TPTB, the Left, did not get the anti-firearm response they demanded with the Las Vegas attack. Now, conveniently, another attack occurs by an undefined attacker in a church. How coincidental, eh ?

More proof that if anything, we need to disarm leftists.
Leftist Statism is a mental disorder, just look At who practices it....

So much disinformation on this now.

But I have determined that there is a very human truth involved here, and it's particularly relevant to mass murder, though not strictly confined to it. You see it in any sort of disaster, just without the made up bogeyman of the gun rights movement and it's associated organizations.

These incidents, framed as "tragedy" have a weird effect on people.

They go into what would appear to be near total emotional meltdown, each trying to outdo the other in empathy, sympathy, and calls for prayer and generosity, all the while doing probably nothing themselves other that join the frenzy of perturbation.

Their grief, which they have deluded themselves into thinking is genuine, will be over by dawn, as their audience dwindles. By Wednesday, this is old news, and the media will look for a new "tragedy", because old ones bring in no new ad revenues. Neither do old tragedies serve as the drug of choice for emotion junkies, who need to be in a constant state of despondency and sentimental turmoil that generates sufficient faux moral outrage.

Most of them call for the nebulous "discussion" on gun control, and when asked what they themselves would propose, either have no idea, or set some arbitrary line between the flintlock musket and daddy's deer rifle.

The bodies weren't cold, nor the blood dry before the Dansers Macabre started their blood dance.

Fedgov is filled with communists. Casey-PA and his citizen supporters have long been such.

Joe McCarthy was right.

Well it did not take long for the Democrats to do their blood dance and demand we all disarm...

However I must point out the shooter was a prohibited person. (Dishonorable Discharge from the Air Force).

The law did not stop the bad/crazy/evil person....

A good guy with a gun did....
