Blame The Nut, Not The Gun
May 27, 2014 Commentary, Second Amendment
Or the knife or the car…
Elliot Rodgers stabbed people, shot people and hit people with his car. He was a nut who had real issues. One only needs to read his words to understand that he had serious mental issues and that his view of the world and of life was skewed. He murdered people, an act that is already against the law.
The liberal left is using this event to once again ratchet up the anti gun rhetoric. The liberals want more gun control and more background checks even though this nut was from one of the most anti gun (and restrictive) states in the Union. None of the laws liberals want would have stopped this guy from murdering people. He stabbed several and used his car as a weapon. Without the gun people still would have died.
The Santa Barbara County Sheriff’s Office identified the three men found dead in Rodger’s apartment as Cheng Yuan Hong, 20; George Chen, 19; and Weihan Wang, 20. Hong and Chen were his roommates, while Wang was visiting the apartment, the sheriff’s office said. The three students died from “multiple stab wounds” before the shooting rampage, the sheriff’s office said. [emphasis mine]
No one is calling for a ban on guns or more strict requirements for a driver’s license. They are focusing on the gun which was just another tool used by a mentally deranged person to murder people.
Who to blame is the first question from liberals when these things happen. The response in this case is the NRA and Republicans.
No one has stated the obvious and that is the murderer and ONLY the murderer is responsible for what happened.
The knife did not murder or injure people. The car did not murder or injure people and the gun did not murder or injure people. Rodgers did all of that and he used those items to do it.
If a person is determined to do harm there is nothing that can be done to stop him. The fact that he used a knife and a car shows that he did not need the gun to inflict pain and cause mayhem.
[note]Another case where the police knew there was an issue: “Rodger’s family contacted police after discovering social media posts about suicide and killing people, family spokesman and attorney Alan Shifman told reporters Saturday.
Six policemen showed up at Rodger’s home in Isla Vista on April 30, but they found nothing alarming. So they told Rodger[sic] to call his mother and they reassured her that he was OK, according to Astaire.” (Seems to me this might be enough to get a court order to remove any weapons until they were sure he was not unhinged ~ BD)[/note]
There will be more calls for gun control from all kinds of people who don’t really care about the victims. They care only about a political agenda and that agenda includes disarming those who had nothing to do with this (or any other) event. Liberals do not care about the victims and they actually like when these things happen. It allows them to push a false narrative to further their dream of disarming Americans.
All the shooters in these events turn out to be left wing nut jobs so perhaps we should ban liberalism and end the violence.
I pray for the victims but I will never agree that America has a gun problem.
America has a liberal problem, particularly nut job liberals.
Cave canem!
Never surrender, never submit.

Michael Jackson; Anti Semite, Child Molester
Jun 30, 2009 Political
There is no doubt that Michael Jackson was a hugely talented singer and dancer. He had a lot of hit songs and he invented dance moves that others still watch in bewilderment. Jackson was a very good entertainer until sometime after his Thriller album when he began to get very, very weird.
One almost feels pity for a person deprived of a childhood he longed so much for. He bought a house and made an amusement park out of the property. He looked like a person who never grew up and this is probably why he loved to be around children.
But Jackson had a dark side and it was not pretty. He was mentally disturbed and those around him were enablers who allowed him to fall further and further into instability. He was a great singer but he died a pathetic, worn out shell of a human. He must have disliked his life and who he was because he spent so much money on physically changing himself.
Jackson has been receiving all kinds of accolades from the people around the world. The very people who distanced themselves from the weird guy of late are out in droves to discuss what a great guy he was. He did give a lot to charity and he did try to do good things but he was no saint.
Jackson was an anti Semite. He wrote and performed a song that has the lyrics:
“Jew me, sue me
Everybody do me
Kick me, kike me
Don’t you black or white me”
He somehow escaped serious problems after this song though many were upset. Jackson said he would redo the song with the words changed but he did not. He evidently hated Jews. Then again, maybe he hated blacks the way he kept trying to get whiter.
Al Sharpton and Jesse Jackson are out with their tributes (anything for face time) but since they are both anti Semites it is not surprising that they would embrace Michael’s life.
Jackson also had several problems with accusations of child molestation. The alleged incidents involved young boys and Jackson ended up spending millions to pay them and their families off. When he actually went to trial it was a media circus and the thing that saved him was the inconsistency of the stories of the accuser and his mother. That does not mean Jackson was innocent.
He served children alcohol and allowed them to sleep in his bed. This is disturbing and strengthens the argument of his deteriorating mental health.
While I freely admit that Jackson was a talented artist I cannot see how people can forget what his life was and the bad things he did. He was no hero, he was no idol, he was no role model. He was a troubled soul who hated Jews and molested children.
If it had been my son Jackson would have died at a much younger age and the cause of death would have been something close to lead poisoning.
Michael Jackson was a tortured, twisted soul who lived a dark and dirty life (particularly later on) where the good he did was overshadowed by his hatred for Jews and his “love” for little boys. Those who are raising him to the level of sainthood ignore his serious flaws and leave the message that it is OK to do horrible things if you are famous and talented.
Jackson’s death overshadowed the death of Farah Fawcett earlier in the day. I read that Fawcett died and went to Heaven. The Lord asked her what she wanted and she said that she wanted the world to be safer for children.
Jackson died later that day.
I hope his tortured soul finds peace in the afterlife but I will not be celebrating his life or mourning his death. Aside from his artistic talent, I see nothing special about him.
