No, there is nothing more to the story. See the quote. See the third paragraph from the bottom. The couple then reunited outside the cinema, after Ms Legratta phoned her fiance who had driven away from the scene. I missed this paragraph in the article. Gutless motherfucker did in fact drive off, according to the article. His girlfriend should get a sharp knife and end his breeding. |

Placing yourself between your kids and harm's way is not a "Billy Badass" phenomenon, nor is it an instinct that only resides in some community of heros. If you are a man, this is what you do; you protect your kids from harm -even if it means you die. If you do not do this, you are not a man. There is no debating this.

If something did happen to his children he would have been an even bigger shitstain of a man. That's what he IS, no buts about it. Remember that story about the family in conneticut, that doctor whose wife and daughter were followed home from shopping by those two dirt bags. They climbed in the basement window, UNARMED tied up the father, raped and girls, took the mom back out to the bank to withdraw money, killed the mom and tied the girls to their beds and set the house on fire. The older sister managed to get loose, died trying to save her sister. Only after the house was on fire and the father was personally in mortal danger did he manage to get free and save his own worthless ass. He has to live with himself but probably justifies it somehow. I want to say that it is part of the "me,me,me" era, but I'm not sure. There just seems like there's far more worthless cowards around now than there ever were. Unfortunately there weren't any Samuel Williamses in the theatre that night. |
