It’s Who They Are :: By Steve Schmutzer

The Highland Park, Illinois shooting tragedy is just the latest excuse for libs to beat the same drum.

“We need more gun control!”

It’s their standard drivel. The left’s Pavlovian responses are so predictable that it’s plain they don’t properly think through the issues.

First off, Illinois has the eighth strictest gun laws in the nation, according to the Giffords Law Center to Prevent Gun Violence. That didn’t prevent a freakish punk with facial tattoos and criminal intent from fulfilling his warped fantasies.

More gun laws don’t keep the criminals from getting them. They just prevent the good guys from owning them. It’s no different than revoking the licenses of sober drivers because too many drunk drivers are killing them.

Second, studies using data from 1977 to 1992 (Lott and Mustard, 1997) found that states implementing shall-issue laws saw significant decreases in rates of violent crime, murder, rape, and assault. Their “more guns = less crime” findings have been supported by other similar studies.

The bottom line is criminals don’t want to risk getting shot. That’s why most mass shootings take place at gun-free zones like schools.

Third, we need to admit the failure of law enforcement. Bobby Crimo III, the Highland Park perp who dressed as a woman during his attack, was known to law enforcement. His violent videos and intentions, his close ties to Antifa and the Democratic Socialists of America, his infatuation with the occult, and many markings of liberal fascism all marinated his social media.

This was one wacked-out kid who showed every evidence of being a mentally ill foot soldier of the left. And law enforcement did nothing about it – – not until it was too late.

This unfortunate situation recalls the system-wide failures of the Uvalde, TX tragedy. We now know the corrupt Police Chief, Arredondo, had not only donated money to far-left Beto “Hell-yes-we’re-coming-after-your-AR15s” O’Rourke, but he’d also ordered his officers to stand down and not go in after the shooter. The door was unlocked, the officers were armed and trained and ready to do their job, but – – well, there’s that leftie thing. It interferes with good values and common sense.

“We need more gun control!” Yeah – right. Whatever.

What’s abundantly plain is that the gun’s no more at fault for what happened in Highland Park, Illinois, than a pencil is at fault for a failed test.

In their hearts, the Dems already know this. Their problem is the facts interfere with their agenda. And so, they froth and rage. Volume and violence have always been a weak argument’s best friends.

The recent overturning of Roe v. Wade is another situation that showcased the left’s penchant for nonsense and violence. Abortion wasn’t outlawed; it was turned back over to the states to decide. That’s where the issue belonged in the first place.

There is nothing in the Constitution that grants federal abortion rights. Even the late Ruth Bader Ginsberg, a far-left adherent, knew this and noted the problem.

But again, the facts didn’t matter. I hadn’t seen the Democrats that angry since the slaves were freed.

Oh – – – you didn’t know?

Yep, the Democrats were the party of slavery, of the KKK, of Jim Crow, and of segregation. History is very clear about this. The Democrats were the ones to suppress the rights of black Americans over and over. The left has always been about violence against others, which explains why they are the biggest fans of abortion – even right up to the point of birth.

Margaret Sanger was the founder of Planned Parenthood, the seminal entity behind the abortion movement as we know it now. Sanger was a proponent of “negative eugenics,” the goal of which is to remove ‘undesirable hereditary traits’ by social intervention. She wanted to reduce the reproduction of those she considered inferior, and she said her goal was to “assist the race toward the elimination of the unfit.”

Was Sanger racist? Yep. Under Sanger’s direction, Planned Parenthood was marketed to minorities and women of color, and that strategy continues even now. A study by Protecting Black Lives, in 2012, found that 79 percent of Planned Parenthood’s abortion facilities were located within walking distance of minority communities.

The impact of abortions in the black community has been so profound that in 2008, Issues4Life Foundation wrote to the Congressional Black Caucus to denounce Planned Parenthood Federation of America and its “racist and eugenic goals,” calling for the organization to be defunded. But the Dems screamed loudly to promote abortion instead. All their colors showed. The Dems are not pro-choice. They are pro-death.

It’s interesting to note that right after Roe v. Wade got overturned, all the libs became biologists. Suddenly, they all knew what a woman was. Their depraved goals needed a quick change to the narrative.

We hear that the left is “unhinged,” and that is true. This has been particularly so in their reactions to President Trump and his supporters.

Although the right is deeply distraught with the fraudulent election of President Biden and with his “Build Back Bolshevik” policies, they don’t riot in the streets, torch cars, beat up bystanders, threaten to kill electors, shoot cops, form filthy communes in public places, encourage assassinations, promote anarchy, plan hit squads against homes, claw at the doors of the Supreme Court, bankroll mobs, shut down free speech, nor ask for safe rooms, teddy bears, pet therapy, and Play-Doh.

