When the attack on Republican lawmakers at a Congressional baseball practice occurred Wednesday, the nation again witnessed that a good guy with a gun stops a bad guy with a gun. Yet rather than acknowledge that fact—and it is a fact—the left began blaming Congress for not passing more gun control, even as a Congressman was still bleeding on the field.
Think about it—people on the left responded immediately by blaming the victim for a violent crime that was carried out by a deranged left-wing zealot. The left’s reaction is the result of a complete abandonment of common decency. To them, somebody getting shot in a highly publicized setting is just another opportunity to push their gun control agenda. |

When a shooting occurs, the media goes looking for some way to connect the shooter to the right-wing groups they want so badly to believe are the cause of much violence. When it inevitably turns out to be a fellow leftist that did the killing, they have to figure out some way of preserving the narrative. The narrative is everything; the news must be crafted to fit and support the narrative (or made up, as it often is, right Dan Rather?)
The narrative the left has invented says that it is the right that is violent and angry, but as is usually the case with them, it turns out that what they accuse their political opponents of actually describes themselves. |

The mainstream media's bitterly partisan fake-news attacks on Trump failed to sink him in the primary, then in the general. They're perplexed why it hasn't worked, but it's like when they were trying to explain away the 18 years of no global warming by saying it was still going on, but that the ocean must be hiding it in the short term, or something (believe the theory, not the facts).
They seem to think the same about Trump. The attacks have failed so far, but they have faith that they WILL work if they just ratchet them up enough. They fail to see that their lies and bad behavior pushed the independent voters to Trump, not away from him, and that more displays of what the left is REALLY about are only going to do more of the same.

TO REMEMBER |
| Some of the worst abuses of government force in recent years were precipitated by technical and victimless gun-law violations. For example, the BATF claimed that the Branch Davidians possessed machine guns without paying the required federal tax and filling in the proper registration forms. So a tax case worth less than $10,000 led to a 76-man helicopter, machine gun, and grenade assault on a home in which 2/3 of the occupants were women and children. — Dave Kopel and Dr. Michael S.
