Most Americans know that leftists never hesitate to use the power of the State to kill or imprison those who disagree with them. American leftists are no different than leftists in other nations.
Rahm has roughly 7 days a week to use the violins of the previous day in Chicago's South Side to push for gun control....
We have a new dynamic today. Americans have been on a gun buying binge the last several years the likes we’ve never seen before (thanks to Obama). And guess waht? There has been no corresponding spike in crime and we all know it.
The years of gun control evidence is now clear; Gun control is like trying to solve drunken driving by making it harder for sober people to own cars.
Collectively, we’re just not buying this shit anymore.
How about MENTAL HEALTH control? These tragedies started after the mental health hospitals closed and put the mentally sick loose on the public - and treatment of choice is Prozac, etc, - these shooters have almost 100% been on Prozac and related drugs, which have a PROVEN side effect of suicide and violence.!
Yet none of these sleazy politicians - or the media - mention we need more control and treatment over the mentally ill - and who triggered turning the mentally ill loose on the public? Pres. Jimmy Carter. - which is another reason it's never mentioned. If these mental cases can't get a gun, they use other means - like pipe bombs... It's not the guns. I remember when the mental hospitals were closed - and mentally sick couldn't be committed without THEIR permission! That's like saying the drunk driver can't be arrested without their permission.
post this link everywhere and anywhere you can - There are not many people today who know or remember why the mentally ill not only don't get the treatment THEY need, but who explode with such violence on the Innocent.
And copy/paste this info and email to every media outlet - including FOX and separate FOX commentators, like Briet, O'R and Hannity, and Rush. Leave them with no excuse not to address the real issue here.
First, there are already more than 20,000 gun control laws actively on the books today and none of them prevented this tragedy. Second, millions upon million of people in America own guns and 99.9999% of them have never and will never do anything like this.
So, let’s lose the hysteria and analyze the facts - a PERSON did this, NOT a hunk of steel. In Portland, a PERSON killed two people in the mall, NOT a hunk of steel! In Denver, a PERSON shot up the theater, NOT a hunk of steel!!
NONE of these facts will matter to the gun-grabbing nanny-staters, because they focus solely on the gun and nothing else. So, what happens if ALL guns are outlawed and forcibly collected by the feds? Someone bent on committing mass murder may turn to knives, hatchets, chainsaws or machetes. So, we outlaw those. The next person to commit a heinous crime may use a bat, poison, poison gas or a semi-tractor. And the one after that may use a car, a pen or pencil, a rock, his hands . . . . . . so when do we blame the PERSON and NOT the inanimate weapon!???
The fact remains that until the left understands that murdering humans by ANY means including their favorite method, abortion, human life will be valueless and more copycats will come out to exercise their demented mass murder of innocent people.
All of that said, it occurs to me that the gun-grabbers are from the leftist school of complete control. What that means is that if 1 person commits a gun crime then, under the leftist theory of the “collective” and “groupthink”, they believe that ALL gun owners will commit mass murder unless they eliminate guns (good luck with that!). So, the calls for more gun control by the left after these incidents is twofold - eliminate the “balance of power” the Founding Fathers so carefully wove into the Constitution and gain total control over the people.
Another part that affects all of this is the fact that laws, whether gun laws, robbery laws, or whatever, are written solely to affect law-abiding citizens. People who commit crimes are called “outlaws” and criminals because they DON’T adhere to the laws created to control or stop their illegal activities.
So, should the left create additional gun control laws, will it prevent the next gun-related crime? Of course not. Laws only affect those of us who obey them. Those who disregard the law won’t be stopped from committing whatever crime they want to commit.
As a final note, Adam Alonza did not own the guns he used to murder all of the people at Sandy Hook Elementary. They were his mother’s guns and they were all legally purchased and registered. Which begs the question, what will any NEW gun control laws accomplish?
The leftists murder 50 MILLION ABORTED BABIES. how about protecting the unborn?
The mentally sick man broke strict gun laws. Nothing can stop laws from being broken.
Why is Fedgov giving guns to Al Queda in Syria and Libya, and to the drug cartels in Mexico, and seeking to restrict the R2KBA in the US constitution?
The focus should be on the mentally ill individuals who commit these atrocities. How do we keep them safely away from harming others?
In my opinion it all goes back to PC and the insistence on feelings being more important than anything.
We are now at the point where otherwise sane, logical people FEAR INANIMATE OBJECTS not the people who use them. The people- according to the cowardly PC mentality - must be understood and validated in some way. Yet there must be some blame for murder and tragedy- so it must be the INANIMATE OBJECT.
Following this logic the Muslim terrorists of 9-11 didn’t kill anyone THE PLANE did. How far is this society going to go to avoid blaming people and the evil they do instead of the objects they use to do it?
If no object-such as a gun- is used in a murder, is there no crime? Is the water to blame when people drown their children? Cars to blame in hit and runs and accidents? People are too damned afraid to confront the idea of human evil and responsibility and so they blame THINGS.
If anyone approaches me with the ‘ban evil guns’ argument I tell them ‘ban evil hands’. Murder begins in the mind, it ENDS in the hands. No hands-no murder.
I’ve actually heard people say that legal guns are bad because if people didn’t own them, criminals couldn’t steal them! By that reasoning you shouldn’t own a car-which could be used in a drive-by or accident,or kitchen knives, which could be a murder weapon, or even golf clubs and bricks because they could be used to beat someone to death. So HAVING anything is the problem if it can be used to hurt someone else-and we all know that anything can do that-even sharp pens and household chemicals!
The guns this evil, insane man used to kill those babies HAD not and COULD not kill anyone while they were in his mothers house. HE killed using them. I can sleep with a loaded howitzer pointed at my head every night- and the gun will never kill me. INANIMATE objects cannot be evil.
They can be used to protect-and THAT is the question to ask- why does anyone want the US populace disarmed?
When only the government has guns-we will all be victims.
Sane people lock up their cars, their homes, their belongings to keep them safe, AND protect themselves and their assets with firearms...why can’t we do the same with CHILDREN!!!!???? (Paraphrasing Mark Levin).
If liberals had fought at the Alamo (work with me here) they would have rushed to the west wall if Santa Anna was attacking the east wall, scrambling over it I suppose.
Just the usual hysterical histrionics from the moonbats directed at the 2nd Amendment, which they hate with a red-hot: “We’ll scratch your eyes out!” passion. That’s why.
If we could only get them as concerned about the killings of unborn children—which are going on every day—abortion would be called what it is—murder, instead of a “choice”.
The answer to this violance on school grounds is simple - put an armed guard in each school and shoot the SOB who gets in with a gun.
Excellent, Yash.
All 4 reasons are spot on.
If it doesn’t already, I’ll bet polling will show overwhelming majority support for banning ‘assault weapons’ like the one used in this shooting.
I don’t care about public opinion on this and I oppose bringing back the ‘assault weapons’ ban. I hope the House defeats any attempt to bring it back. But I think it will be hard. The pro-Democrat demographic shifts taking place are bad not only for Republicans but also for the Second Amendment. Most single women, as well as most Hispanics and most Asians are much less supportive of the Second Amendment, and are probably very supportive of banning ‘assault weapons.’
We won’t be able to rely on the Sup Court either. Heller and MacDonald were 5-4 decisions, and will most likely be overturned. And anyway, they didn’t address ‘assault weapons.’ I think it’s a safe bet that either John Roberts or Anthony Kennedy (or both) would okay a ban on ‘assault weapons.’
A very good article!
Pity no one will ever read it.
