The Liberal Gun Control Agenda – 10 Hard, Cold Truths

By Craig Andresen – Right Side Patriots on American Political Radio

Following last week’s shooting at a high school in south Florida, the requisite liberal responses, were rubber stamped and ready to go.

We’ve heard all of this politically correct, politically expedient nonsense before.

Liberals always seize on such horrific events to make their abject hatred of our 2nd Amendment rights heard, never letting a crisis go to waste. First and foremost, liberals, in their never-ending quest to eliminate our rights, blame the gun, tell us we must do something to “solve the gun problem” and then proceed to place the blame on anything, or anyone other than the slime that pulled the trigger.

People are dying every day at the hands of those who shouldn’t have guns on the streets of some of our nation’s most well-known cities…

And if liberal policies are what’s going to save us all, why are our most dangerous, and deadly cities all being run by liberals, and the very policies they claim are our salvation?

It’s all a bunch of crap, and they know it, but that doesn’t stop them from issuing their inane talking points.

Let’s start with this one…

“It’s time to have a meaningful conversation” about the gun problem in this country.

Right off the bat, I’ll call BULLCRAP on that talking point, because what it IS time for, are some hard, cold truths.

Hard, cold truth number one…there can be NO “meaningful conversation” regarding events like the one last week in south Florida until liberals admit that “gun-free zones” are, in fact, target-rich environments.

Most of the mass murders in this country, over the past few decades, have occurred in the “gun-free zones” liberals both set in place, and are so damned proud of. Why? Because those hell-bent on pulling the trigger, and murdering as many people as possible in as short a period of time as possible, know damned well that in a “gun-free zone,” they won’t be challenged with deadly resistance.

“Meaningful conversation” my ass. What do these namby-pamby liberals think a “meaningful conversation” will do…talk the next such occurrence out of existence?

The next liberal talking point always involves “allocating resources” to pay for this, that and the other thing.

Hard, cold truth number two…you can’t fix this by throwing either money, or government at it…I don’t give a damn how much money or government you want to throw.

Furthermore, liberals are always wanting to throw more government, and more money at the issue toward the absolute wrong things, as in, using taxpayer money and more government to relieve us of our rights, and not one single liberal has ever been able to explain how relieving good people of their rights is going to stop bad people from doing bad things.

Always involved in the mess of liberal talking points after a situation like this, is the blather regarding the “need for more first responders.”

From liberals, this is entirely disingenuous, as liberals have shown a complete lack of respect for, and total lack of support for police officers, but that’s not the only problem I have with their call for “more first responders.”

Hard, cold truth number three…if more first responders is our answer regarding a situation such as the one experienced in south Florida last week…you’re too damned late. First responders…respond…after something has happened…and more of them will not prevent anything from happening.

What is needed is first preventers…not first responders, and if you want to know how to properly “allocate more resources” and properly provide first preventers, just read my RIGHT SIDE PATRIOT partner Diane Sori’s Op-Ed from this morning…her solution is good, blunt spot-on common sense.

Next up in the liberal spewage of sewage…grief counselors.

Every time there’s a horrible event at a school, or damn near anywhere else, liberals always make a big deal out of providing “grief counselors” to work with those who were affected by the event.

Hard, cold truth number four…I understand how kids are going to be shook by such a terrible event…but group therapy sessions with an anonymous “grief counselor” is nothing more than a “village raising a child.”

While we didn’t have these sorts of things, shootings like the one in south Florida back when I was an impressionable kid…from time to time, bad things happened, and we did, indeed, have grief counselors.

We called them by their given titles…mom and dad.

If our precious feeling were hurt, if we were confused by something, and if we were distraught over something…we went to mom and dad, one on one, and we got through it pretty damned well. A big part of the reason we’re seeing more tragedies now than we did back then, is because we’ve allowed a village of idiots raise our children, rather than, as parents, accepting that responsibility ourselves.

Another thing liberals always bring up at times like this, is the old, “if you see something, say something” line of crap.

