The simple fact is that in free societies, human beings will never be 100% safe from violence.  This is so because we are human, and humans are an unpredictable species. Guns are an easy culprit to blame, but inanimate objects like guns, knives, cars and nails do not kill people.  People kill people, and people are where the focus for solutions and greater protection must lie.

Liberals try to blame an object, while renouncing objectification.

Banning handguns was the target of the left in the 70’s, but liberals like to make good theater, so they have now focused on semi-automatic rifles, even giving them a dastardly name, the “assault rifle.”  Their drama and their use of guns to rally their base is deplorable, but this is the world we live in today where politics for politics sake takes precedence over country, good public policy and respectful civil discourse.

The truth is, no matter what we ban, the only people who will use banned instruments for bad deeds will be criminals. Stunningly, it is lost on liberals that most people using freely available instruments for crimes are criminals. The acts committed by these whack-jobs are already illegal, so a reaction to make them even more illegal by banning the instrument of their evil and expecting a different result is foolish on its face.

Liberals know that guns are not the only things that kill people. They don’t care, they want to control people lives and guns are one of America’s greatest symbols and expressions of freedom. Control guns, control minds.

Instead of looking at the glorification of weapons, guns, killing and the desensitizing of death brought by Hollywood’s liberals and the gaming industry, picking on guns is the approach because conservatives like them. God forbid that liberals consider the dangers of the First Amendment!  Suing Glock is much more fun for the left than attacking their liberal elite check writers in Hollywood.

Logic and history tells us that banning guns, even semi-automatic rifles, won’t stop lunatics from killing. Criminals will use whatever they can get their hands on: airplanes, automobiles, knives, fertilizer and pipe bombs, to name a few.

Banning guns might even lead to more lethal measures and objects, given the readily available instruction manual for mass killings called the Internet. Regardless, banning guns, even semi-automatic rifles would do little to nothing to change their availability to the scum that use weapons to kill.

Even if all guns were banned, criminals and psychopaths don’t worry about breaking the law and are creative enough simply to find other means than guns to carry out their carnage, like the bombs used to attack the Boston Marathon, thus relegating any gun ban to a punishment of the innocent.
