The Incoherent 'March for Our Lives'

Yup, about nailed it on the head. Agenda driven and then use the vocal kids who are also KIDS who are also very ignorant of our laws and our COTUS.

The Incoherent 'March for Our Lives'

As I watched news clips from today's nationwide "March for our Lives," I asked myself a simple question that no one in the overwrought news media was asking:

What do they want?

"We want change" was chanted and a lot of dire warnings to the NRA, to politicians supported by them, and Second Amendment supporters (yeah, that damn Constitution) were issued. But something tangible that the nation could rally around to effect "change"? Not so much.

"Gun control" is a misnomer. Believing that any kind of gun control would have saved a single life at Parkland or any other school shooting is ludicrous. This particular brand of American violence is not manufactured from the barrel of a gun but made in the troubled and diseased minds of individual youths. And to take a tragedy and make political hay out of it -- while using traumatized children to sell a political viewpoint? It doesn't get much lower than that.

With no specific agenda, no message except the pain and anguish of losing friends and loved ones, and no chance that any of the dozen or so legislative proposals currently in the congressional hopper will stop a single school shooting, I ask, again, a logical, reasonable question about why these gatherings are anything more than political sideshows designed to evoke an emotional response in the public in service to a left-wing political agenda:

What do they want?

It is so weak! Attempt to control an inanimate object, but take no steps to control
someone that will, when the mental sickness strikes them, activate that piece of cold,
hard iron, wood, and / or plastic to cause harm and mayhem.

Well, liberals have to blame something, so why not blame some object that has no
heartbeat or consciousness. Easy-peasy just to make liberals feel they have accomplished
something.

While we are at it, control automobiles. They kill more people annually than firearms.
Control knives. They kill, too.
Control hammers and hatchets. They kill, too.

How about control PEOPLE? The gun-grabbers do not care about the 2nd Amendment,
so why should they care about the other Freedoms in the Bill of Rights?

Rest - https://pjmedia.com/trending/the-incoherent-march-for-our-lives/Maybe we SHOULD address those "poor victimized kids". Seems to me, 999 times out of a thousand, it's THEIR generation doing the sh*t. My generation had Charles Manson and we thought 7 people was a horrendous massacre in 69. Wonder which video game or APP they're playing nowadays where you mow down entire crowds without a reckoning (just a reset) that makes them think it's okay?

I know Pong from back in MY day made me sure want to go out and commit mass murder with a ping pong paddle :laugh:
