There comes a time when the people who keep blaming others for an evil in the world have to be made to answer the question of how they’ve done in preventing that evil.
If it wasn’t already that time, after the horrible failure of gun control laws to prevent the Buffalo, New York mass shooting, it is definitely now time for us to put that question to anti-2A people.
What do I mean? I mean very simply, where is the proof that gun control has decreased the number of deaths, not just gun deaths, but murder rates overall?
And our immediate question: If red flag laws work, then, why wasn’t the Buffalo shooter stopped before he was able to pull the trigger?
Wait, you mean, you haven’t heard about that failure on their part? I’m not surprised. Matt Vespa gives us details of this infuriating failure:
Yet, there’s another common element with this story [with other mass shooters]: the shooter exhibited red flags that authorities knew about but did nothing.
[Buffalo, New York shooter Payton] Gendron threatened to shoot up his high school and was brought in for a mental health evaluation.
Carolyn Thompson and Michael Balsamo write,
New York State Police said troopers were called early last June to the high school then attended by the alleged gunman, Payton Gendron, for a report that a 17-year-old student had made threatening statements.
Gendron threatened to carry out a shooting at Susquehanna Valley High School, in Conklin, New York, around the time of graduation, a law enforcement official who spoke on condition of anonymity said. The official was not authorized to speak publicly on the investigation.
Vespa points out that Nikolas Cruz, who was the shooter in the Parkland, Florida shooting, also had been visited by law enforcement but never taken into custody over threats of violence. In other words, there were red flags all over the place with this guy, but law enforcement didn’t stop the shooting (see here for more details about that).
Vespa also mentions that the mass shooter in Sutherland, Texas should not have been able to buy a firearm, but his criminal charges (that he served jail time for!) were not reported to the FBI database to prevent him from being able to buy a firearm.
So, anti-gunners want to put more red flag laws into place in more areas, but if those laws aren’t stopping evil people from shooting innocent people, it’s time for advocates of red flag laws to tell us how they can justify innocent people dying because red flag laws prevented the innocent from being able to defend themselves (because we’ve already seen evidence of anti-2A people calling in false red flag alerts to harass innocent legal gun owners).
The facts are clear: gun control causes more lives to be lost than it can even pretend to save. It’s time that we start pressing that issue on anti-2A zealots to make them face the truth.
Global Elitists at it again and again…Now Uvalde TX. It was intentional and instigated just prior to the NRA convention so there could be a lot of attention on anti-gun laws heading into the midterm elections in Texas where conservatives and gun owners dominate. It is appalling how evil these people are to get a high school dropout to kill innocent children, all the while complaining that guns are the problem while wearing hats in the protests saying”Fund Abortion not Politics”. Anti-gunners are willing to kill thousands of babies in the womb while wanting to protect innocent school kids with a sign that says “Gun Free Zone”, and will wait for an hour for someone willing to use their weapon to protect them….Insanity! Evil!
Amen
Agreed!
It’s sickening how people, if I can call them that, want to blame inanimate objects for this when it is a human failure that causes it. Failure in child rearing as well as education by liberal trash like the Demonrats. The failure is theirs and theirs alone as parents and teachers. I look at where most of it’s happening….in lib meccas like Chicago and New York and wonder how when it doesn’t happen in conservative areas unless it’s done by liberal trash. There is only one reason for this scam and that is the Demonrat ploy for power and control and the fact they don’t give a dam how many are killed OR injured.
The epitome of stupid is blaming an inanimate object fro causing damage which is ALL the Demonrats are trying to do when it ALL has to do with their total failures of child rearing (parental failures) and their commie indoctrination in the public school system.
1st. Law Enforcement are, is, and will be reactive.
