What I love about this story is every single player lived up to their stereo type.  Gun nut conservative dad.  Disrespectful liberal daughter.  Busy body neighborhood gossip.  Intrusive liberal social worker.  I was rolling laughing.

That's because stereotypes are real

In the sense that they exist?

In the sense that, while never a literal truth, they usually* have a basis in fact.

*there be excemptions. Oh aye there be. The more removed the people holding the stereotype are from the people it is about, and the lower their opinion of them, the more such excemptions crop up.



Oh, I knew what he meant. He was just being, well, Mike Naso about it.
