Crime: CNN Buys Into Liberal Pols' Focus on Guns, Not Criminals

Liberals like to mock people offering "thoughts and prayers" in response to deadly shootings. But liberals themselves invariably trot out a largely useless approach to such tragedies. They focus on guns, not the criminals who use them.

CNN then aired a clip of NYC Mayor Eric Adams announcing that he is going to:

"Reinstitute a newer version of a plainclothes, modified plainclothes, anti-gun unit."

Just consider that bureaucratic gobbledygook. Nothing new. No "change." Just a dusted-off, repackaged, "newer, modified version" of a solution that didn't work before and won't work now. And Prokupecz reported that it's "unclear" how many officers will be in this recycled unit . . . or what they will actually do! Certainly sounds like a formula for success!

Next, CNN aired a clip of New York Governor Hochul, who announced the first meeting of an interstate "illegal-gun task force."

Great! Because when you want to solve a tough problem, there's nothing like another multi-governmental "task force!"

Many now wait for them to vome and take their firearms. It should be interesting to say the least.
