I saw His Majesty Joe Biden on TV last night regarding the shooting in NY and he took the opportunity he had to pass the news on to the people he was speaking before. He said, "We've GOT to do something to end this violence!" Guess what the self-proclaimed author of the Assault Weapons Ban of 1994 probably feels that "something" is? Take a white-knuckle grip on your AR's.
Violence is going to happen and it doesn't matter what the instrument used in the violent act happens to be. Cain slew Abel with a rock, as the biblical story goes. I guess they're going to outlaw those, too, just after the Louisville Sluggers, spears, knives, etc. Where does their madness end? It's a SOCIAL problem, not a weapon problem. They just don't seem to be intelligent enough to understand this OR to be able to do anything to address those issues, so, for lack of a better solution, they attack the weapons instead. Shows deep intellect, now doesn't it? I'm embarrassed and ashamed that we (I didn't) as a nation put these people in office to "lead" us down the path to Socialism.
As Jim Valvano, the former coach of the N.C. State men's basketball team, while battling the cancer that was eating him alive said, "Don't give up. Don't EVER give up." We can't afford to, either.
