Beyond irony. Sounds like the whole family is defective.
Why not promote suicide as a way to prevent becoming a victim of crime? There are simply too many potential victims wandering 'on the streets'. If we can reduce the number of helpless victims, the crime rate will plummet!
Of course, gun control laws only created more disarmed victims...
Not to be too insensitive, but shouldn't Regan's family be viewing her murder as a victory?
After all, with the aid of her grandson she proved no one really NEEDS those icky guns.
Didn't she just make her point, the hard way.
Remember Rayna Ross.
Ms. Ross was in the Army, living off-base in an apartment. After she broke up with her boyfriend, also in the Army, he threatened her.
She lived in Virginia, where she could purchase and take home a gun the same day. She did. That night, the ex broke into her apartment to assault her in her bedroom with a bayonet.
Mistake. BIG mistake. One he can't make again.
See, SOME people buy into the abuse heaped on them by the government or their own loved ones and friends. They begin to agree that if protecting oneself requires a weapon and violence, it's not worth it, it's "lowering yourself to their level."
As a consequence, goes my own theory, nonviolent people produce fewer offspring, being dead and all, while the violent have 8 to 15 children by different mothers, who, having low self-esteem themselves, welcome a baby as a status symbol and a reason to get together with other pathetic in-family orphans. Our welfare system REQUIRES that parents live apart to get that check. It's another setup for what's happening. The long-range goal is -- you guessed it -- disarmament of the productive and redistribution of their earnings to the nonworking. Telling the nonworkers that they DESERVE a home, health insurance, etc., was obviously a winning strategy.
When people who live in an apartment and ride the bus see me go past from my owned house in my car, is that why they look bitter and angry? I'm going to my JOB. If you're dependable and articulate, you can have one also. What I couldn[t do with 40 more hours a week for myself and my family. Wow.
