Mrs. Emmet and the old .45

Remember the last time you were kind to an old person?

Probably not because… well, you have never been kind to an old person.

Jack Reordan was famously unkind to old people. We called him the Mom-and-Pop Killer.

As a senior community officer, he was supposed to take care of the elderly.

But he actually enjoyed torturing them with his missives and summons and municipal council orders and fiats of recourse and court rulings and so much else a twisted bureaucrat has in his arsenal.

Jack Reordan was a sadist with a typewriter and a public appointment.

He was not alone but he was so severely demented because of his HATE for old people that he stood head and shoulders above his fellow bureaucratic scum.

I don’t really believe in justice but, sometimes, even justice has her ways.

One November morning, Mrs. Emmet, 84, walked into Jack Reordan’s office and put three .45 cal bullets in his sorry head.

He had foreclosed on her home. She foreclosed on his malice.

Mrs. Emmet was acquitted.

.45 does it.
