More gun laws will not stop America’s moral decay

The left is retarded. It's as if banning penises is going to stop rape.

This past week our nation saw another morally lost young man enter a local school and proceed to shoot and kill 19 children and two teachers. The next shoe to drop was as predictable as the sunrise: Our nation’s elites rushed to their respective podiums to score political points. Their solution? Remove the personal rights of all law-abiding Americans and replace these rights with more laws.

In the minds of our country’s political class, this is the only solution. The average citizen’s freedom “to keep and bear arms” is clearly to blame for every heinous act reported on the nightly news. In the Mad Hatter’s world of today’s progressives, more laws and less liberty are the only things that will arrest our cultural collapse.

The only acceptable solution our country’s smart folks see to the tsunami of violence sweeping over our schools and through our streets is to take freedom away from you and me and give more power to themselves. In their minds, gun ownership equals gun violence in the same way car ownership inevitably results in vehicular homicide. All other possibilities of cause and effect seem to completely escape their thinking.

Could it be that the problem is not guns but rather ideas? Could it be that the preaching victimization and fomenting resentment have resulted in this chaos? Could it be that belittling morality rather than the availability of bullets is what has led us to the nightmare of Uvalde, Buffalo and Sandy Hook? Could it be that dumbing down the value of life by creating a culture of death is the real monster behind the mask?

Call me crazy, but maybe worshipping government rather than God is the problem. Maybe extolling socialism rather than elevating self-evident truths is the problem. Maybe the moral nihilism presently taught in your local public schools, and not the law-abiding citizens exercising their constitutional right to protect themselves, is the problem.
