Wouldn't want their picture of a Socialist utopia to be stained by the blood of gun violence; "It doesn't happen here." Yeah, okay.
That is exactly the idea. Any time the liberals create one of their socialist utopias with gun free zones, zero tolerance policies, everybody is equal, nobody loses, etc... they want very badly to prove their ideas work. The problem is when their ideas fail repeatedly they will never humble themselves and admit they are wrong. Its never their ideas that are the cause of failure. So failure of their ideas continue. With blame getting transfered to guns or weapons.
Every article you read about a shooting, the term "gun violence" is used. Its used to create the idea that guns create violence. Its a term we have been so saturated with, that pro gun people even use it when talking about shooting crimes. When someone is convicted of vehicular homicide, is the term vehicle violence ever used? Gun violence is used by the disarmament crowd to create the mind set that guns create violence, and we that know better need to quit using the term.
Bad guys love soft targets. Its a proven fact that criminals prey are weaker victims, and the only way that is stopped is for the weaker victims to defend themselves with firearms. Its a concept the socialist utopia crowd can't comprehend, mainly because they have been indoctrinated with the idea that "guns are bad", and can't enter the fact that guns are a tool that can also be used to defend from evil intent.
