Mass shootings are a tragedy. No one disagrees about that. But there is a hidden factor in mass shootings that anti-2A people like Joe Biden and company and the mainstream media don’t want you to know.
To explain that hidden factor, though, we’ll need to go back to a mass shooting that happened in a church in Texas back in November 2017.
In that shooting, Devin Patrick Kelley went to a church and killed 26 people and wounded 22 others. You read that right: 48 people shot with over half of those people dying. Here’s what you may not know: Kelley wasn’t legally able to purchase a gun, but because of the government’s error, he did. James Doubek writes,
The shooter, Devin Patrick Kelley, was court-martialed for assaulting his then-wife and stepson in 2012 while he was in the Air Force. He was discharged in 2014. Under federal law, his conviction should have prevented him from legally buying guns.
But he was able to purchase an AR-556 rifle that he used in the massacre.
It’s true. A failure in gun control enforcement enabled Kelley to do horrible things.
There is a small bit of justice, though. Again, from Doubek:
[Judge Xavier] Rodriguez ruled last July that the Air Force, represented as the U.S. government in the case, was “60% responsible” for the shooting because of a mistake that led to Kelley’s name being left off of an FBI database.
Once more from Doubek:
The U.S. government must pay victims and families of victims of a 2017 Texas church massacre more than $230 million, [Rodriguez] ruled on Monday [January 31, 2022].
Now, $230 million is a lot of money, but it doesn’t even begin to make up for the pain and suffering caused by Kelley. And, remember: it was the failure of gun control that enabled this guy to do evil things.
So, anytime someone tries to tell you that gun control saves lives, point them to this story. Gun control didn’t stop an evil man, but an armed civilian scared off the evil man and saved lives. Gun control didn’t save any lives at this church. A legal gun owner did.
You can’t tell the left that guns don’t kill people. People kill people kill people. Huwever the left wants to disarm people for a different reason. Can you guess what it is ?
Here’s how you fix this but you have no balls or they are very small.
When someone shoots people in mass the fucked government should put that bastard on trail quickly and if found guilty he should be hung in a public place.
Then the other dudes might not want that to happen to them.
But your mind is in protecting the guilty. Thank you
Absolutely right.
Taking of the guns has nothing to do with protecting you from criminals. It will more likely resemble something out of the Ukraine invasion! Tlotolatarion governments need a populace that are unarmed. If your dumb enough to surrender your guns, you not smart enough to keep your Freedom!
I was 18 in 1963 when President Kennedy was shot. I heard it on the radio on the way in from work. The first thought that went through my mind WAS “NOW THEY WILL TRY TO TAKE OUR GUNS.” And there was a push then to do that. Fast forward today. Yes they want them and NO they will not GET THEM. For the reason stated above.
