Former Pa. Gov. (Rendell): The ‘Good Thing’ About Newtown Is That it Was ‘So Horrific,’
The Blaze ^ | Jan. 11th, 2013 | Becket Adams

“The good thing about Newtown is, it was so horrific that I think it galvanized Americans to a point where the intensity on our side is going to match the intensity on their side,” said the former mayor, referring to the current debate between gun control advocates and supporters of the Second Amendment.

The left always uses the blood of the innocent. If it cannot find any blood, it will make it. That is who these people are.

How was the event "horrific?"

No one has seen so much as a blood droplet or broken window at the school, and instead we are fed a bunch of lies and faked emotions from the "survivors."

Horrific lies, perhaps....

>> Not nearly as horrific as the dozens of school children Obama slaughtered with unmanned drones in Afganistan.

I missed that report.

And for all we know the perpetrator, as crazy as he was, was also anti-gun. Maybe his goal was to perform an act of terrorism so horrible that it would lead to gun control.

We did not need to see the blood or broken glass. We saw the graves. What survivors were faking their emotions? The parents who buried their children?

Someone needs to communicate to Ed Rendell how different things might have been if the Principal had had a handgun in her top drawer and somebody in that office, even the custodian, had had the wherewithal to pull it out and use it and keep the perp busy for just a few minutes until the police arrived.

As with all progressives (aka Communists), “the ends justify the means”, so a few dead people (children if more horrific) advance the agenda, all the better. I’m not a conspiracy freak, but the commonality of these shootings is getting suspicious. Each in Arizona, Colorado, California and Connecticut, all have common factors: 20 something year old video game addicts, losers with no girlfriends and social skills, mentally deficient or maladjusted, mamma’s boys living at home or just pushed out, etc. Government experimentation in remote mind control or hypnosis? A doctor friend (psychologist) explained the fun they had in school hypnotizing people and how easy it was, especially easy in some cases because the subjects were extremely susceptible to hypnosis. They would hypnotize these types in a matter of seconds in a simple conversation. Now what would a government be capable of doing if they were trying to invalidate the 2nd amendment. Consider Fast and Furious which was an obvious ploy that was only partially successful before it was exposed. Again, “the ends justify the means”.

How do we know Sandy Hook wasn’t a plot masterminded by foreigners, to ‘forward’ 0bama’s totalitarian agenda for the United States? Gee, how convenient that evidence of such a plot would be erased along with Adam’s hard drive. Rendell’s comments illustrate that ‘the ends justify the means’. SICK.

He’s no better than the men that pulled the triggers on those babies.
I’m still not convinced this wasn’t a subversive govt. operation to promote the very reason this moron is spouting off.

You know, I always considered Fast Eddie Rendell to be a slimewad.

He never fails to prove me wrong.

What a lowlife piece of human garbage...who the HELL thinks like that???

Oh, wait - a typical Democrat thinks like that...I forgot.

“The good thing about Newtown is, it was so horrific that I think it galvanized Americans to a point where the intensity on our side is going to match the intensity on their side,”

~OR to put it another way ~

Never let a crisis go to waste.

Completely. Either a bunch of actors or all of the village people are from a Stephen King novel ... or pod people... or Stepford families. Never seen such a bunch of bad acting, zero tears, and chipper/happiness from the “families.”

I didn’t see any graves (if you did, do you know that it’s the children they claim who are buried there), no one was wheeled out in stretchers, the parents never saw the “dead children,” it wasn’t even the gun the coroner says was used, and there are at least 50 other quite obvious inconsistencies with the fabricated stories.

Here’s just one of the most obvious ones, 32 seconds:

From there, you can watch many others about the hoax/staged parts/suspcious event to remove innocent people’s guns.
