Stop Gun Violence? Stop Liberalism First

By Jeffrey T. Brown


When malicious people do harm and then clamor for solutions to their own misdeeds, they will seek someone or something else to blame, lest their own actions and motives be accurately fixed as the cause. For the followers of a destructive ideology, it is never the defects within the ideology, or their irrational theories, or their utter failure to understand cause and effect which bring failure and violence. The fault must always lie with people or things which have absolutely nothing at all to do with the ideological and moral defects of the movement.

The left, as mostly consisting in this country of the politically liberal, vocalizes its hatred for the concept of private gun ownership in direct proportion to its increasing seizure of power. As they have enhanced their control of culture, politics, and discourse, they have similarly increased their open rejection of the right of private gun ownership. It is by no means the only right they have devalued. Speech and religion are significantly curtailed by the left, so that only approved speech, and the government-approved religion of Islam, can be openly encouraged. But gun ownership is the right they hate the most. It is the one which totalitarians always hate the most, since it is the only one that can successfully stop dictatorship. They will limit our speech, and insult our faith, and spy on us, and treat us like cattle. But private gun ownership exists to prevent total victory for tyranny.

As liberals preach to us about their virtue in wishing an end to “gun violence”, their sanctimony is both obnoxious and absurd.

Sigh, not to nit pick but..guns don't cause violence, also there is no such thing as gun crime, illegal gun, etc.

Attaching emotional descriptors to crimes involving weapons, is only to mislead and cause the obvious emotional response to an object instead of the perpetrators of said crime.

Following this logic the following countries should be tyrannys:

(guns per 100 residents)

Japan  .6
South Korea 1.1
Poland 1.3
Bolivia 2.8
Ireland 4.3
Philippines 4.7
United Kingdom 6.6
Israel 7.3 (same amount as Iran)
Brazil 8
Portugal 8.5
Switzerland 25
etc. etc

Good ole USA is 112.6(leader of the pack)

Third in the pack is Yemen with 54.8(a real model of democracy) with Iraq proudly coming in 7th place.(nice)

It's not weapons that enslave or free people. It's people, both those willing to be enslaved and those willing to enslave. Your parroted thesis is riddled with holes.

If you're so enamored with these other countries you might want to move there.

Tell me when and where you're leaving and I might come and wave bye-bye :D

These Gun Violence Stats Are So Simple Even the New York Times Can Get Them

By Kyle Becker (7 days ago)  | Crime

The New York Times just ran a frontpage editorial on gun rights in America – the first such editorial since the 1920s. Its argument is simple to grasp: Americans’ gun rights should be curtailed by the government.


We’ll put aside for now that rights are inherent to human beings and not governments.

Observe the chart above. This graphic from FactCheck.org. Observe that gun ownership is up — contrary to an “independent study” by the Violence Policy Center circulated by Huffington Post and other publications.

In fact, gun homicides are at their lowest level since 1981, with 8,124 such murders. There are over 330 million Americans in the United States, meaning 99.995% of guns are not used in homicides.

I don't know if you're being obtuse on purpose, or if it's by some miracle of genetics, but, point taken either way - please don't reproduce.

And by the way, people generally don't buy guns out of some misplaced sense of doom outside their windows and doors, or out of some patriotic sense of duty to the Second Amendment. They buy guns because they like guns. Period. They might occasionally wish to use them on other human beings, but that's mostly about some deep-seeded sick hatred of themselves and others. It's not about threats, real or imagined, or some image of Charleton Heston's cold, dead hands, or any other one of the reasons the Negro-hating Klan whackjobs in our midst purport. It's simply about hate. And perhaps being somewhat lacking in the manhood department. So why don't you gun nutters stop peeing on our collective leg all the while saying it's raining?

I like guns, too. I have Expert Marksmanship badges in practically every weapons system the Army could throw at me. It doesn't mean I want to build a shrine to them, or vehemently defend them as though they're some disenfranchised ethnic group.

When you self-proclaimed Christians realize that hate never got anyone into Heaven, you'll understand what I said. Meanwhile, keep up that Klan rhetoric. I'm sure God just eats that sh!t up.
