KENT -- Kent Junior High teacher Renee Rudenick carries a handgun to protect herself from her ex-husband, her defense attorney told a Kent Municipal Court jury yesterday.

"The 53-year-old Rudenick faces a charge of possessing a firearm on school grounds in a trial expected to last two days."

KABA NOTE: If a teacher is a member of "the people," being prohibited the right to keep and bear arms is a clear rights violation. We hope she pursues this on a second amendment basis.

"Asking neighbors about guns not only strains relationships, it exaggerates dangers and risks lives if neighbors are unarmed when criminals attack. Yet possibly some good can come out of all this gun phobia. If your neighbors ask you whether you own a gun, why not offer to go out to a shooting range together and teach them about guns?" --John R. Lott, Jr.

Authorites do not know exactly what killed the suspect... In California, you need a license to carry chemical Mace, but (due to an anti-gun female politico) you can buy pepperspray without one. As we can see, "non-lethal" isn't always...

Court was called to order at 9am sharp. Judge Becker entered and a packed court room of Vana Haggerty supporters rose as one.

You could just sense the US Flag was flying a little higher than usual at that moment.
