Turning guns into prey
Like sharks in frenzy, after smelling blood, the gun ban jihadists want to tear the Second Amendment apart in the wake of the Arizona shootings.
“Useful idiots,” from columnist Amy Goodman (“New gun laws could save lives,” Jan. 21), a spokesperson for the Marxist left, to The Spokesman-Review’s Democratic Party lapdog Gary Crooks, are predictably calling for gun control.
American’s anti-gun terrorists are following in the exact footprints of socialist England. England first banned “assault rifles,” then all repeating firearms and, finally, all handguns. Now, they’re mopping up what’s left.
Law enforcement authorities have said, for decades, that military-style firearms, wrongly called “assault rifles,” are basically a nonissue in crime.
Ironically, military-style rifles may be exactly what the Founding Fathers wanted citizens (the militia) to have.
Despite the citizen disarmament propaganda, the bottom line is still the same. Millions of Americans use firearms safely and responsibly. Armed citizens thwart some 2 million crimes annually. Guns have saved thousands of lives. Firearms put food on the table; taxes on guns and ammunition fund our wildlife conservation programs.
To “save lives,” Goodman and her fellow liberals should stop killing millions of unborn babies. Liberal hypocrisy is truly mind-boggling.
