The Evil aspects (Dems and RINO’s) in our Government are doing everything they can to destabilize marriage and families (welfare laws=fatherless, dependent on government handouts=plantation life; radical LGBTQRSTUVWXYZ indoctrination), de-humanize human life (pushing the agenda abortion is not only “good” for the woman to advance her career or ensure her freedom, but actually better for the baby to prevent them from being born into a life of poverty) and “to save the planet we need to kill humans”; devalue and poo poo the ideals of believing in God and religion, self reliance, resilience, hard work and sacrificing “now” to make it better in the future generations. All these an more have been the incubator for mass murderers and other evil acts.
You are being conditioned to believe that giving away your freedom in exchange for the false sense of security and safety is a good trade.
You gotta ask yourself- if guns are the problem, why no mass shootings at a gun store or shooting range??? Because these evil people look for soft targets- schools, shopping malls, hospitals and medical facilities, large public events.
Mass shooters and shootings have dramatically increased since “sounds good, virtue signaling title” policies have been enacted and “progressive” agenda:
- “gun free zone” laws (as evil would follow such an idiotic law),
- shooters almost exclusively Democrats- I am not kidding- and/or had contact with Leftist organizations.
-defund the police, disregard and disrespect for law and order,
- glamorize the destruction of “God fearing, good old fashioned” values, family and marriage.
Evil and evil acts will always exist in a free society. Utopia isn’t possible and every attempt to create Utopia is makes life a tyrannical hell.
Freedom, by definition is dangerous, risky, uncertain but life without Freedom is a life not worth living.
Guns aren’t the problem- mass murderers can use a car, a bomb, a plane, a vaccine.
Historically, any government that confiscated guns from their citizens “for their safety” quickly preceded to slaughter hundreds of millions of their citizens they labeled “a danger to society”- them - Hitler, Mao, Stalin, Lenin.
And the argument “oh, but that wouldn’t happen here in the United States” won’t work either- cuz it already did- the largest mass murder in America happen in Dec 29, 1890 and done by THE GOVERNMENT. Federal agents and the 7th cavalry went to Wounded Knee creek to confiscate the guns of the Sioux Indians. Once the majority of Sioux had surrendered their guns, the cavalry opened fire, killing all of the 297 Indians- 200 of the 297 were unarmed women and children.
“Any society that willingly gives away a little freedom to gain a little security, deserves neither and loses both” - Ben Franklin.

Agreed. On just about every point.
The proof of the accuracy of the quoted post isn't hard to find. It exists in the past of most of us. Back in the day (1960's) guns were everywhere in the area where I lived. We even brought guns to school: gun safety and training classes were held on a regula basis, so bringing a gun to school was commonplace. We had to store 'em in the Principal's office until it was time to use them but the ammo we just carried loose in our pockets. Dad collected guns (had over 50 when he died), and my siblings and I were all taught at a very early age how to use and care for guns, but most of all how to RESPECT guns.
Along with that, we were taught at home from toddlerhood to RESPECT one another as well. I, as well as the great majority of the people of the time, came from two-married-parent households with strong role models for both genders. We learned strong positive values from an early age, both because of the parental role-models we had and because we knew that if we transgressed significantly we'd have a warm behind. Once in school, Mom and Dad had one cardinal rule: "Don't get in trouble at school and then come home and tell us about it, because you'll be in twice as much trouble at home". And they meant it.
Contrast that to today. The lack of effective parenting has led to a significant lack of values, mainly on the part of the young but certainly not limited to them. Penalties under the law, even when applied, usually end up being so watered-down because of plea-bargaining that it hardly serves as any kind of deterrent. At home when I was a youngster, we never locked anything. Today, I lock everything, even in relatively crime-free TV. And my wife and I both have handguns in our nightstands.
It is a different world than the one many of us grew up in. And we seem intent on following a path that is guaranteed to make it even worse.
