Getting Mad

While this is in direct opposition to everything that they suggest and direct and won't last, it might very well mark the point where people have finally gotten sick of criminals. Here, specifically school infiltrators and child murders; but applicable to many circumstances. I think calling in for a surgical strike on the felon(s)' butt is wiser. Often, conpliance yields better results, but examples given in the article point to times when compliance yeielded suffering then murder.

Skip all that! I think America sould finally wake and be sick of crime and criminals and accept, "I shoot the bastards! That's [our] policy!" That's right. Whether the muderer was suffering from a bad case of indegestion or inoperable brain tumor, the wrongness of the act requires action -- prompt action. Tooo often people try to emancipate people from their actions and responsibilies. Gosh, he did that because he was abused *1, or she had PPD (post partem despression) or PMS, or mixed coffee and three other caffeine drinks and got too wired.

While this thinking -- prepatory retalitory violence, may be innappropriate for some situations, I dare say that subduing an attacker (especially when outnumbered -- which is almost always the case) makes much more sense than accepting the doom. If you do some reading on recent shootings, including the poor victims of the Amish killer, he supposedly brought in materials for raping as well, since he freed the boys. In another shooting, the guys were freed and a few girls freed who reported to police/swat outside that he was sexually assaulting the girls there. They went in and only one child died. Now, fingers could be pointed to police mishandling, but if a felon comes in with automatic weapons, do you really think he's going to drop them and say ... "kidding!"

*1 Those abused are not doomed to repeat the crime. That's bullcrap! Victims, more than non-victims should know the wrongness of the act and how it hurts and the long-standing difficulties it can have, therefore they should not act out the abuse that "still" makes them suffer. If they are struggling that badly ... seeking counseling. Many therapists work cheap or free and are readily available.

I have never been confronted with rape or murder before, but I would like to think that I would battle until the end. "If you're gonna die ... if you're gonna die. If you're gonna die ... if you're gonna die. If you're gonna die ... die with your boots on!" + In one hypothetical, first you are raped then you are killed or you could die fighting never being raped. "It's a logical transaction, one life for billions." "The needs of the many outweigh the needs of the few -- or the one."

+ Iron Maiden, meaning, die fighting, die trying -- don't so easily submit to defeat on important matters.
