No AR-15 involved in the Texas School Shooting so the response has been muted...wonder why?

“[E]arlier reports that the shooter used an AR-15 style rifle were wrong,” Texas Gov. Greg Abbott said in a statement about Friday’s murders at Santa Fe High School. Per the Houston Chronicle, “He said the shooter … used a shotgun and a .38 caliber revolver…”

No semi-automatic handguns or rifles were involved. No so-called “assault weapons”…

You could almost hear gun-grabber hearts breaking. And it leads to a dilemma for them, because their M.O. is to call for gun bans as a necessary step every time semi-autos are used. To be consistent, especially noting how much human carnage was accomplished without them, they must now demand something they haven’t felt politically ready to unveil: A ban on revolvers and shotguns.

You know it's what they ultimately want.

The first would return to the origins of the modern gun-grab movement.

“We're going to have to take one step at a time, and the first step is necessarily — given the political realities — going to be very modest,” Handgun Control, Inc. founder Nelson “Pete” Shields told The New Yorker in 1976.  To help mask its intent, the group changed its name to the Brady Campaign to Prevent Gun Violence, but its ultimate goals as articulated by Shields remain.

“[W]e'll have to start working again to strengthen that law, and then again to strengthen the next law, and maybe again and again. Right now, though, we'd be satisfied not with half a loaf but with a slice. Our ultimate goal — total control of handguns in the United States — is going to take time. . . . The first problem is to slow down the number of handguns being produced and sold in this country. The second problem is to get handguns registered. The final problem is to make possession of all handguns and all handgun ammunition-except for the military, police, licensed security guards, licensed sporting clubs, and licensed gun collectors-totally illegal.”

No AR-15?

Then its not a legit school shooting ... I guess that's the case.  If you've followed the coverage its been different because of that fact.

The loss of life?

Horrendous.

The number of people injured?

Appalling.

The response from the media?  Let's take Chris Matthews Show.  10 minutes of coverage and then back to the Russia Collusion nonsense.

It wasn't that was on other shows following an incident of this type.  It was wall to wall coverage and the same applied to the rest of the MSNBC lineup.

The facts are simple.

For some unknown reason there is a segment of our population that wants to return to Serf status...Slave status.

You do know what that is don't you?

Serfs and Slaves were not allowed to have weapons of any kind to protect themselves.  The curious thing is that this was a worldwide thing.  Even in Japan the emperor did not allow the peasants to own weapons which birthed the so called "ninja" that turned farm tools into weapons.

Why any individual would PURPOSEFULLY seek to deny themselves the tools to protect themselves from predatory individuals is beyond me but many so called adults are all about it!

One thing is certain.

I can't speak for you but for me, the second guns become illegal is the second I become a criminal.
