Nicolle Wallace's Plea for Laws Against 'Illegal Guns' Is Peak MSM Lunacy

In Thursday's installment of her MSNBC Show "Deadline: White House," Nicolle Wallace had what the mainstream media would likely consider a brilliant idea to reduce the number of shootings taking place in America: simply make illegal guns... more illegal. And Wallace is apparently peeved that Democrats haven't thought of taking such action before.

"If the Supreme Court has green-lit vigilantism," Wallace claimed, "why hasn't the left come out with laws about illegal guns?" she questioned. Yes, really:

First, how does she think a gun becomes illegal? Laws, of course. So the firearms she's speaking of have already had laws passed prohibiting their ownership within the Democrat cities or states she's now urging to, again, make them more illegal.

She repeatedly used the term "illegal guns" and once invoked spookily named "ghost guns" in her inquisition about why Democrats haven't passed laws similar to the pro-life abortion restrictions enacted by conservative lawmakers — ones Wallace called "vigilante" laws.

Well here's a nicer version of a name for illegal guns, around here they call then "Neighborhood" guns, sounds nice doesn't it, kinda homey. Kids use them to kill other gang members because not everyone can afford their very own.

Liberals have this childlike, talismanic faith in "laws," as if passing a law magically makes something happen, or not happen ... hence their hue and cry for government to "do something" every time something goes wrong.

All a law can do is give the government the authority to punish some behavior. If the government doesn't, or can't, use that authority, it does nothing. If the punishment isn't severe enough to deter the behavior, again it does nothing.

Someone who is willing to commit murder, that is, who isn't deterred by the already very severe penalties for murder, isn't going to be deterred by some stupid gun law.

................................................

The party that came up with, “Deplorables”, “Latinix” and “Ultra MAGA”, should be able to come up with something better than “illegal guns” and “ghost guns”.

Help them out fellow Patriots!

I think we’re going to need sanctuaries for ‘undocumented’ guns.

It worked so well with drugs, one can almost never hear about drug abuse.

...simply make illegal guns... more illegal...

This is a fantastic idea! ;-/

Obviously a criminal who is already prepared to break a dozen or more laws, multiple counts of multiple felonies will be deterred by just one more law.

"What I'm about to do violates 14 laws? Great, here I come! ... Oh, wait, there's a 15th law in place now forbidding this? ... Oh, ok, I'll go back home to mom's basement..." -- said no criminal ever.

The very notion is so ludicrous as to border on the insane. But it makes perfect sense when you realize the true intent behind such proposals and laws. The goal is complete civilian disarmament. They know they can't get there all at once. But they can chip away at our freedoms, liberties, and rights little by little with "common sense gun laws" etc. Not only are these proposals and laws un-Constitutional, they are intentionally in-effective. They do not want "gun control" laws - or any other laws for that matter - that actually reduce crime or violence. Crime and violence provides them the excuse to continue to put forth an ongoing stream of laws designed to chip away at our rights. Actual success would be a disaster for them. They'd have to leave us alone, and they don't want that. They want power and control.

...your fingers on the keyboard are faster than mine...!! indeed, with the possibility of some very rare exceptions, there is no such thing as an “illegal” gun.....let’s say a convicted felon is in possesion of a very nice Beretta 92FS, a great gun....the gun is NOT illegal, but his having that gun in his possession as a convicted felon is illegal.... Nicolle Wallace is typical of the air-head journalists [sic] we see every day on the boob tube.....

To her all guns are illegal if they are not in the possession of the government or the people she hires to protect her.

If those damn guns would quit sneaking out at night and shooting people there wouldn’t be any problem.

She is such a stupid, airhead progressive — but I repeat myself— she thinks things liberals don’t like are “illegal” for that reason. Bad Republicans and courts are the only reason people still have illegal guns so we can pass a law to stop them.

Of course it doesn’t make sense, but she’s a progressive. Logic and facts are not needed for her to be “right,”

My pleas to the socialists to make murder illegal are always answered with shouts of “Shut up jerk!”
