EVIL EXISTS: WHY DOES THE LEFT ALWAYS BLAME THE GUN?

Evil exists: why does the left always blame the gun? Think back to the Columbine School shooters, there is no question they were evil…or the Beslan School attackers, or the Hamas attackers in Israel on October 7th, or just a few days ago, the knife attacker in Paris. 

In every one of these examples, along with the hundreds of other evil actors and deeds around the world, the anti-gun leftists all blame the gun instead of the evil or criminal person using it. Evil is evil whether the weapon used is a gun, a knife, a chainsaw, a vehicle, or something else. 

Over the years, in debates with those anti-gun dangerous quacks, I’ve observed one consistent trait. They all share what economist Dr. Thomas Sowell famously observed:

“People convinced of their own superior wisdom and virtue have no time to spare for what other people want, whether in housing or health care or a whole range of other things.”

KNOW YOUR HISTORY

Amazingly, the anti-gun quacks also cannot seem to comprehend that others have any different views than theirs.  They actually believe that if we all were just disarmed, the world would be a safer place. What I find terrifying is that those same people have ignored all of human history and man’s capacity for evil towards other men. But yet they want governments to have a monopoly on power?

During the tyrannical COVID lockdowns brought upon us by Dr. Fauci, our own government saw how easy it is to create fear and get people to submit.  Now the CDC and leftist lawmakers want to treat “gun violence” as a virus. Guns are inanimate objects, they are not self-aware or capable of independent action, and they certainly can’t make copies of themselves, as a virus does.

Evil is the issue, and it can never be reasoned with, or regulated. It can only be destroyed by those willing to stand up to it. Help us educate Iowans on the facts by joining or renewing your IFC membership here today. And please stay Ready at All Times
