We're drowning alright, but the 'sea' ain't made up of guns.
The loathsome creature needs to have a gander in his own backyard, and a hundred just like 'em infesting this nation.
And the mirror, too.

Unfortunately, we are drowning in a sea of breathing Leftists. The solution is going to be
VERY unpleasant.
I used to believe that it can't happen, here. I believed that even Libs could see the ultimate logic in spending no more than you took in, that there is a limit to how much "control" you can inflict on an economy before it starts to crumble, that people are by nature stupid, lazy and evil, and they aren't going to get better any time soon.

We're drowning in a sea of books with a library in every town and a book seller in every mall.
We're drowning in a sea of churches with steeples rising from every valley.
A "sea of guns"? Really? I like it.

Only a fool believes that a gun can make a person commit a crime. But then most Rats are fools.

Let’s be truthful, it’s more like a sea of black criminals. Over half of all violent crimes are committed by blacks, mostly against other blacks, but a disproportionate number against other races.

If guns kill people like the libs claim, shouldn’t we all be dead by now? Something like 98 guns per 100 people. Oh wait, never mind, it just a problem in Dem controlled cities.

RE post 29. Oh, my, you hit the nail on the head.
Crime in the US is centered in liberal run, urban (minority) areas. It's that simple.

Try Jesus rebuke them. See if that will work better than the other. Leaves things up to the one who can really make a difference in their lives. Scribes and Pharisees!