2nd. Law Enforcement becomes Proactive, Whiners start Whining n Bitching until the LEO’S become reactive again. Whiners want NO Law Enforcement Officers UNTIL THE WHINERS NEED SCAPEGOATS FOR THE WHINERS CRIMES. ALL THESE SHOOTER’S ARE SLEEPERS UNDER MK ULTRA. Yes, MK ULTRA is a REAL PROGRAM. I, keep asking the Question, YA’LL SEEN ENOUGH YET? YA’LL KNOW WHAT NEEDS TO BE DONE, GIT R DUN! THE WHOLE GLOBAL CABAL, demoncRATs and RINOS, ALL SATAN’S DEMON SPAWN MINIONS DESERVE DIRT NAPS. NCSWIC, WWG1WGA, P.A.N.I.C. LET’S GO BRANDON FJB and the WHOLE SQUAD. I’m not a BOT. I’m a pissed off American Veteran, Trucker and GreatGrandpa. President Trump’s still my President. Yahweh save our poor souls, Amen.
GG, you are absolutely spot on in your assessment! Those of us who are old enough to remember the ’60s, have seen the decay of our education system over the last few decades, after the Liberals took over the “Institutions of Higher Learning”! So, just remember, it has taken 50+ years for the Elite’s plans to come to fruition, and they are going to make the most of the fruits of their life-long efforts!
gun free zone signs are invitions for mass shooters. larry says it all
You are right and that is why Obama instituted them for the purpose of demonizing honest gun owners.
Anti-gun zealots don’t care about the truth, they only care about control! If We, the People, are disarmed, They, the Elite, will take control of our lives, which is exactly what they crave, to satisfy their hunger for power!
Did you see the law just passed in California, Schools are not required to inform authorities of a threat, bomb or gun? If you look at the laws the Democrats have passed, parents can’t discipline their children without being charged with child abuse. But parents are responsible for all the damage a child does without being able to correct a child when he does it. Sit outside a school when the bell rings, see how our kids are dressed, jeans with holes in them, shorts, girls with tops that don’t cover the mid-section and hair that no employer in their right mind would hire. They talk like a ditch digger, the foul language they use and are never corrected, would make their grandparents ashamed to be around them. These kids are the future of our country, they’ll run this country into the ground just our present Government Officials are doing right now with your support. SHAME ON US!
The Public School system is producing a gang of Communist activists aided and abetted by government. Home schooling is the way to go.
I believe Red Flag laws properly administered and controlled would be an asset to this problem of gun violence. But, it would do little unless other issues were addressed, The availability of proper training, A legal system that would prosecute those who break the law, appropriately, and, licensing among other actions would help to mitigate the problem. Finally, though, guns ARE, and to expect a perfect answer is to be out of touch with reality!!!
1 – Passing new laws (any type of them) will never stop the people or events that the “anti” groups claim they will because of all of the existing laws that are already being violated. The only people that laws affect are the people that obey or enforce them.
2 – Assault is an act, not a weapon.
3 – What makes something a “weapon” is the intent of the person. The item can be a tool or a weapon depending on the intent of the user.
Weapon or tool? Fist, Fire Extinguisher, Hammer, Ball Bat, Knife, Rolling Pin, Women’s Purse, Women’s High Healed Shoe, Car/Truck, Bricks, Rocks, Sticks, Fire, Guns (all types).
The correct answer is all of them can be used as ether one (just check the FBI crime statistics).
It is very much the fox in the henhouse blaming everything else for the chaos, misery and misfortunes strewn about it. The current administration insists on pursuing private citizens, spying on ordinary citizens, attacking PTA parents, allow corruption of minds (CRT) to young children, killing babies at conception and birth, indicting first amendment protestors and labeling them insurrectionists while letting killers and criminals loose on our streets, etc. If this administration and the DOJ would spend as much time pursuing criminals vs. law abiding citizens and attacking opposite party members and innocent people, they would be able to stop a lot of the mayhem created by these deranged people before they commit the crime. Garland, Majorkas and their bosses just don’t understand how to prioritize their resources to run a country of supposedly free people. The D’s are a party of finger pointers and not a party for resolutions.
i think that the democrats are all crazy and want to get rid of the guns so their socialist ideals will take place I will not live in a socialist America long live trumps America
