As the summer of violence drags on, aided and abetted by Democrat mayors who have in some cases literally marched with and promised capitulation to the Marxist Black Lives Matter groups demanding that police be defunded, many of these mayors are now scrambling to assign blame for spiking violence in their cities. Naturally, they�re not looking at their own misguided policies, but at outside, unrelated factors. |

Put the blame where it belongs. It's not a gun problem. It's a problem with feral low life individuals that have no respect for anything including human life. Most of them already have criminal records and have gotten expert at gaming the judicial system. One program that would work at reducing crime would be to lock them up, but these democratic controlled city governments do not want to lock up their constituents.
Furthermore, the liberal judicial system abets the problem by its failure to provide adequate punishment.

These people are committing murder because someone "dissed" them, committing untold number of rapes, assaults, armed robberies, burglaries, and other property crimes.
These are not no harm, no foul crimes.
Too many times they get out on bail or probation and go right back to committing crimes. |

TO REMEMBER |
| I do believe that where there is a choice only between cowardice and violence, I would advise violence. Thus when my eldest son asked me what he should have done had he been present when I was almost fatally assaulted in 1908 [by an Indian extremist opposed to Gandhi's agreement with Smuts], whether he should have run away and seen me killed or whether he should have used his physical force which he could and wanted to use, and defend me, I told him it was his duty to defend me even by using violence. Hence it was that I took part in the Boer War, the so-called Zulu Rebellion and [World War I]. Hence also do I advocate training in arms for those who believe in the method of violence. I would rather have India resort to arms in order to defend her honor than that she should in a cowardly manner become or remain a helpless witness to her own dishonor. � Mohandas K. Gandhi, Young India, August 11, 1920 from Fischer, Louis ed.,The Essential Gandhi, 1962 |
