Government cannot solve mass shootings

In the aftermath of the Dayton, Ohio and El Paso, Texas mass shootings, a political firestorm is brewing and liberal politicians have law-abiding gun owners in their sights.

In response to the shootings, President Donald Trump announced he now is looking for “very meaningful background checks” and repudiated “white supremacy.” He said he also believes lawmakers will support “red flag” laws that allow guns to be removed from those who may be a danger to themselves and others. But Democrats still blamed the president for the shootings.

Joe Biden accused Trump of fanning the flames of white supremacy. “We have a president with a toxic tongue who has publicly and unapologetically embraced the political strategy of hate, racism and division,” said Biden.

President Trump is not to blame for the recent shootings. In fact, he has done more to bring people together than any other president in recent history. No matter how many times Trump denounces “white supremacy,” Democrats and the liberal media will label him a “racist” in order to put a wedge between him and the American people.

“White supremacy” is a myth which exists in the minds of angry, godless Democrats who use it as a tool to scare blacks to the polls and make decent whites recoil with guilt.

Louis Farrakhan believes the black race is superior, yet Farrakhan is not labeled a black supremacist. Why? Because it doesn’t conjure up images of whites keeping blacks down and it doesn’t advance the Democrats’ agenda.

Compared to ordinary run of the mill Saturday night shootings in the various cities, especially Chicago, the el Paso and Dayton events are trivial

Countless times we have read how relatives, friends, co-workers have REPORTED their concerns over individuals who went on to become mass-shooters. We also read how AUTHORITIES DID NOTHING TO STOP THEM. We don’t need Red Flag Laws.. We need FBI and other law enforcement agencies to DO THEIR JOB!
It always seems to be citizens who are catching these monsters before and even after they attack..
Yet they get none of the credit!

Government can’t stop mass KILLINGS.

Guns are not the only tool used by those who want to murder. Knives, bombs and arson are used all over the world by those without access to guns.

After the bumpstock ban, I believe they will infringe until we surrender our rights or go to prison.
Mind you, the bumpstock ban went through whithout a loud whisper...
As will “ common sense” gun control.
Keep compromising America.. Like an abusive husband, maybe they will stop choking you, if you just give in.

Want to violate the Constitution to fix mass shootings?

Because ONLY returning to God can stop the violence!
