Emotional Responses to School Shootings

Rather than address the inherent violent nature of the state or even humans themselves, we are bombarded with a popular view that inanimate objects are responsible, and their restriction or prohibition will somehow alleviate this social violence. If only that we're the case, but alas, we live in a complicated real world where feelings and facts are often at odds with each other. Tragedies bring out a variety of emotional responses;

As a result of this new school shooting, you will be able to see a massive sweep to outlaw semi-automatic rifles, ban handguns, do everything they can to crush our ability to stand up to a tyrannical government or defend our homes.  This is the beginning of the end for American Liberty.

What the response should be, is that Every Responsible Adult be encouraged to pack a gun for defense and have access to a rifle.  Evil is not stopped by giving in to it or running away from it… and what we have seen today is truly Evil.  Evil that ran unchecked.

Tu ne cede malis...
