Gun
control is blaming weapons for bad things that happen. So enough
already. Let’s quit trying to control guns and start controlling people
by using compulsory mental health care and limits on movies and video
games, because the Second Amendment trumps all others.
How
do we handle the bad apples we miss? More guns/weapons/arms
(mutually-assured destruction) equals less violence. Not only teachers,
but even schoolchildren of any age who’ve had proper training, should be
allowed to wear sidearms to class or even carry them concealed.
The
super rich can amass personal arsenals to take on small countries that
give them trouble. This will take pressure off our military and its
budget.
That, plus the
additional sales of weapons of all shapes and sizes, will help the
economy and strengthen families who’ll bond while training to defend
themselves.
Feel
safer? Me, neither. I was just hoping this extreme version of NRA policy
might shock some sense into somebody. But I doubt it.
