WTH? As crocodile dundee would say, “That’s not a gun!”
Hmmm. That being said, I can tell you first hand that looking down the barrel of a .22=16” USS New Jersey cannon.
Why did she leave her bag in the hallway? Every woman I know holds on to their bags tighter than Scrooge holds onto a Pound.
What does her age and salary have to do with this story?
Filler. Reporters have lost the art of detail and exposition. I'm surprised they did not indicate what car she drove and the color of her dress.
I’m 70 and if I was still teaching in NJ I would b making about $132,000
What do you suppose this line was supposed to mean: “It is understandable when you consider her annual salary, as a home economics teacher, is $70,339.”
Is it understandable that she’s still teaching at age 70, due to the salary? Is it too high for her to stop, or too low for her to stop? Is it understandable that she brought a gun in her bag, due to her salary? Due to she’s 70?
Seems like that was a random comment, thrown in to make us (I am assuming) feel sorry for her to still be teaching at 70 and for us to feel sorry for her to “only” be making over $70K for it?
I’m guessing the writer was trying to explain why she was still working @ 70.
Cause that was the question I had when I saw 70, then read the next sentence.
My wife is on the horns of that same dilemma...she wants to retire @ 70 but she likes the dough.
There's that word again. Reporters are ignorant, "cartridges," not "bullets."
All is well since it wasn’t a “high capacity” magazine.
or “rapid-fire” bullets...
Gives “my dog ate my homework” new credence.
Good point :)
The press always looks for something to sully the subject of a story. A recent story in the Guardian felt the need to disclose the address and value of the home where the subject of the story resides. It had absolutely nothing to do with the story being reported. Just smear the subject. It's the way the liberal press operates.
Maybe the Handgun Fairy left it for her.
Like this guy has.
Karen Horen told police she had gone into the family's garage to retrieve some Christmas shopping money from a locked safe that morning.
"She stated she it was possible one of her husband's weapons could have fallen into her school bag while she was getting money from the safe," the police report states.
Police went to the Horen's Point Pleasant home, where Ian Horen confirmed the gun was his. Both Karen and Ian Horen said they had no domestic violence, suicidal or homicidal problems, the report states.
"Mr. Horen stated he truly believed the weapon must have fallen into Mrs. Horen's bag, and that she did not know about it," according to the police report.
Don't you just hate it when that happens?
