“As a nation, we have to ask when in God’s name are we going
to stand up to the gun lobby? When in God’s name are we going to do what has to
be done? Why are willing to live with this carnage?” said Biden
"Enough is enough. As a nation, we have to have the
courage to take action and understand the nexus between what makes for
reasonable and sensible public policy to ensure something like this never
happens again," said Kamala Harris.
"Nearly ten years after Sandy Hook — and ten days after
Buffalo — our country is paralyzed, not by fear, but by a gun lobby and a
political party that has shown no willingness to act in any way that might
help prevent these tragedies," said Obama
“For too long, some in Congress have offered hollow words
after these shootings while opposing all efforts to save lives. It is time for
all in Congress to heed the will of the American people and join in enacting
the House-passed bipartisan, commonsense, life-saving legislation into
law," said Nancy Pelosi.
Texas Democratic gubernatorial nominee Beto O'Rourke used the
shooting to stage a publicity stunt. O’Rourke interrupted a presser held by Texas
Republican Gov. Greg Abbott and viciously attacked Abbot saying “It’s on you”
Hillary Clinton tweeted: “Thoughts and prayers are not enough. After years
of nothing else, we are becoming a nation of anguished screams. We simply need
legislators willing to stop the scourge of gun violence in America that is
murdering our children.”
Far-left propagandist Michael Moore, appeared on MSNBC to call for a repeal
of the Second Amendment, claiming that the founders never would have included
it in the Constitution if they had knowledge of bullets.
There are two problems with all their assertions.
The first problem is that most of these individuals have been in positions of power for long periods of time, but did nothing to implement any form of ‘gun control’
Obama was in politics for 25 years, and he was President for
8 years. Biden is in politics for over 50 years, he was Senator for 36
years, vice president for 8 years, and is President since January 2021. Nancy Pelosi has been in the U.S. House of Representatives for 33 years while Beto O’Rourke
was in the House for three terms. Hillary Clinton was Senator for a
two-terms.
These statements are straight out of Obama’s playbook. When Obama presided over any catastrophe as President, he never ever took responsibility. Instead, he would address the issue like a bystander commentator. He would also project emotions to convey compassion, knowing that most people conflate a display of ‘compassion’ and empty words with actions or even an apology. Finally, Obama would resort to blaming everyone but himself. Never for a moment was there ever an apology.
Obama knew that the media was always around to cheerleader and elevate him.
The Democrats have applied this for the past few days, but no longer indulge in commentary or feign sadness, they directly and viciously attack and blame their political opponents. This is part of their campaign for the midterms in November.
Now for the naked hypocrisy behind these hollow utterances.
Every Democrat who has issued statements imploring the need to ‘stand up to the gun lobby’ are under the protection of armed guards. Their homes and offices are surrounded by armed bodyguards. Whenever they make public appearances, they are surrounded by armed bodyguards. They take their own security very seriously and guns are a large part of it.
Obama claims to be an ardent admirer of Mahatma Gandhi, perhaps
he ought to practice the Gandhian principle which says “Be the change you wish
to see in the world”
Instead of merely pontificating about gun control and the need to seize guns. Obama could begin asking all his bodyguards to give up their arms. Once this is accomplished, he could ask Biden, Pelosi, O’Rourke, and Hillary Clinton to follow him.
Washington D.C. can also follow this example. If they want to repeal the second amendment, how about pilot testing that change in Washington DC first? How about a total ban on arms in Washington D.C.? Will the powerful in Washington agree to that?
We all know the answer to that.
For the Democrats, it has always been one rule for the 'ruling class' and another for the public.
The Democrats frequently claim that the US is a nation of immigrants hence every illegal migrant must be welcomed and treated with compassion. But when it comes to settling these migrants, they chose working-class neighborhoods. You will never see a group of poor migrants settled next door to any of the luminaries in Washington who frequently feign compasson.
In the event, that one of these migrants turns out to be a violent criminal, who suffers? But of course. the working class. If the migrants agree to work for lesser than minimum wage, once again the working class sees a depression in wages or perhaps is rendered unemployed.
The Democrats condemned Trump's proposal for a border wall and did their best to block the funding for the
wall. The same Democrats demanded that the whole of Washington D.C.
be barricaded after January 6th, because they were petrified of protestors. The Democrats also have high walls around their personal property.
The Democrats have also been advocating the defunding
of the police. The same Democrats demanded that Washington D.C. be guarded by
armed law enforcement following the January 6th protest. They also have law enforcement guarding their
personal properties. The defunding of police that the Democrats demand only
applies to poor neighborhoods.
A firearm is perhaps the only way regular citizens living can defend themselves against unruly elements. The second hope is that the police patrolling in the vicinity will be of assistance. If the Democrats have their way, citizens will be left with no means of protection while the crime wave makes their neighborhood becomes more unsafe every day.
The only people with guns will be criminals and Democrat security teams.
The Democrats are sending a message to everybody that only
their lives matter.
