You obviously fail to see the humor in what you wrote.
Is it the photographs themselves that are empowering or what they depict?
Re-read what you wrote. You said the photographs themselves are empowering and I found it humorous.
You fail to acknowledge the imagery being presented in Volk's photographs vs. what is depicted in the teacher's photo.
At whom is the girl in the photograph aiming? Obviously a perp who is off camera. And, why didn't the cameraman have the model aim directly at the camera? Because that makes us, the viewer, the perp.
When a Hollywood director wants us to see someone else getting shot, they show the actor aiming off camera, such as the Dirty Harry photo. When the director wants to put us, the viewer, into the place of the person being shot, they have the actor aim directly at the camera.
When the folks at the teacher's school saw the photograph of her taking aim at the viewer, they were reminded of the photo of the VT shooter and what he did after taking a similar photo. That's why they were alarmed.
So, are we merely talking about an image or what the image depicts?
You started the conflict on this thread by taking offense to the original pic which reminded me of a Volk pic.
Volk’s pics are pretty well known on RKBA threads here.
RKBA means Right to Keep and Bear Arms
that’s all, not one but you is suggesting a picture will suffice for the real thing
Your post is a bull's-eye.
