USA – -(Ammoland.com)- With the news of the terrible mass murder in Las Vegas on Sunday, law-abiding gun owners knew the inevitable would happen: The irrational attacks from the left equating the actions of a deranged killer with the rights of law-abiding gun owners.
When do our rights come into play? When do the rights of my wife, sons, and daughter come into play? Why is it that whenever unspeakable evil occurs, my constitutional rights come under attack? What about my ability to protect myself from just such an attack?
Over the course of history, every time there is a criminal shooting, the anti-gun forces always attack the firearm. The target villains in the case of the Las Vegas shooting this time are bump stocks, rifles, magazines —anything but the deranged killer himself. Any of these items are just tools or parts, millions of which are owned by law-abiding gun owners.
No piece of legislation will ever exist to solve the issue of evil people killing innocents. Every single time a mentally ill, evil individual commits a monstrous act, the anti-gun forces huddle together and attempt to solve the problem by stripping away the civil rights from law-abiding citizens.
What’s worse is that every single time, what they propose would not have stopped the incident that caused the incident. Yet they attempt to strip law-abiding citizens of our civil rights.
They do this time and time again. Isn’t that the definition of insanity?
But they aren’t actually trying to stop or solve a problem. They are once again using an unimaginable tragedy in an attempt to strip us of our civil rights. They are trying to effectively eliminate our right to protect ourselves, our ability to resist the tyranny of government. The progressive collective of the legislature wants the power. They want us to be dependent upon the government for life itself.
Take the emotion out of the issue, and look beyond the rhetoric. They don’t want to ban your bump stock, your semi-automatic sporting rifle, or your magazines. Their true goal is eventual confiscation.
