   Sure there is. That was then and this is now!   
      
   Well, luckily, as a convicted felon she won't have to worry about ever   
   carrying a gun again. As a single mom she should have known better than   
   to think about defending herself and her children.  Guns only ADD TO THE   
   VIOLENCE! She is lucky she wasn't attacked, because instead Shaneen and   
   her children standing there and "taking their medicine" like good   
   liberals, she had some crazy idea of self-defense! Who knows who she   
   might have hurt? It's well New Jersey threw her into prison before she   
   hurt some innocent unarmed liberal minding his own business with her   
   cop-killer bullets out of her assault weapon! Rays from that gun she was   
   carrying might have even made her decide to shoot a cop!   
      
   On the other hand, Shaneen is a black single mother who doubtless voted   
   for Obama, and on that basis she clearly deserves a pass on these   
   charges PROVIDED she swears to never touch one of those icky guns (or   
   any gun-related items) again.
