Gun Control Lobby Sinking to Usual Lows


iconIn Minnesota, a young teen murdered his grandparents, stole his grandfather's police issued vehicle and firearms, and then proceeded to shoot up his school. Not surprisingly, the gun grabbers are exploiting the tragedy, in hopes that no one will notice that the Minnesota shootings had nothing to do with so-called "assault weapons", "cop-killer guns", or "gun show loopholes".

...lawmakers have allowed the Federal assault weapons ban to expire, limited law enforcement investigations of gun sellers, mandated the immediate destruction of records of gun sales, and stand poised to make it impossible for victims of gun violence to seek justice against reckless gun sellers in the courts.

"We need to do more to make sure our communities -- and especially our young people -- are safe from gun violence," said Kate Havelin, President of the Twin Cities, Minnesota Million Mom March chapter. "Today I hope all of us think of those who died, those who were injured, and all of those whose lives have been changed because of gun violence."

"When will our leaders have enough?" asked Sarah Brady, Chair of the Brady Campaign. "When will the government do something to help stop the bloodshed? Red Lake sends all of America's mothers and fathers a message about how vulnerable all of our children are."

In actuality, it was gun control (a disarmed security guard) that allowed this young man to wreak so much unanswered havoc.
