My theory is that liberals think people are all basically good, so if they do bad things, it's because something in their environment made them do a bad thing. So fix the environment -- e.g., make guns harder to get -- you fix the problem.

Except that the premise is wrong, so the conclusion is also wrong. People aren't made to do bad things by inanimate objects in their environment, they do bad things because of the world, the flesh, and the devil.

My theory is that liberals think people are all basically good . . . .

My theory is that liberals have impulse controls problems and believe everyone else are just like them.

My theory is that liberals think people are all basically good...

There ya go. I've been saying that for years. The biggest problem with liberals is their "flower child" mentality that people are basically good. Not since the big fall in the Garden. The only power I know of to redeem people and make them acceptable human beings is the power of Jesus Christ.
