Carol Bowne is dead. The petite hairdresser was murdered by her ex-boyfriend.. and by the state of New Jersey. Bowne had received threats. She did everything a law-abiding citizen could do. She obtained a protective order. She installed security cameras inside and outside her home.
Ms. Bowne tried to get a firearm for self-defense. She started the long process to be allowed to buy a gun in New Jersey. The state delayed her application and Bowne ran out of time.
The man who stabbed Carol Bowne to death was a convicted felon. He had a previous charge of battery and armed kidnapping of another women. The police knew her murderer.. and yet they denied Carol Bowne a firearm purchase permit to defend herself. |

Just about every NJ legislator needs to be smeared with this lady's blood everyday on their way into the State House just as a reminder of the consequences NJ citizens bear because of their conceits.
We will never know if Ms. Browne could have successfully defended herself. She - thanks to smug, self-righteous conceits regarding self-defense by NJ legislators - never had the chance. |

TO REMEMBER |
| To have no proud monarch driving over me with his gilt coaches; nor his host of excise-men and tax-gatherers insulting and robbing me; but to be my own master, my own prince and sovereign, gloriously preserving my national dignity, and pursuing my true happiness; planting my vineyards, and eating their luscious fruits; and sowing my fields, and reaping the golden grain: and seeing millions of brothers all around me, equally free and happy as myself. This, sir, is what I long for. -- General Francis Marion, American War of Independence, Georgetown, SC [Source: 'Marion, The Life of Gen. Francis Marion' by M. L. Weems, Ch.18] |
