The shootings at Santa Fe Highschool outside of Houston, Texas would not have been stopped with the Left’s nonsensical demand for a ban on so-called assault weapons. The shooter was 17 and obtained the shotgun and pistol he used illegally. Neither weapon was a scary looking “assault” weapon. Another law would not have kept the kid from carrying out his sick crime. The kid was a loaner and had been spurned by one of the victims. The mother of the girl said that her daughter had humiliated the shooter after his aggressive advances toward her. This proves that it was not the guns, but the unstable mind of a mentally immature 17 y/o boy. Additional laws banning certain firearms is NOT the answer. Parents and teachers need to get back to teaching the difference between right and wrong. Yes, the lack morality is the problem, not the tools used.

You can’t blame your fork or spoon for overeating. You can’t blame the hammer for hitting your fingers. So, why blame the gun for the sick actions of a twisted mind? The pistol and shotgun the kid used were mere tools. Nothing more. If the shooter could not have obtained those weapons he would have found some other weapon. Sure, he might not have been able to kill as many other students, but he would have still killed.

Jimmy Kimmel and all the other idiots calling for stricter gun laws should think before they speak, though that may be difficult for them. This knee-jerk reaction to these tragedies of laying blame on an inanimate object ignores reaity. The real underlying problem is that the Left has removed morality from the curriculum and signalled to the children that the way to settle things is through violence. They have sown the wind and now are reaping the whirlwind. Their answer is to punish law-abiding citizens and make even more people unsafe.

Their boogyman is the NRA who they claim profits from gun sales. No, the NRA is a membership based organization that does not sell guns. They only sell membership and every time the Left starts whinging about scary looking guns that membership increases because thinking individuals understand that if the Left gets their way we might as well kiss our freedom away. The second Amendment is there for a very good reason — to guard against an all-powerful central government taking the rest of our rights away.
