Here is is another week and the far left liberal are calling for even more gun control laws despite mountains of evicence and studies proving they have no effect. Some studies by the government also show that areas of the country that have the most restricting ownership and gun regulations or bans have the highest murder rates, and illegal gun use by criminals that prey on the unarmed.
According the the U.S Government Center For Disease Control (CDC) in Atlanta task force study
“The Task Force found insufficient evidence to determine the effectiveness of any of the firearms laws reviewed for preventing violence.” And now the President Obama I guess didn’t like or didn’t read the study findings and has requested more studies of Gun Control and violence by the same governmental body, yes the CDC.
The truly sad thing is that 98% of those espousing more laws and regulations on the common man are in fact in the one percent and have security details that have their own automatic weapons, and those same people state that none of their current law requests and bans would have stopped any of the past shooting massacres. Good god people, lets quit wasting time and do something that will stop the crazies. Damn.
The NRA was the first to call for background checks some thirty years ago, but the anti gun groups howled NOOO we want waiting periods. During the Los Angeles riots scared poor people were turned away at gun stores because they had to wait two weeks before they could defend their homes and children against rioters destroying anything in their paths. How soon the far left forget that its the poor who suffer and the criminals could care less about laws since they dont really apply to them.
All they answer back with is “thats what the police are for to protect us”. Tell that to those poor people during that riot. The police do not answer calls during a riot. If you ignore the facts and history you are condemned to repeat it over and over.
Lest try this. You have a medical history of crazy or on medication, you dont get to buy a gun until you can prove with a doctor letter that you are ok to own or buy one. FBI metal issue data base. That would have eliminated a few massacres in our past.
How about a hot line for parents to call when worried about their out of control kids so that a mental health professional can intervene in a positive manner. And lets get our schools and teachers involved in mental health for our kids, and give them authority to send counseling a notice to the FBI data base to where they cant be around firearms, and they can get some, and take away their freakin xbox where they shoot people all day. So Carter Hargrave’s take on gun control is that it simply Does not work.
