Thank You, Mr. Darwin

Natural selection claims two victims, one dead and one probably on the way to the big house:

LAKEWOOD – A Lakewood man is dead after he was stabbed in the chest. Police say the man was killed during a failed demonstration of a protective vest Friday.

Investigators say 26-year-old Gabriel Aranda and his 32-year-old uncle Amando Aranda were debating whether the vest would adequately shield a knife attack at a home at 9940 W. 20th Ave. in Lakewood.

Gabriel Aranda was wearing the vest when his uncle stabbed him, killing him.

As I am one to always look for that silver lining, it pleases me that at least they got their answer.
