don’t be too surprised if this knee-jerk moron takes advantage of the instant celebrity that his ‘tragedy’ has given him to run for congress.

how many times has that happened ?

Carolyn McCarthy began her congressional campaign immediately after her husband was killed in the LIRR massacre. Of course, she ran on a radical gun prohibition campaign. She won because of the favorable media spotlight.

The media promotes a culture of victim-worship, so victims naturally *expect* to be exalted.
