These people are foolish,
The media wants them afraid, so they feel fear on command. It was the same thing that was behind the COVID insanity.
Mass shootings are still vanishingly rare compared to the "regular" murders that happen everyday and largely fly under the radar. Being afraid of one rare type of murder while ignoring the majority of them is senseless. It's like reading about a new car in the paper and feeling unsafe for fear of being in an accident with that model of car while ignoring the large majority of car deaths that don't involve them.
Yes, the murder rate is up now, after decades of falling, but what do you expect when you allow Democrats to be in charge? It's still lower than in the 90s... were they afraid then? |

TO REMEMBER |
| Are we at last brought to such humiliating and debasing degradation, that we cannot be trusted with arms for our defense? Where is the difference between having our arms in possession and under our direction, and having them under the management of Congress? If our defense be the real object of having those arms, in whose hands can they be trusted with more propriety, or equal safety to us, as in our own hands? — Patrick Henry, 3 J. Elliot, Debates in the Several State Conventions 45, 2d ed. Philadelphia, 1836 |
