.

Markie Marxist sez: "This is almost too good to be true. We Marxists consider ourselves lucky to just extort money from the taxpayers and waste it. But when we can blow $265,000 on a guy who quickly turns out to be a mass murderer, I really get the feeling that we own this country. Of course, no amount of taxpayer dollars is too much if it produces a Marxist/warrior/hero/criminal who helps to destabilize/destroy capitalism. Sales are going to be way down at this mall, and perhaps others. That'll teach those capitalist consumers to go shopping!
It would have helped us if he had merely shot up the place without harming anyone, but it was extra nice of Santa to come early and give us 9 more for our gun ban body count. We're having a lot of luck this year, but next year, when the Supremes trash the Second Amendment; America's Communist destiny will be sealed!
I'm sorry that I couldn't comment on this story yesterday, but I was too busy dancing in the blood - it's a traditional "Red" thing that we like to do. Ha! Ha!"

Markie Marxist sez: "I forgot to mention that this is really, really, too easy. We ban guns so that people can get shot, then when they get shot we use that as an excuse to ban guns. Yeah, we really do own this country. Ha! Ha!"

Is it just me or does it seem like these whack jobs come out of the woodwork at just precisely the wrong time? And do they always have to be depressed? For crying out loud, if you're depressed and don't want to live, just kill yourself. Leave everybody else alone.

Wrong time? Seems like they come out at exactly the right time, for the enemy. As they say, once is chance, twice is coincidence, but three times is enemy action. Nope, I'm not a conspiracy theorist, but it just seems too darn convenient.
