After every mass shooting, the left always invites us to join them in their insanity to participate in yet another circular argument about gun control.
Its not because they care.
If they really cared, they would think before they speak after tragedies.
Shortly after the Las Vegas shooting, now-fired CBS top legal executive, Hayley Geftman-Gold said, Im actually not even sympathetic bc [sp] country music fans often are Republican gun toters.
Atheist Richard Dawkins tweeted his sentiments, obviously mocking southerners: Durn tootin, great shootin. Cool dude sertin hes 2nd Memdment rahts. Hell yeah!
CNN was true to form. Senior White House correspondent Jeff Zeleny reminded everyone: Something else, I think to keep in mind, a lot of these country music supporters are likely Trump supporters.
If they really cared, Democrats would look in the mirror and stop pointing fingers.
Its OK to be enraged that Stephen Paddock transformed semiautomatics into quasi-machine guns using a bump stock device. Its not OK to blame it on Republicans. Back in 2010 when Democrats controlled Washington, Obamas ATF legalized the bump stocks the Las Vegas shooter used.
If Democrats cared, they would quit throwing NRA daggers across the aisle.
After the Las Vegas shooting, Hillary Clinton (and way too many others) insinuated that GOP leaders are puppets of the National Rifle Association. Their basis for that nonsense is that the NRA donated around $3.6 million to Congress members (on both sides of the aisle) over a twenty-year period.
Even if NRA donations were for GOP candidates alone, compare that to what Planned Parenthood affiliates spent for the 2016 election cycle alone. The nonpartisan Center for Responsive Politics reports they spent $4,044.378 in contributions, $1,368.408 in lobbying and $15,041,417 in outside spending.
So, who is puppeteering whom?
During a recent Senate Floor speech, Sen. Chuck Schumer (D-NY) spoke for the dead in Las Vegas, suggesting if they could speak, they would tell President Trump to do something about the NRA, which incidentally is responsible for zero deaths.
While its common knowledge that dead people tend to vote for Democrats, Im not sure if Schumer is the right spokesperson, given his party supports abortion, which is responsible for the almost 60 million pre-born baby deaths in the U.S. since Roe v Wade.
If they really cared about gun violence and deaths, Democrats would find real solutions.
Its clear that very restrictive gun laws have done little to curtail the gun violence in Chicago, where the Las Vegas death toll is just another month on the calendar.
The Chicago Tribune reports that in 2016, Chicago had 4368 shootings. The city also had 761 murders. As of this writing, 529 people have been murdered this year, including 59 in September, reports DNAInfo.com.
Where were Jimmy Kimmels crocodile tears for the 761 people murdered in Chicago last year? Wheres the outcry from Democrats that 4368 people were shot in 2016 and for the 529 murdered this year?
Those lives matter too.
If Democrats cared, they would stop pounding away on the Second Amendment with their proverbial sledgehammers after mass shootings.
Obviously, not everyone who lives here appreciates that America was founded on Judeo-Christian values and the U.S. Constitution. Chipping-away at it inches them closer to the goal of breaching the foundation to make America fall.
Chip away all they will, but the only thing certain to crumble is their ideology, based on a lie that they do what they do because they care.
Saying they were republicans so they deserved it is like saying Chicago’ s gun violence victims were going to prison anyway.
Let the dead get buried first.
As always the Rats want ALL the guns.
I'm certain that Stephen Paddock felt the same way, and decided to do something about the problem.
If the left really cared about people, they should reconsider their constant culture of promoting victimhood through scapegoating. Of course, the left has a long history of scapegoating groups of people and then killing them off, so I'm not looking for any change in violent leftist rhetoric any time soon.
They want all the guns taken away from all the people.
If Paddock were a Muslim the refrain would be, “Now don’t blame all Muslims for the actions of a few fanatics”.
On one site a Muslim wrote “Of course I blame all infidel gun owners for this. If you are an infidel and have a gun, you are dangerous whenever you are awake”.
Molon labe, Achmed!
