Bodies Are Stacking Up as Progressive Politicians Blame Everything but Themselves

Police officers are being shot nationwide. A young girl in Chicago took two stray bullets to the head and died. Thus far this year, the nation has had 27 mass shootings.

Who or what is to blame? That depends on whom you ask, and sometimes, which news outlet is reporting.

New York State

New York’s “progressive” governor, Kathy Hochul, blames “illegal guns” for the recent shootings of two New York City Police Department (NYPD) officers, one of whom died. He was a 22-year-old rookie.

“We have a moral obligation to do everything we can to fight the scourge of illegal guns on our streets,” Hochul said in a statement. “Too many lives have been lost because of illegal firearms that should never have been on our streets.”

The cop-killer, Lashawn McNeil, used a gun he wasn’t legally allowed to own, with a 50-round drum magazine that is illegal in New York state.

So, who or what is to blame? Spoiler alert: the illegal gun didn’t load and fire itself. Maybe guns aren’t the real scourge here.

Sure it did...it's called a "Baldwin" when that happens. Oh, and no one can be held responsible because "it's the gun's fault."

Just about every time a heinous crime happens...we find it was committed by someone who really should have been in jail already and is not...because of lax demoncratic law policies.
