I've said this before, but I just wanted to reiterate for the DUmbass lurkers who think they're fooling people with their propaganda:
Make no mistake, DU's pants-shitting hysteria over gun control has little or nothing to do with high-minded ideas like "public health", not for the majority of far-left scum. These hypersensationalized mass shootings of late, to them, are merely crises that they can't "let go to waste."
If they were really all about "the children", they wouldn't be so celebratory over the deaths of 56,000,000+ scraped out of the womb in the 40 years since Roe. If it was about saving lives in general, they would get at least as excited about the 90,000 Americans who die annually from preventable medical errors, or yes, those cumulative thousands who die from traffic accidents, swimming pools, contact sports, household poisons, misuse of OTC medications and all manner of avoidable misadventures. There are no calls to harangue Congress about any of those things. They are handwaved away, because after all, those things have "other uses", as if that makes their victims less dead somehow.
If they were really concerned about death and injury of the average citizen from gun crime and violence they wouldn't give such short shrift to root causes of such in society, things like broken families, violence in culture, drugs, and a general breakdown in the moral tone of this nation. Even when some hardy soul brings up those points they are just as quickly ignored in favor of going after an object, a possession - the gun.
No, when it comes to firearms, only a restriction on the object itself is worth talking about, unlike all other causes of death where circumspection and root cause analysis is the order of the day. Why? The answer is simple.
Despite the creeping, incremental advances of Socialism and Big Government over the past six or seven decades, it hasn't nearly grown fast or far reaching enough for today's moonbat. They want big changes, major changes, and they want them fast before their own pathetic loser lives are over. The problem is they know there are still enough conservatives around to have a moderating effect on their plans to fundamentally and radically change America in a short time. Further complicating things are a resurgence of groups like the Tea Party and Oath Keepers who demand we go back to a more basic understanding and enforcement of the Constitution and the principles on which the U.S. was founded. DUmmies want their Socialist pony right now, and they know they can't have it without some sort of power grab, some sort of "benevolent dictatorship" on behalf of whatever branch of government they happen to control. You see it reflected in their batshit crazy calls for Republican congressmen to be arrested on charges of "treason" and "sedition" for blocking the Obamessiah's agenda, because after all, anyone who would attempt to thwart The Annointed One must be a criminal, a racist, and an enemy of the state, right?
The sticking point is, they know that in an armed America such a power grab, mass abuse of arrest powers, and that fabled Benevolent Dictatorship will never be stood for by the Right. We have a way of considering those Second Amendment solutions should such a usurpation of power be attempted. Therefore, the citizenry must be disarmed. Whether such a scenario is possible or whether it is simply a pipe dream on the part of DU moonbats, it is what they hope for and what motivates them to restrict weapons to the government only. They know that full-on Socialism can only be enforced at gunpoint, as history has demonstrated time and again. That, and only that, is the driving force behind their quest to disarm you and I.