Hard, cold truth number five…“See something, say something,” only works if the entity you say something to…does something…and apparently the FBI was too damn busy chasing down pretend Russian interference in our elections to do anything about a punk that was on the verge of shooting up a school and murdering 17 people.

“If you see something, say something,” is nothing more than liberals trying to implement a system by which people will constantly spy on, and report their neighbors. Don’t think so? Well, just a day after the mass murder at the high school in south Florida last week, the Broward County Sheriff brought it up in a press conference and used this example…if you’re used to seeing a certain routine from your neighbor, where they come home every Friday with bags of groceries, with bread sticking up out of the bag…but one Friday they come home with bullets instead of bread in their bag…call the police, call the Sheriff, or call the FBI.

How in the hell are you supposed to know there are bullets in the grocery bag rather than bread? Are we now supposed to run to our neighbor’s driveway, wrest the grocery bag from them and dump the contents onto their driveway so as to see what in the hell they came home with, and then call the FBI if there’s a box of ammo?

And what good would it do? The punk that murdered 17 people last week was a time bomb ready to explode, and someone did see something, a posted comment on a YouTube video, and that person did, in fact, alert the FBI.

At that same press conference, when asked about it, the FBI agent in charge admitted that his agency had received the “see something, say something” alert, but were unable to discern who made the comment.

Hard, cold truth number six…You’re better off defending yourself than waiting for the FBI to do it for you.

The FBI was alerted to this punk in south Florida…they were also alerted to the Fort Hood shooter, one of the two Boston Marathon bombers, and the Orlando nightclub shooter, and yet all were able to carry out their murderous plans. Deven Patrick Kelley,, Dylann Roof and Seung-Hui Cho all “slipped through the cracks in our nation’s background check system and managed to buy the weapons they used to shoot up two churches and a school.

Why? Because the FBI simply is not equipped to handle more than 4 million tips with only 100 agents pouring through them.

While it is tru that the FBI has prevented many, many acts of terrorism, they are not, nor is any law enforcement agency, the thought police, and laws are designed to punish those who break them, after they break them…not before they break the law…but…in this case, the FBI initially said they simply couldn’t figure out who posted the social media message, or where he was from.

Oh, really?

The guy who said he wanted to be a “professional school shooter” had his name on the post. Are you telling me that the FBI couldn’t figure out the guy’s name…which was on the post? Are you telling me that the FBI, and their cyber forensics division couldn’t figure out from where they guy made that comment…after all the “allocating of resources” the FBI has at their disposal?

The problem is, nobody wants to be the entity that bruises some batcrap crazy punk’s feelings by knocking on his door, and doing what needs to be done…locking him up where he can’t “become a professional school shooter.”

Another thing said, by several people at that press conference last week, was that “we must take steps to make sure this never happens again.”

Hard, cold truth number seven…It is going to happen again, because bad people, with bad intentions are going to do bad things, and nothing can be done to see to it that it “never happens again.” It is 100 percent unrealistic to entertain the notion that anything good people do will prevent bad people from doing bad things ever again, so why even make such a statement?

It’s moral posturing…by people who lack the balls to take the necessary steps to seriously impact the possibility of having such things happen again…and most of the time such words are uttered, they are uttered by liberals who seize the moment of a school shooting to pretend they are willing to shred our Constitutional rights, which they are predisposed to hate anyway, to ensure such a tragedy “never happens again,” which, by the way, are the same ideological party of people who openly advocate for the killing of soon to be born babies.

Hard, cold truth number eight…we have to stop protecting the worst our society has to offer out of concern for their feelings.

The punk who murdered 17 people in Parkland Florida last week didn’t snap…he was on a steady, sustained boil and ready to explode, and apparently everybody from his classmates, his teachers, those with whom he lived, the local police and even the FBI knew it.

Broward County Sheriff’s deputies were called to his home more than 35 times over the past 6 years…that’s the same County Sheriff who presided over that press conference last week by the way, and the punk was given at least one, maybe more, psych evaluations…but now, everybody is saying that the red flags were…missed.

