When it came time for city leaders to take the microphone, their solution was less than reassuring: a gun buyback program by which, in theory, people will be handing over guns responsible for the wave of shootings.In the insane world of the Boston Globe, guns are responsible for shootings, not people.
The new tack of the antis is to admit the "buybacks" don't work (duh), but to justify them anyway by lauding how they galvanize the Eloi to work together with the Morlocks in a Kumbaya partnership.
Last time I watched "The Time Machine", I had to stop and think, "Was that a morlock, or Dianne Feinstein?" They're kinda hard to tell apart! >;o)
ReplyDeleteI love this little gem of an idea from the article, "consent to search":
ReplyDelete"City leaders say parents, suspecting there are guns in the home, want help. Here's a suggestion: a St. Louis initiative from the mid-1990s, Consent-to-Search. In it, police and residents hatched a plan where parents in high-crime areas of the city gave police permission to search their homes and confiscate guns, in exchange for a promise that no gun prosecution would follow."
So the goblin gets a pass on gun charges AND the parents abdicate their Constitutional protections against warrant less searches? Wow what a win/ win...NOT!
