The woman who gave her the gun at the school for her to use on the snake faces charges too.
No kids were in the immediate area when she fired and missed.
The snake escaped. Hard to hit a fast moving snake with a .380.
Time to ban snakes. I mean the two-legged kind that would pass and enforce this kind of law...
That mug shot will be a disaster.
Could have brushed/combed her hair and “smiled for the camera” (Peg!). Hopefully, her lawyer will get a more appealing picture for the trial.
She was actually charged with attempted murder when it was discovered that the snake was actually a democrat councilman!!
If ever a case for use of a firearm on school property was justified, this would be it.
Water Moccasins are nothing to mess around with. I got bit by one in the 50s, when I was 8. Anti-venom shot, tetanus shot, and minor surgery to remove broken off fangs embedded in my hand.
The ban on guns is all about control and nothing else. The king’s men/women all carry guns to control, kill, and intimidate the sheep as necessary. the purpose of the sheep are twofold: 1. Provide money for the king’s coffers and the king’s support by paying taxes. 2. Give the king votes thereby continuing him in power.
I’m sorry to say it but this was just a stupid thing to do.
Obviously the school administrators are at fault for not posting signs declaring the school a Snake Free Zone. Then it would have been illegal for any snakes to come onto school property and no one would have ever needed to worry about snakes again! Right? Am I right?
Would they have been as upset if she’d been carrying a hatchet or a machete?
One of my friend’s parents told me he never wanted to be around a loaded gun, even if it was in a drawer. He is a democrat, but, I was still disappointed in him. Thought he had bigger balls than that.
Their anti gun theme is working and they are treating babies who make L shaped pop tarts or point their fingers and say, “Pew, pew, pew” like criminals.
Monsters, all of them.
Also indoctrination: put the idea that "guns are evil" into their minds. It only takes two generations for it to become "fact". Look how short of a time it took for the " gay is OK" meme to become mainstream.
I went to an extraordinarily liberal private high school in the 1980’s (long story). But that experience gives me a good benchmark to compare how crazy the world has become, and this incident is a great example.
One day there was a very large snake in a tree, next to a sidewalk. So, a member of the maintenance staff walked up to it with a shotgun, and eliminated it. And that’s the end of the story. As recently as thirty years ago, not even rabid liberals blinked at the notion of the maintenance man possessing a gun on campus, or using it. It just really wasn’t a big deal.
Another example was an annual ritual called TAG - The Assassination Game. It was based on a movie I think...anyway for a period of weeks, we all walked around with dart guns and people we were assigned to kill. Some of the guns were ridiculously futuristic in look...others looked just like a M1911. Again, nobody thought twice about this - imagine walking into any school with a toy gun these days. And I re-iterate this was a very, very liberal school. One of the driving forces behind forcing gays on the Boy Scouts was my classmate, for example.
Thirty years later, we are a nation of over-panicked lunatics.
Hard to believe a jury of her peers would convict.
They want “gun-free” school zones? LET THEM HAVE THEM. Leave the idiots and their whelps to their own fates, like Columbine and Sandy Hook. Just stay away, and keep your own kids away, because criminals will be the only ones with guns.
So the real question here is who told the cops?
OK, according to this article, Gregory owned the gun and had the permit. Nothing is said about deMarco, except she borrowed the gun.
So, remarks about permits really do not matter here, apparently. Unless the facts are omitted and wrong.
Of course, morally there is nothing wrong with what she did. Maybe it’s a bleeding-heart PETA issue?
