Think about this:
There is a terrible accident. You and several people are injured. One of the witnesses is a doctor and is able to immediately start administering first aid as well as stabilize some of the more critically injured. Here is the question: Would you allow this doctor to help the injured? Would you chastise him for practicing medicine in that intersection? I would think not. I would think that you would be THANKFUL that someone skilled at medicine was there to lessen the pain and suffering as much as possible.
Well, the same holds true with mass shooters. The length of time a mass shooter has to commit carnage is DIRECTLY linked to how soon a good guy with a gun shows up. If the good guy is already there, the carnage is limited to as little as possible. This is why mass murderers rarely start shooting if they see a police officer.
Walmart, by banning people with guns, has just made sure that a mass shooter has more time to kill more people.
One reply on “Something for those on the left to ponder:”
The dirty little secret of the left is that they are on the side of the shooter. They WANT him to succeed because then they can demand, as they have for as long as I can remember, something they call “common sense gun control”. Meaning, all the people who are not criminals, psychotics, or murdering psychopaths are to be disarmed.
It is that way, they think, they can achieve their long wished for goal of enslaving the good people because they are good people and ultimately reach the total destruction of the good because it is good.
I judge not by left’s words but by the consequences of their actions. Their words change but the consequences have not changed. It is human sacrifice without limit as far as the eye can see and beyond.
The logical conclusion is that we need to ELIMINATE gun free zones by law. Then pass a law, that if someone first points a gun at another he can be immediately shot to death and the shooter is absolved of all legal liability. If the person commuting the initial crime lives, he is to be tried and executed as quickly as possible by the means he chose to execute others.
NO SECOND CHANCES even if deemed insane! It is not the mental state that is the crime, it is the action.
It is easy to avoid being the initial shooter. Simply don’t start by pointing a gun at anyone unless you intend to kill and be killed. We might not be able to eliminate such criminals but we can make sure they don’t last long enough to do much harm.
