The Dishonesty of the Gun-control Mob

It’s so predictable, maybe we should start calling it “Gun Control Day.”

Like the movie “Groundhog Day,” it happens again and again after a mass shooting, like the one at a July 4th parade near Chicago that killed seven people and wounded two dozen.

The professional anti-gun mob – i.e., liberal Democrats and the major media outlets – immediately spring into action and exploit the tragedy as much as they can.

As they did this week, they automatically blame guns, renew their calls for stricter gun reforms or dream about completely outlawing the private ownership of guns.

It doesn’t matter if the mass shooter was crazy, a terrorist or just plain evil, the gun-control nuts are as unrealistic and dishonest as they are predictable.

If we’d only outlaw handguns and “weapons of war” like the semi-automatic AR-15, they cry again and again, these bloody mass killings and street shootouts would virtually disappear.

Their problem is not with firearms but they can’t tolerate people who don’t agree with them. About anything.

Then can’t tolerate people who might fight back with firearms. They want to steamroll over anyone who disagrees with them.

Unleash a horde of released criminals, illegal aliens, random middle easterners and Africans, crash the economy...unleash Antifa and BLM terror and riots squads. Unleash a wave of incel doped up homos and penis choppers, start a war with Russia, engage in an orgy of unrestrained money printing, etc etc...

And you think I’m turning in my gun? Here’s my finger...

“If we’d only outlaw handguns and “weapons of war” like the semi-automatic AR-15”

Actually the reason Americans have them is because they -would- function well as a weapon of war. The Second Amendment isn’t about duck hunting and target shooting.

If you blame the tool, you are a tool. NOT you.😁✌. You get the sentiment.

Maybe if we stopped teaching kids to hate each other because of the color of their skin-which they have NO POWER to change-and stop telling them they are the wrong sex-whichever they are-and get down to teaching reading writing and arithmetic things might improve. After 12-15 years of this no wonder so many kids are mentally challenged and libs did it to them and for what? So that they can normalize abhorrent behavior. Any adult who talks to young kids about sex is a pedophile. Schools are ripe for the picking. And “parents” are the domestic terrorists? Remember dems did this. Vote accordingly. No side is perfect but this is sick.
And then when the kids are a little active they put them on meds. And after they are good and messed up they take a gun and then people are all upset about the gun.
How about we teach kids kindness nd gentleness and caring for each other. Teach education and how to make each other better. Guns have been around forever. Shootings are a recent phenomenon. Just since the schools have been teaching hate and violence and yet you all want to blame the gun. Wake up. DEMS are the violent ones and have taught our kids to hate, be violent and that life is expendable. Dems have done a good job teaching violence and hate. Now we know how doing that ends.

I was blocked on FB by someone I’d known for decades. They shared a photo of a cop pointing an 870 at Portland protestors, and called it a weapon of war. I countered with “It’s a weapon of duck hunting.” Boom. Gone. :)

It doesn’t help that the Thunbergs and AOCs of the world have sold them the bill of goods that they’ll be living in hell on Earth by the time they hit thirty.

All the elements needed to defeat the gun-haters are in your post.

Call them animals, goosestepping Nazis, murderers, racists, Hitler sympathizers, child molesters, rapists, liars...

Make the leftists defend themselves....

Have you noticed that every time they lose ground, we experience another of these shootings?
