Get a gun because an order of protection is just a piece of paper.

Stupid Kansans.

Truer words never spoken. Few survive learning it the hard way.

I believe Kansas residents can carry (in Kansas). At least to some degree.

Too bad she didn’t have something a bit more intimidating in her pocket.

They should print them on Kevlar.

Now, if she was found in Kansas City MISSOURI then it’s a different story. Should have needed CCW.

I can’t read the story because of their pop-up.

But the United Nations tells us self-protection is bad.

And we should all listen to what the United Nations tells us to do.

Massachusetts judges say that all the time.But they add "or she could have hurt someone else".

“”” the man charged with killing her in her pocket”””


Forget about shooting someone in the chest.

The pocket is much more vulnerable.

I believe ALL Citizens can carry. To any extent they so desire: 2A.

Now, we wish to debate ‘legal’ vs. Constitutional, her ‘outcome’ was via the former, when she should have the latter...for all the good the ‘law’ did her.

You’d think someone with the last name of ‘Birdsong’ would be a nicer fella!

Prayers up for his victim. I’m sorry she didn’t/couldn’t/wouldn’t see fit to protect herself better from this lunatic, but it is what it is. Same old, same old, unfortunately. :(

Yep. My state allows us to carry, on person.

People need to realize that restraining orders are not printed on bulletproof paper.

A clicked on a link in the story and found the perp’s mug shot.

White guy, looks like a prematurely aged 40 year old meth head, and looks like he is completely at home back in jail.

I was going to post the photo, but now it's disappeared behind a pay wall.

1) Cops: “We can’t do anything until after he kills you.” 2) She’s packing: Would she finish him off for good if she was threatened? I think not. I doubt any prosecutor would charge her. She’s screwed either way.

It was protection for Tabitha in writing, signed by a judge giving her the legal right to shoot the son of a bitch if he tried it again.

Without steel backing it up, though, it's just a piece of paper.
