More tragic stories from gun-happy culture
The story is almost too tragic to talk about. And yet, we ought to force ourselves occasionally to acknowledge heartbreaking consequences of living in a gun-happy culture. It’s not as if the wretched aftermath of gun accidents or crimes poses a threat to gun extremists or the NRA anymore.
Good grief, even though the NRA has gone from advocating for sporting guns ages ago to now advocating for assault rifles, it’s remained in firm control of both major political parties. The notion that any politician will propose new gun regulation, much less try to “take away our guns,” is beyond laughable.
But, back to our story, a story that comes out of Connecticut. On one of the last days of September, a teacher named Jeffrey Giuliano – a teacher described as “popular,” who also ran “summer music and zoology camps” – got a call at 1 a.m. from his sister, alone in her house next door to his in the town of New Fairfield (about 50 miles from New York City). She had noticed someone prowling outside her home and was frightened the person intended to break in.