When conservatives disagree with the liberal-socialist agenda, they don’t flood Twitter with murder threats or roundhouse kick peaceful protesters. They don’t menace the left with threats of rape, and they don’t shoot Democrat lawmakers at baseball games.

They don’t talk about blowing up the White House, and they don’t pose with severed heads of the President. Conservatives are not out there shouting at folks in elevators, stabbing opposition candidates, encouraging supporters to harass liberal lawmakers wherever they find them, or burning the left’s campaign headquarters to the ground. The right didn’t start 574 “mostly peaceful protests” that saw hundreds of cops injured, dozens of people killed, and billions of dollars’ worth of property damage.

Conservatives don’t scream publicly for violence in the streets. Conservatives don’t attack and berate Christians for their beliefs and values at the same time as they are protecting and aiding Sharia law. Conservatives don’t call for impeachment just because they don’t like someone, and they don’t protect a two-tiered system of justice at all costs.

They don’t turn venerated proceedings for Supreme Court picks into chaotic protest rallies, and they don’t stonewall cabinet nominees for over a year. The right does not register illegal immigrants in a dishonest effort to create sympathetic voters, and conservatives do not go on national television to protect criminals from that group over the rights of their unfortunate – and legal – victims!

Our nation is being viciously torn apart – but not by those who value freedom, democracy, the rule of law, Constitutional rights, and secure borders. It’s not from those who carry guns responsibly to keep themselves and others safe.

We have a massive and obvious problem. The conduct of the left is now commonly unlawful, frequently depraved, routinely deceptive, persistently violent, habitually self-serving, frankly phony, and – on so many points – outrageously wrong!

It’s not that the left doesn’t understand the virtues of common sense, law, due process, and faith – but rather, they don’t want them! Committed liberals are engaged in a war against all things reasonable, righteous, and respectable. The plain facts make this clear.

Those who most despise God, His gospel, His values, His followers, and His systems of law and order which are based on His eternal Word – are also those who most likely call themselves leftists, socialists, liberals, progressives, or Democrats. It’s all the same.

You need to think about it. The left’s pattern of actions proves they’re agents of hate and violence.

It’s who they are.

 

The Intentional Agenda :: By Steve Schmutzer

Published on: by RR7

So let me get this straight…

Salvador Ramos, an 18-year-old boy, lived with his grandmother. He liked to cross-dress and wear eyeliner, at least enough to take selfies and post them on social media.

Somewhere along the line, this kid – this newbie to adulthood – acquired sufficient resources to purchase two brand new Daniel Defense AR15 rifles, plus 375 rounds of 5.56 ammo, optics, and some tactical body plates. He pulled all that off without a driver’s license. That’s roughly $5,000.00 right there – a heckova’ dent in his fast-food income as a Wendy’s worker.

The multiple signs of dysfunction in his life were very clear. He was well-known as someone who had found pleasure in cutting his own face, who’d shot BB guns at random people, and had egged cars. He’d told his co-workers that he was going to buy the weapons that he did, and he’d often lashed out violently against his family, his friends, and strangers. He had photos taken of himself fighting with others in a local park.

He had posted his violent intentions on social media. He’d stated three times on Facebook that he was going to ‘shoot an elementary school.’

And he did.

When Ramos walked into Robb Elementary School on May 24 with his guns, the school resource officers confronted him, but they did not fire any shots or stop his advance. Instead, they allowed him to enter a classroom armed as he was, and to barricade himself in. In the hour or so that Ramos was in the school, frantic parents implored the police that were outside the building to do something about the shooter inside.

And the police did nothing.

In fact, it’s much worse than that. The police not only didn’t do anything, but they told the parents they needed to stand down too. Some brave parents didn’t accept the instruction. They got past impotent law enforcement, jumped the school’s fences, entered the building, and rescued their own children anyway.

The entire calamity is a lengthy list of failures and dysfunctions – for Salvador Ramos, AND for the people and systems around him. The warning signs were many, and the system’s botches were just as profound. The result is 19 kids and two adults died. Seventeen others were wounded.

“But – but… uh, we need more gun control,” the left snivels. “We HAVE TO repeal the 2nd Amendment!” their leadership is shrieking.

Never waste a crisis. That’s the liberal playbook. It’s predictable, purposeful, and pathetic.

Capitalize on peoples’ raw emotions.  Take advantage of their lack of sound judgment. That’s the left’s modus operandi.

Not only does the left completely miss the mark of what happened in Uvalde, Texas – and why things came down the way they did – but here’s the truth: they don’t WANT to know! The facts of the situation don’t fit the left’s preferred narrative as conveniently as fiction does.

Schools are gun-free zones, and they have been for a long time. Ramos knew the odds were in his favor in a place like that. The teachers weren’t “packing” anything, and the school officers weren’t stopping anyone. To top it all off, his friends and co-workers weren’t talking, the background checks weren’t filtering, his family wasn’t intervening, intelligence wasn’t discovering, and mental health wasn’t reacting.

