More stirring and creepy evidence to support legalized "concealed carry laws" across the nation. The news reporting networks and other media are in an absolute tizzy about this today:
• Binghamton Rampage Leaves 13 Dead, 26 WoundedThink about it, people. It took only one heavily-armed and mentally defective idiot to wreak mass murder (13 dead at last count) against a group of American citizens, or prospective American citizens, who were innocently unarmed and completely vulnerable to this kind of mindless attack in a public place.
On the other hand, look what happened on Valentine's day 2007 at Trolley Square, where one lightly armed, concealed carry-permitted Ogden Hero held another well armed assassin at bay, in what could have been the worst of the Killer Rampage of that year, and obviously reducing the potential rampage.
We believe this massacre in Birmington could have been very well mitigated or stopped, if even a small proportion of the people had been packing heat at that New York Civic Association immigration traing center building.
One thing is clear. Once an event like this has occurred, the police show up mainly to count the bodies. Unarmed people always become the victims when all the guns are own by criminals and the criminally psychotic... and NOT by the law abiding lumpencitizens. It's up to every citizen to protect himself and his family. In events like this, every individual becomes "the first responder." When the Utopians prevent citizens from arming and protecting themselves, we'll continue to read about heart-breaking stories like this.
In spite of the public passion of modern socialists to craft the perfect Utopian society, we all have to dwell in reality. We live in a world inhabited by 6+ billion Homo Sapiens, whose animal genetics differ little from chimpanzees. And we already know how unpredictable and dangerous Chimpanzees can be .
When the shit comes down, it's up to each citizen to protect himself and his loved ones from his fellow "higher apes," we believe, until the cavalry (the police responder) arrives.
It's a jungle here on earth, people, regardless of what the "Utopians" suggest.
It's been that way for human beings since the stone age, at least.
So what say our gentle readers about all this?
