Sometimes, no matter how sarcastic one can be, the reality of matters is even more ridiculous. Sometimes, living the the USA today seems like being inside of an old Mad! magazine story. You really think these folks are joking. They're not. They may be insane, or malevolent, or any of a number of other things, or several simultaneously. It's not clear what factor or combination of them is at work.
What is clear is that they are serious, and that they have, somehow, acquired temporal power, and that they are, at BEST, oblivious to the damage they do or how stupid it all is.
Examples are not hard to find, though NBC, CNN, ABC, and the NY Times seem to find it so.
Gun control, for example. Ignore, for the moment, the 2nd Amendment. The thieves of Ovomit's administration and their butt-kissers certainly do. Let's see some examples of it in real life.
Let's examine an area with grotesquely heavy-handed gun control laws, and see how that works, shall we? Let's pick, oh, how about Chicago. Sound good. Been under pretty much continuous Democrat governance for a VERY long time, and has very strict rules. Ought to be a gun-free zone, no firearms related homicides or assaults or the like. Paradise on earth, right? Not quite.
Comes now some people at the website Hey Jackass! with some actual data (by the way, you can now find that site on the sidebar links list.). And the results are, let us say, not quite in keeping with those expectations of paradise on this earth, or at lest in those city limits. Go, take a look. As of this moment, they're recording 337 firearms homicides year to date. Close enough to one per day to make no difference, and we're not to New Year's Eve yet.