“It’s the guns’ fault!” Yeah, right – – whatever.

Excuse me while I barf.

What’s prodigiously apparent at this point is liberals will say and do WHATEVER needs to be said and done to advance their chaos-fueled socialist agenda.

The libs have made it very clear already that they want to abort babies up to – and after – birth! But in the wake of this Texas crisis, they holler about the tragedy of these 19 kids dying. They’re right – it IS tragic! But the left has zero credibility to speak of it.

Let’s just cut to the chase here. The left wants to take away guns because they don’t want a society that is armed and capable of resisting their tyrannical agenda. All over the world, where citizens have been disarmed, ruthless tyranny follows. The left desperately wants that to happen here in America.

If the liberals REALLY cared about keeping our kids safe, they’d encourage the teachers to conceal-carry. They’d promote armed law enforcement at schools rather than trying to defund the police. They’d support kids having the asset of armed security the same way their own leaders do.

They’d discontinue the “gun-free” zone thing for schools altogether – – and they’d backtrack on their pro-abortion stance.

That’s what they’d do if they REALLY cared about keeping kids safe. But they really don’t.

For libs, the kids are just tools – – a means to an end, a way to reinforce whatever message the left most wants to advance. Here was what Barack Hussein Obama, the original Divider-in-Chief, tweeted after Salvador Ramos did his despicable deed:

“As we grieve the children of Uvalde today, we should take time to recognize that two years have passed since the murder of George Floyd under the knee of a police officer. His killing stays with us all to this day, especially those who loved him.”

George Floyd has absolutely nothing to do with the tragedy in Uvalde. Nada. Not a thing. Obama is gaslighting the rank-and-file radicals on the left to get upset and to take to the streets.

Don’t let a crisis go to waste – remember? Do and say whatever is opportunistic to serve the ‘almighty agenda.’

What is that agenda?  The left’s agenda is one-world rule. To achieve this, they must make America a whimpering participant on the globalist stage. They cannot permit this nation to be strong – or ‘great.’ Any leader who wishes to put America on a sensible course must be viciously attacked.

From their viewpoint, America must be weakened.  Therefore, all efforts must be expended to push America into being at war with itself. The flames of civil unrest must be fanned; blame racism for everything bad that happens.

Dissolve the nation’s borders. Stop building the wall. The country must be permitted to be overrun with illegal immigrants who will stress the system and introduce crime, disease, unprecedented drug use, and threats of terror. Blame everyone but yourself for the obvious problems that have been created.

Don’t forget the economy. Wreck it! Plentiful energy resources must be shut off.  Gas prices must hit record heights. Policies to encourage record inflation must be hammered through the halls of DC.

Food shortages must be strategically planned. That includes limiting the supply of baby formula. Unfounded fears and unscientific notions about ‘pandemics’ must be stoked. American weakness must be projected on the world stage – that encourages rogue nations to act out and create further global chaos.

And perhaps – above all – attack those who see the light.  Especially those MAGA folks.  Don’t let them gain any political power.  They clearly have the answers to the problems, so cheat any way you have to in order to keep them from office. Ridicule and censor those who point out what you’ve obviously done.

Say instead that it’s the MAGA folks that are the REAL problem. It’s the parents in the MAGA crowd we need to be concerned about – the ones who stand against depraved school curriculums, who don’t want boys in the girls’ bathroom, and who don’t want their 3rd-grade kids to be told they are transgenders.

Yeah – it’s those kinds of salt-of-the-earth law-abiding folks who are the REAL terrorists.  Right?

Wrong!

I’m not going to exercise my fingers anymore stating the patently obvious. Anyone with two ounces of common sense knows the right is not the problem. It’s the left that is depraved, murderous, upside down, demented, foolish, illogical, comedic, incompetent, dysfunctional, deceptive, and shameful.

In short – – the left is evil.  They get their marching orders from the Prince of Darkness. We need to call it like it is.

Jesus warned in Matthew 24:4-8 that His followers needed to be wary of mounting deception as human history winds down. Furthermore, they needed to be alert for rising international conflicts and a surge in racial and civil discord.

Famines and pandemics were events Jesus cautioned about too. In our times, we can see His warning includes those threats to public health and the food system which are strategically planned.

Make no mistake – the left is leaning heavily into a Marxist template. It’s what defines many of them. The rest of their ranks who will not speak out against their fellow-blues are basically complicit with these depravities too.

Jesus told us to keep our eyes open, to properly discern the times, and to understand what’s happening and why.  He said this because we can and we should. In fact, we must.

It’s clear – as we do these things – that the left of today is the prototype population of those who will follow the antichrist and support his one-world tyrannical agenda. They embrace evil, and it shows.

No question about it.
