the calls for making guns illegal after a 'shootin' are akin to the federalies taking your car cause your neighbor drove while drunk. its aimed at the wrong person. then if you have an operating brain you might wonder why it is that this is the way the powers that shouldn't be operate which has been their goal all along. they regularly say that they want to disarm us all, as they did in australia and now you can see what happened there when they had no means left to oppose the crimes committed on australians after they had no guns left;
The deaths of 21 people, including 19 children, at an elementary school in Uvalde, Texas, are a nightmare that I can’t even fathom. It is pure evil.
Yet millions of Americans seem prepared to accept this nightmare as the new normal.
They don’t ask what could turn an 18-year-old boy into a monster who could look innocent children in the face and shoot them to death while dozens others were screaming, while blood splattered and puddled in the classrooms, while his own life ticked down to its final meaningless minute.
They just assume there are more like him – waiting, planning, marking time, ready to do the unthinkable.
And their proposed solution is to take guns away from law-abiding American citizens on the assumption that evil people will be deterred from doing evil if they can’t obtain (take your pick) either long guns or handguns (or both).
Why do I get the feeling these presumably well-intentioned people don’t know what evil is? Don’t they realize that mass murder is never normal? Perhaps more importantly, why do they think that the government can hinder evil by passing new laws that will restrict gun ownership?
The crisis isn’t that children kill other children with guns; the crisis is that children want to kill other children with guns. And more broadly, there is a moral crisis in our country because we teach children that right and wrong are no longer absolutes, that they are rather subjects for debate. And the more we debate right and wrong, the more that evil gains a foothold in our society.......more.........
