When Gary Plauche shot Jeff Doucet, on camera, at Baton Rouge airport in 1984, one of the police officers escorting Doucet wailed, “Why, Gary? Why?” Almost every father would know exactly why.

Because Doucet raped Gary Plauche’s young son. That’s why.

Chris Pratt doesn’t need to ask “why?”, either.

Actor Chris Pratt told Men’s Journal that he thinks all fathers imagine how they would respond if someone did anything to their children.

Most of us know how we would respond, too. As Pratt says: Where’s the duct tape and how deep is the trunk?

“I think every dad secretly fantasizes about what they would do if someone ever f***** with their kids. Your partner sees you staring off into the distance and says, ‘Honey, what are you thinking about?’ And you say, ‘Oh, nothing.’ But what you’re really thinking is, Where’s the duct tape and how deep is the trunk? I think that’s most dads. Or maybe that’s just me and I’m revealing something here!” Pratt said. “But as someone who’s talked to a lot of dads, I think we all ask ourselves what we would do. That’s one of the reasons Liam Neeson‘s movie Taken was such a hit. Us dads are just like, ‘Yes! Get ’em! Use that special set of skills.'”

The masculine urge to protect is one of the fundamental biological underpinnings of human society, along with masculine physical strength.

Or it was.

Because we — in the West at least — live in an increasingly emasculated culture. In a culture which literally refuses to even recognise the biological reality of sexual dimorphism, the masculine urge to protect is decried as “toxic”.

“Some critic said something like it was an ‘unhinged revenge fantasy.’ And, to be honest, that’s exactly what it is in a way. Whenever you’re put in a position, or even imagine a position, where those kids are in danger, your mind goes to wild places. I mean if I was put through the situations that James was in, I would probably do the same f*** thing. I think that’s why those storylines resonate so strongly with fathers,” Pratt said, according to the outlet.

Most fathers, anyway. On the other hand, there are the mystifying — to me, and I’ve no doubt to a great many other men — cases of men who choose to “forgive” and “empathise” with the monsters who rape and murder their sons, daughters and wives. Scandinavia, once home to one of the most fearsome warrior cultures in history, now produces men so weak that they weep for foreign invaders who rape them.

These pathetic worms are held up as paragons of virtue by the left-elite.

Meanwhile, it’s surely only a matter of time before Chris Pratt is cancelled? They’ve already tried once, because he has the unmitigated gall to be a Christian. Defending masculinity is surely inching his tumbril along just that bit more.

Especially when he hates the planet so much that he wants to put more humans on it.

Pratt disagreed with the idea that people should delay having children, suggesting exactly the opposite.

“People say all the time, ‘Don’t rush to have kids.’ I personally disagree. Rush. Have them. Of course, make sure you find a great partner, but don’t wait,” he said, according to the outlet.

The Blaze

As we know, having children is the great maturing moment for men. Men who become fathers — not just impregnate women and then disappear, but actually stay around to be fathers — are more mature, stable and dependable.

No wonder the left welfare state does everything in its power to undermine fatherhood.
