They are waiting until there is some national level tragedy, the loss of life involving firearms, to introduce and then pass legislation banning guns.

This logic has always escaped me. What on earth does a microscopic percentage of people committing an extraordinarily rare crime have anything whatever to do with the criminalization and seizure of the guns of sixty million law abiding citizens? The very scale of this fraud is utterly insane.

Since when has there been logic in politics? It has nothing to do with logic.

The government and their propaganda will promote the idea that guns kill people. And the government will make the promise of security in exchange for freedom. Benjamin Franklin saw this trick used time and time again back in his day. And he’s known for the famous quote to warn future society of it.

George Soros is a billionaire. They’re very well funded.

Do not underestimate these people. They most certainly will do anything to get their way.

Your problem is that you're thinking rationally rather than emotionally like most people apparently do. It's not the crime, it's the propaganda that people respond to - frightened people who have lost the ability to think rationally will accede to anything.

That sure puts it in perspective.
