Demos Don’t Want More Gun Control; They Want More Massacres 

Yes, that’s a very strong statement, and it could easily be construed as incendiary rhetoric. Let’s examine the facts though. Liberal Democrats never let a tragedy go to waste. Each and every time there is an incident involving gun violence, they give it as much coverage as they possibly can, and actually use the grieving victims many times before their loved ones are even buried. It’s scary, not to mention horribly awful and beyond insensitive. I can’t help but think of President Obama himself flying to Sandy Hook in Air Force One in order to give a ride to those he could use, by parading the grieving parents in front of Congress. It’s one of the most sickening and disturbing sights I’ve ever seen, and I never imagined a President of this country would stoop so low.

This simply highlights the lengths to which Liberal Democrats will go, in order to take away the second amendment. The problem is that the majority of large media outlets are liberal leaning, some far more than others. The one things they seem to have in common is a unified cause. That cause is ignoring, and in most cases refusing to pick up or run stories which prove guns can save lives. Take for instance the recent incident which occurred in Orrville Alabama on Thursday, January 16th 2014. When a deranged gunman walked into the local Dollar General with a rifle, firing a shot in the air and threatening to kill everyone in the store. That is until a customer who happened to be carrying a handgun, which by the way the anti-gun lefties would absolutely love to see banned across the nation. This law abiding citizen fired one round into the chest of the would-be murderer, ending this potential disaster before it even got started. You won’t hear about this on the national news, unless it’s the one station which actually reports the news, the mainstream media will not. The reason is because stories like this show the real purpose, and reason for which we have the second amendment in the first place.

This is why Liberal Democrats don’t want more gun control, what they truly want is more massacres. If they get more massacres they can exploit those victims, and their grieving families to get far more than gun control laws passed. They can use those horrible incidents to get guns banned. Which ideally is their ultimate goal. Of course they won’t outright admit to this unless you manage to catch them slipping up, and being overly honest as Sen Dianne Feinstein has done on more than one occasion.

This is another serious problem that the Left wing liberals have. They simply cannot admit to the people what their ultimate goals are, unless you manage to catch them on one of the rare occasions they are being truly honest.

One of the most ironic things about the entire anti-gun movement is that the vast majority of facts and figures used by the left are simply wrong. For instance Sen Ken De Leon, a Democrat from Los-Angeles, recently went on an anti-gun tirade in which he literally stated “30 magazine clip” and that the weapon he is holding is capable of firing 30 rounds in half a second, which comes to over 3000 rounds a minute, a rate of fire that is just not possible, literally the barrel of the gun would melt, yes melt, it would get so hot. The only weapons even capable of coming close to that rate of fire are mini guns, or rotary cannons, weapons which have multiple barrels which spin around in order to keep cool and have an enormous rate of fire. But this simply highlights what those on the Left do most often, which is open their mouths to spout off absolutely incorrect statements. It’s not that they simply make mistakes, I’d have sympathy if they were honest errors. The amount of mistakes made by these people however is simply unforgivable. One would be hard pressed to think it’s not intentional, or due to a lack of care about the accuracy of their information. The only thing they care about is persuading the public to support their misguided claim.

If you take the time to do the research, if you truly have an open mind, you cannot help but come to the conclusion that guns are far more beneficial than detrimental. It’s the reason the founding fathers felt so strongly about them that they didn’t include them in the 7th, or 8th amendment, they included them in the second. The only thing more important to them was the right to free speech. Think about that for a moment. Also think about the fact that the most restrictive metropolitan cities in the country when it comes to guns and gun ownership, are also the ones with the highest murder rate, and violent crime rate. The ones with the least restrictive gun control laws, just so happen to be some of the safest. On the other side of the ocean, those countries that have banned guns, and those who have moved here, including one prominent media figure cite firearm murder rates in the double digits. Which is such a misleading factoid. Obviously if you ban something, it will no longer be used. What they don’t want to admit to, and always leave out is that in England for example, while their deaths by firearms are in the double digits, their violent crime rate, is nearly double the average of what it is here in the USA. So in other words, if you ban firearms nationwide, those who intend to kill, rape, mug or murder won’t just stop because they cannot get a gun, instead, they’ll turn to other means, baseball bats, clubs, knives, axes. It’s one of the reasons why in England you must be over the age of 18 to buy cutlery. Yes, you heard that right, in some stores you must actually be over the age of 18 to buy a butter knife. This is where we’re going as a nation should the anti-gun left manage to implement their agenda.

It won’t just stop with the banning of hand guns, it won’t stop with the banning of certain rifles. When they ban those, and the murder rate doesn’t drop, their solution will be to ban more, and then more, until they are all gone. The answer to stopping crime, is not to punish those who do not break the laws. The only thing you do by banning firearms, is prevent those who actually obey the law from owning them. Not the people who have no problems with breaking the laws to begin with. Also unfortunately unlike England the US doesn’t have an ocean surrounding it, there are thousands of miles of border that can easily be crossed to smuggle guns into this country. If we can’t stop millions of illegal immigrants from entering this country what makes anyone in their right mind think we can stop millions of illegal weapons?

Preventing law abiding citizens from owning guns is absolutely not going to reduce crime in any way. Just as plastering signs which state “gun free zone” don’t seem to do anything to stop gun toting maniacs from entering schools.

To stop gun violence, you need more good guys with guns to stop the bad guys with guns. It’s just that simple. The last thing this country needs is less good guys to stop the bad guys.
