Why is it that every time some mental case shoots people, the first reaction of our politicians is to try to take everyone’s guns who DIDN’T commit the crime?

That’s a rhetorical question, because all of the most serious gun-grabbers are extreme liberals, all of whom believe that the government should rule us, rather than have the government serve us...and if we get too uppity about how they’re spending our money or how they’re regulating us to death, then they don’t want to face any resistance when they send their goons to drag us off to jail.

The analogy is that of MADD trying to prevent drunk driving by making it difficult or impossible for sober drivers to purchase automobiles.

I can answer this because I’ve been around plenty of people that are of the anti-gun crowd; they all share one trait - They have NEVER fired any firearm. They simply side with the gun control lobby because they are scared of them and they think it is the trend for the more educated and want to be percieved as being more intelligent than YOU. It has NOTHING to do with reality or logic. They are naively stupid and don’t consider the real reason that a tyrant would have for disarming the people. They blindly trust their government and think big Daddy will always have their best interests at heart. Try to get them to tell you what all the Amendments of the Constitution are and they are at a loss for words except for the first two. Ask them about U.S. History and what led to the Constitution and they have no clue.
