LAS VEGAS (AP) — From a hometown of 26,000 people to an adopted home borough of 2.6 million, Miss America's story includes a journey from a small town to the big city — but it doesn't start there.

Mallory Hagan, 23, moved from Alabama to New York City as soon as she became a legal adult, and though she says she left because "I needed to find myself," it turns out she knew who she wanted to be all along.

[money quote]"I'm not sure that it came out as eloquently as I would have liked it to, but my views remain the same: It's never OK to fight violence with violence."

Really? Never? So the woman who protected herself by shooting a man who invaded her house and purposefully searched fr her until he found her hiding in the attic with her two small children was in the WRONG?

Pardon me while I puke.

BS. You petty queen.

Some one hits you there are intended and unintended consequences which can permanently disable you or ultimately kill you.

You are responsible for your own life and the only way to defend it is to overcome an aggressor with even greater force, violently, to save your life and keep you from harm.

You hit back and hard!!!

Harder than you have been assaulted!

NYC schools all have NYPD School Safety Officers in them. They are armed.

Lemme guess. She also needs "space". And "it's not you, it's me."

It’s nice to know that she’s a transplant here and not a native. Given the timeframe, I’m betting she moved to treny “Billyburg”, and all the young idiots like to call Williamsburg.
