Fox News recently reported
that the suspected Gilgo Beach serial killer had over 200 guns stored in a
vault at his residence in Massapequa, which has raised concerns. According
to Suffolk County Police Commissioner Rodney Harrison, the legality and
registration of the firearms is being investigated. However, he expressed
concerns about anyone possessing such a significant number of weapons.
Nevertheless, it's worth noting that the connection between firearms and the
crimes under investigation is not clear. All victims found between December
2010 and May 2011 were reportedly strangled, making the relevance of guns to
these murders unclear. The inclusion of this information appears to
insinuate that collecting a significant number of firearms might indicate
abnormal, dangerous behavior, or possibly suggest an individual as a
potential serial killer.
Such implications could suggest that anyone amassing a large firearms
collection might pose law enforcement concerns. Alternatively, it could
highlight Commissioner Harrison's apparent anti-gun stance and Fox News's
changing reporting style, which seems to be gradually aligning with CNN's.
If firearms are relevant to this story, it could be pointed out that the
victims, all petite women, were powerless against the alleged attacker. The
suspect, Rex Heuermann, is reportedly 6-foot-6 inches tall and weighs 275
pounds. The argument here is that a self-defense weapon could have leveled
the playing field during a physical confrontation and possibly prevented the
accused attacker from claiming more victims. Notably, New York laws impede
the possession of such self-defense weapons.
The developing narrative appears to suggest a certain profiling: individuals
who collect guns and are physically larger than average could be considered
suspect. It also extends to political affiliations, with
National Zero
highlighting that the suspected killer is a registered Republican who has
professional ties to the Trump Organization.
Such tactics, including derogatory comments about conservatives, reveal an
intention to mobilize public anger against those who don't agree with the
entire "progressive" agenda. Particularly, there's a noticeable endorsement
of
Gavin Newsom's proposed "28th Amendment,"
which aims to significantly limit the Second Amendment. The inclination to
associate gun owners with heinous criminals seems to be a strategy used by
those advocating for stricter gun controls and the media outlets supporting
them.
