It was quite enlightening to learn how people around the country feel about their guns. Several felt insulted by my comment that "in 26 years of crime prevention I had not seen anything good regarding owning a gun." I should have clarified that my 26 years have been in Miami-Dade, which is apparently very different from the rest of the country.Yes, Carmen. As the very newspaper you write for reports, Miami-Dade is apparently quite different:
What many of these readers do not understand is that residents of Miami-Dade County prefer to work with their law enforcement, working to prevent crime by cooperating with their neighbors and using their intelligence to avoid becoming victims of crime. This is a lot more challenging than just owning a gun.
Murders in Miami-Dade County are up 42 percent...Wow, you're right. That is a lot more challenging than just owning a gun! Great job "cooperating" there, Carmen, although with an outcome like this, it might be fair to ask who your aversion to guns really benefits. Maybe you could travel the country and teach us how to follow your great example, so we can replicate these awesome results where we live.

Well, before this she was merely an idiot. Now she is a CERTIFIED idiot.
ReplyDeleteI bet those 1,700 captured Polish officers at Katyn wished the hell they had a lousy pistol to defend themselves with, as their Soviet captors lined them up on their knees, hands tied behind their backs, and shot each and every HELPLESS one of them in the back of the head. They wouldn't need 26 years to figure out that cooperating with the "authorities" was getting them killed. They used their intelligence. They surrendered. They trusted the authorities to protect them. Think it's far fetched about it happening here? There are more than forty card carrying members of the American Progessive Party in the U.S. House of Representatives. The APP is a subsidiary of the American Socialist Workers Party. Also known as the American Communist Party. One is Nancy Pelosi, de facto Speaker of the House, come January. I didn't feel insulted about your comment. Nauseated. I remember another Gauleiter coming from Miami-Dade. Janet Reno.
ReplyDeleteNone are so blind, as those that refuse to see. None are more ignorant, than those whom continue on in their blindness, after seeing the facts.
