The Emotional Economy of Mass Murder
h/t IMAO[SlowFacts] Mass murderers know something most of us don’t know. These murderers figured out that they can break the rules. They know they can do anything they want..for a while. No one will stop the murderer until people with guns show up. Murderers get those 11 minutes to kill at will. Murderers enjoy the thrill of having their way with innocent people. They love the last free acts they will ever have. Murderers are thrilled by the notoriety that they get from the mass media..even if they never live to see it. Murderers know that the rest of us obey the rules while they don’t have to. They know we are disarmed in "gun-free" zones. After a mass murder, these killers figured out that we will only make more rules. ...Many of us will pretend that the next rule will make us safe. In fact, the next rules will probably make things worse rather than better. The next rules will make it easier for the mass murderer to kill more people. The reason is simple. Only honest people follow the rules. Disarming more of the good guys makes it easier for the bad guys to kill. That unavoidable truth is as simple as it is unpleasant.
Go ahead and make your schools and churches into "gun-free" zones where honest citizens are disarmed. Murderers don’t care about your rules. Go ahead and pretend that more ink on paper will stop a murderer with a gun. That is exactly what murderers want. Posted by: g(r)omgoru 2019-09-09 |
