    Okay, so not that I think cops deserve fairness, but in fairness…

    If she had an extremely strong devotion to her community and a sense of duty to those people, I could see how that would add a layer of grief and guilt on top of her son being an attempted mass murderer.

    But given that her son had access to at least one of her weapons, I’m not certain that she’s any different from the rest of the pro-gun-toting rules-don’t-apply-to-us that most of the “blue lives” are.

      There’s criminals under every rock and behind every tree. Gotta have unsecured guns within easy reach at all times. On counters, in bedside drawers, in closets, under car seats…
