How about prayers , not politics, for victims

in news •  7 years ago 

I apologize for the visual blandness, i did this on my phone with time restriction

You may or may not know that there was another school shooting in Broward county FL yesterday. The death toll was at 17 this morning with numerous others wounded. While my heart goes out to the victims and their families, I can not help but be absolutely disgusted by the political left in this country.

The repugnant self serving democrats couldnt even give the families who lost loved ones twenty four hour before they began using this heinous act to push their socialist authoritarian agenda. Within hours democratic senator P.O.S. Bill Nelson is on air talking about how all guns need to be taken away from the population.

The shooter , an 18 or 19 year old male ,I have heard reports of both ages, named Nikolas Cruiz is a registered democrat just like every other mass shooter in recent times. Cruiz has a history of mental issues and violent tendancies. This was no secret to anyone that knew him.

If you are still living in 1950 and believe what you hear on mainstream media, this is the eighteenth school shooting THIS YEAR !!. It is only February. They included suicides and instances involving guns where nobody was hurt. Their number even includes police actions.They will doctor any numbers and pass bullshit as fact to further their agenda.

The dems dont have any real answers , they dont even really care about these school shootings. They care about taking away constitutional rights. The left despises the the 2nd amendment more than any. Senator Bill Nelson asked what business a 19 year old has owning an AR15 and argued that it isnt a hunting rifle it is strictly for killing.

My response to him is, what about the infinite number of 18 year old kids that are in the military and the government puts AR's , 240G's , 50cals , Mk19 automatic grenade launchers and more in their hands and sends them to fight and die in foreign lands in the name of freedom and democracy when its really for political agendas.
Why is it ok for them to have guns for that but not to protect themselves and their families at home. Criminals will always have guns. Illegal or not. All taking guns away does is leave law abiding citizens at risk. Look at your strictest gun law cities, chicago , new york, los angeles and they have the highest rates of violent crimes with guns. They are also overwhelmingly democratic too.

My other reply to his royal doucheness senator Nelson is what difference does it make if it is a hunting rifle or at tactical rifle. The 2nd amendment of the Constitution does not say that we can only have rifles for hunting. Its true purpose is to keep citizens armed to form a militia to defend themselves and the country from all threats foreign and domestic. The founding fathers knew that our biggest threat would come from within. How would citizens defend themselves from a military controlled by an evil person if they only had hunting rifles.

One of the first moves a dictator makes when they come to power is to disarm the populous, if it wasnt already done for them to gain power to begin with. Hitler, Stalin, Mao, Pol Pot, all took advantage of unarmed masses and wiped out millions of people who werent allowed to defend themselves.

That is what the left desires. The left wants an unarmed population and an ever growing government with complete and total control of every aspect of everyones lives. After all, that is Socialism. The left paints a picture of a socialist utopia where everyone is equal and has equal things. That is a propagandised half truth. In a socialist land, there are two classes, the government and everyone else. Everyone in the everyone else class is equal. They are all worthless meaningless slaves whos only purpose is to serve the state and government. The other class, government is the ruling class that takes whatever they want from everyone and there is nothing to be done about it. The former USSR is a prime example of this.

Venezuela was supposed to be the new socialist utopia. For who tho? The hyper inflation caused by dictators Chavez and Madero's greed and irresponsible decisions is causing the people unimaginable sufferings. Socialism has failed EVERY time it has been implemented.

People like Bernie Sanders have the wool pulled over the eyes of their youg ignorant supporters.

Instead of just saying all guns need to be taken away every time a tragic event like this happens, how about the left starts by stop promoting violence if you dont get your way. Antifa and BLM are splinters of the left that the left has not tried to distance themselves from. BLM chants about killing police officers and Fraudulent former President Obama had the leaders of BLM to the white house numerous times. Obama just commissioned his painting by an artist that likes to paint pictures of black women holding the severed heads of white women. To me its no wonder why race relations were the worst this country has seen since the 1960s under Barry Hussein. Antifa says people that dont agree with them should be killed. Antifa stands for anri fascism but yet they live by fascist principals. Typical hypocrisy of the left. Both of those organizations are funded by the likes of George Soros who is the driving force of many democrats like the clintons , obama and the rest.

Those are the people that don't want you to ne able to speak your mind and defend yourself. All i can say is people need to do their own homework and stop listening to cnn and msnbc.

If one or two of the teachers in that school who wamted to carry a firearm were allowed to carry on school grounds, maybe there would be 3 deaths instead of 17. Not perfect but better. I think it was Ben Franklin that said something like it is never worth giving up god given rights for a little bit of security. It only turns bad in the long run.

I kmow i got off topic, i just get furious about the left taking advantage of peoples emotions to try and get what they want. Right now the families and victims need support and love not politicians talking about bullshit.

How about the number of adults that failed this kid and the victims? School administration, the parents of the kid the shooter was living with, the FBI.

"We sent him an email telling him he can't bring a backpack." Really? How big of cowards are the people who run that school?

I had that argument with my employer this morning. Parental responsibility seems like a thing of tbe past. He says a parent is going to be blinded by love. I say if that was my kid i would have done a lot more a long time ago. And youre right, people that knew him knew he had serious issues and didnt just drop the ball but never had control . This is where mental health is sooo lacking in this country. Law enforcement cant arrest someone for thoughts and ideas no matter how sick they are. Someone like that should be off the streets and put somewhere that they can not act on their thoughts and get help or treatment at the same time. We also need to institute a real time monitoring program of people like this too. Not probation where they are still free to do whatever and pay the price once it is too late. Our society is too reactive instead of proactive. Cell phones ,tablets, video games and movies and tv have way more to do with this trend than anyone wants to admit.