Those red flags weren’t missed…they were ignored…out of concern for the punk’s feelings. Nobody wanted to label the punk as a time bomb, as in the liberal world, such a label, obviously apt, would do damage to his self-esteem.

And why is that? Because liberals have bullied the nation into believing, and indoctrinated children for decades into believing, that one’s self-esteem is more important than one’s actions, and one’s actions shouldn’t be held against them, as one’s abhorrent actions are always the fault of someone, or something else.

According to Gordon Weekes of the Broward County Public Defender’s Office, referring to the punk that stole 17 lives in Parkland Florida last week,  “He is a deeply troubled young man; a child that has endured significant loss. He fell between the cracks and we have to try to save him now.”

Here comes hard, cold truth number nine…

That murdering punk isn’t worth saving, because he’s never been a productive asset to society, and he never will be.

Are we to believe that the same system that made our schools “gun-free zones” so that parents could send their sitting ducks to a potential shooting gallery every morning is going save this punk when they wouldn’t do what’s necessary to save 17 other lives?

Are we to believe that the “see something, say something” system that saw and heard everything and yet did nothing is going to save this punk when they did nothing that could have saved 17 other lives?

Are we to believe that the same system that deems this punk’s self-esteem to be more important than his actions is going to save him when it made the lives of 17 other people worth less than this punk’s precious feelings?

Are we to believe that the same system that is now demanding a “meaningful conversation” is going to save this punk when they should have taken meaningful action to save 17 other lives somehow matters?

Are we now being asked to believe that “allocating resources” by throwing more taxpayer dollars into the system responsible for failure after failure, in an effort to save this punk, after the fact, is the answer to “taking steps to make sure this never happens again?”

For what, exactly…so that millions of dollars of taxpayer monies can go towards his defense, incarceration and medication for decades and decades to come?

And finally…hard, cold truth number ten…

That punk, who murdered 17 people in Parkland Florida last week did not “slip through the cracks”…he is a product of the moral, cultural abyss created by, carefully crafted by, and promoted by liberals.

The same ilk that blamed President Trump for hurricanes and wildfires from coast to coast over the past year, is now blaming President Trump for what that punk did, and using it for their political advantage by also blaming the gun he used.

What a crock of crap.

How much of today’s music celebrates violence, gangs, rape and murder? How many video games rely on violence to sell the product to kids, and adults?

Liberalism has hoodwinked parents into believing it’s wrong to discipline their children. Liberalism has hoodwinked parents into believing that their children can do no wrong, and if they do, it’s always someone else’s fault.

Liberalism is brainwashing our kids where our 2nd Amendment rights are concerned. Don’t think so?

Think again.

Liberals far and wide are blaming President Trump for what that punk did…but the President they loved…Barack Hussein Obama…told the BLM arsonists, looters, thieves and thugs that they were doing a great job…said that if he “had a son, he’d look like Trayvon”…sent his representatives to the funerals of thugs, thieves and an assortment of miscreants, and made heroes out of the worst society had to offer.

The cultural abyss created by, carefully crafted by, and promoted by liberals includes taking no responsibility for one’s own actions, hatred of those who succeed in life, hatred for law enforcement, permission to commit arson, looting, murder, and mayhem based on a pretend, perceived lack of diversity. The cultural abyss created by, carefully crafted by, and promoted by liberals also includes a total lack of respect for others, a lack of respect for our nation, its flag, its sovereignty, our Constitution, and the laws of the land.

Students, in the liberal cultural abyss are allowed to beat their teachers…but those teachers are not allowed to defend themselves against their attackers.

If we hand out trophies to kids who lose a game, they will expect trophies when they lose in life as adults.

Liberals are now, again, demanding that guns be taken away from good people as their answer to what happened in south Florida last week…and why…so that good people can pick up shovels with which to dig more graves at the bottom of the abyss liberals have so carefully created.

The politically correct, politically expedient liberals are now on Cruz control.
