“...We have laws to protect the rest of us from sick monsters, your “honor”...”
Laws do nothing.
A firearm in your hand or on your person equalizes the odds in your favor.
You are the First Responder. You are responsible for your own safty; no one else on this planet is responsible for protecting your life.
That young girl, had she been armed and trained even a little (a responsibility which belongs to her FATHER) would at least have had a fighting chance - maybe even putting this rabid animal down before he could hurt anyone else.
And as far as this judge goes - him, and people like him, are just as responsible for the death of this girl and others because they will not do their job and put these freak-fiends away.
I can almost guarantee this scumbag judge is also against personal firearms ownership and self defense.
To my mind - every time a person is murdered in a city/town/county etc that prohibits the carrying of firearms, EVERY SINGLE PUBLIC SERVANT THAT VOTED ON AND SIGNED THAT BILL INTO LAW should have their faces, names, and addresses put up on a billboard so that the families of the victims can see who they are - and who is just as responsible for the murder of their loved on as the criminal who carried it out.
All “In The Public Interest”, you see...
Considering the number of repeat offenders, if they had been taken care of the first time around, the streets would be a lot safer.
Not only would it prevent them from doing it again, but it would send a message to others thinking of the same thing and might discourage some of them.
She may very well have been trained, but I don’t know of any state that allows a 14 year old to carry a concealed weapon.
All the training in the world isn’t going to help unless the people can actually use it when they need to.
Funny how a hundred years or so ago, when all kids knew how to use a gun by that age, that firearms never posed the danger to society that the gun grabbers warn us will happen if they’re unrestricted.
Idiots......
