Those lazy Virginia tech victims?!....could they not've even gotten a round off?


My house mate 'E', an avid Dr. Laura Schlessinger-watcher emailed me this today:

From the blog of the American Armed Forces Radio Network agony aunt, DrLaura Schlessinger:
"I am “the proud mother of a deployed American paratrooper,” and because of that fact I have, perhaps, a unique perspective on the massacre at Virginia Tech. As a mother I, of course, thought about how horrendous this whole nightmare is to the families of the victims as well as all the emotional damage to the survivors. From listening to the reports on this heinous occurrence,

I heard repeatedly that the shooter had to reload several times and went from classroom to classroom.

As a military mom, I immediately wished that our young people had the same obligation and experience that all young folks in Israel have: two years of military training and service.

Those reloading and trolling periods were windows of opportunity that only young folks trained militarily would have been able to use to subdue or terminate the perp and save many lives."
Questions:

"Terminate the Perp?" is this fecking Judge Dredd or Robocop?

What's a trolling period?

Does she know what unique means? surely there is more than one military mom in the world with this persective?

This is reminding me of the old Dr. Laura-watching days in Dublin. Oh yeah, you can also get a Dr. Laura doll if you so wish (and if you have special voodoo powers please do)

I hate this woman.
I hate this woman a lot.
Sure Laura, what we need to do to protect our children from gun-toting lunatics is turn them ALL into gun-toting lunatics.
ARGH!

PS I saw Spidey 3 this weekend. I had no idea that wearing the Venom suit would turn Peter Parker into an emo...

Jeez, is that where's she's got to? Agony aunt for the Armed Services Radio Network. How fucking scary - and yet appropriate - is that?

Good to see you're staying vigilant, Lorcs. If there are any sightings on Fenian St., I'll let you know.
