The Scalise attack shows gun control is still out of control
Majority Whip Steve Scalise was shot in the hip while practicing for a carity baseball game in Alexandria Virginia on Tuesday. Four aids were also hit. Scalise has been figthing for his life in critical condition. This incident was an act of domestic terrorism and the media is not calling it what it is. The assailant was captured fortunately, as an eye witness said he did not have a target. This incident has brought the discussion of the right to bear arms back to the forefront.
America must stand up to the errors of its past relative to the mindset around gun ownership. People were killed for sport in the public square during slavery and that is a form of domestic terrorism. SOME DIED BY HANGING, SOME BY GUNFIRE. ALL WERE MUDERED AS A RESULT OF HATE. History bears witness to the fact that our nation established the IRRESPONSIBLE GUN culture it is now fighting against to some extent. MORE OFTEN THAN NOT in mass killings large assault weapons instead of hand guns are used, PLACING FOOT POLICE AT A DISADVANTAGE. The right to keep and bear arms is as foremostly a self defense law and also extends to hunting for food and sport as well as protection against the government. Our law enforcement agancies call the pursuit of at-large criminals a man hunt. The connotation is there are times people may be treated as animals (i.e., hunted) to subdue them. What other country uses this language?
In the above mentioned incident and others similar incidents, it is obvious that gun control must be reformed.
