Anyway, it turns out that the poor, misunderstood young man had a past history of suffering and deprivation. He had a really bad toothache and no money for proper dental care. Under the circumstances, anyone could see that a young, confused person might lash out a little.
It's really such a shame that in Joe Biden's America, an 18 year old can't afford assault weapons, tactical gear and dental care. It's really not fair to expect a fine young white boy to walk around defenseless in this scary world. If we had some sort of social program that could provide weapons at lower cost for cash-strapped people, then poor Payton's pain could have been alleviated and all his subsequence suffering avoided.
Somebody should have helped this young man before he acted out from his deep well of sorrow. |
Thank goodness sympathetic people like you are among us here at Landover Baptist, Sister Handmaiden.
I think young men need exposure early in their lives to both male mentors and appropriate fire arms. For example, let's say a young man is going to a job interview at a place he is unfamiliar with. He must pass through doors without knowing who or what is on the other side.
If he previously had good training in fire arms and was wearing a weapon he knew how to use, he would pass through the door with confidence. His interview demeanor would reflex this confidence and he would be successful. Money for a bad tooth or help with an amateur extraction would be there for him.
