The Unbearable Lightness of Being Caroline

I wonder how this insulated cud-chewer would do in a fight. [More]

Nothing can protect people from liberal prosecutors who choose to prosecute DESPITE the wording of the law and clear intent of the legislature. Aided and abetted by hoplophobic jurors they are able to manipulate the legal system to serve their own agenda. It's simple "Controllers are gonna control".

Why, to hear Carolie tell it, you might come away with the impression that women get jailed for self-defense more than men do. I’d like to see her prove that, not just imply it in passing.

I suppose Caroline would prefer that the women she names had had no weapon, and been killed by their attackers. Yes, the legal system does unfairly prosecute victims of crime (female AND male) in some jurisdictions. Does that mean surrendering your life is a more reasonable alternative? The women Caroline named may be (unjustly) spending some time in the Big House, but at least they're alive! And, it seems to me that reforming the District Attorney's office in those jurisdictions to end unjust prosecutions is a more reasonable measure than removing the instruments of self-defense from potential victims. But, hoplophobes don't think logically. I was going to leave a comment on The Trace, but they don't accommodate comments - how convenient for them.

If I read correctly, carolyn had a PPO against her ex yet continued to see him, in fact, letting him into the home the night of the homicide.I can see how this could lead to some confusion with the claim of self defense.

At least one of the names that stupid bag listed wasn't charged, a KY woman, I believe. One of the critical details of another case involved the woman going to her car to retrieve her gun. I use this case in my CCW classes. If she got out of the house to her car unmolested, she could have left. She was prosecuted precisely because she couldn't prove she feared for her life when she came back inside the house and started firing. It's easy, if one only hears one side of the story, to accept the details as factual. The author is just another gun hating liar and it shows in the piece of shit she signed her name to.

Just my .02
