Gun Grabbers Let the Cat Out of the Bag

 During a recent meeting of the Virginia Commonwealth Senate Courts of Justice committee, two gun-grabbing groups inadvertently gave away the whole game.  The let the cat out of the bag, so to speak, without realizing their mistake. At Ammoland yesterday, Tred Law had the story at Gun Control Groups Say the Bad Part Out Loud: 'Screw Public Safety'. I urge gentle readers to view the video link and watch as several women from Moms Demand Action and Brady oppose harsher sentencing for criminals using guns to commit crimes. Why would these women want to disarm law-abiding gun owners, yet mete out lighter sentences to criminals? It makes no sense, does it?

This raises a critical question: Do these groups truly care about public safety, or is their agenda primarily about disarming law-abiding citizens?

The Virginia Citizens Defense League (VCDL) has long argued that gun control advocates use crime as a pretext to push for stricter gun laws, rather than genuinely aiming to reduce crime. The testimony presented by these groups at the hearing seems to support this claim. Representatives from organizations like Mom’s Demand Action and Brady opposed the bill, arguing that mandatory minimum sentences do not effectively reduce crime and disproportionately affect minority communities. While these concerns are not completely without merit, they overlook a fundamental reality:

…repeat violent offenders pose a significant threat to public safety, and keeping them behind bars protects innocent people.

One can see in the video that several Republican Senators get it. These gun-grabber groups including Everytown for Gun Safety, Moms Demand Action for Gun Sense, the Brady Campaign, and Giffords wait for a mass shooting to hit the news, then dance in the blood of the victims pretending that it was the gun that did the killing, and not the poor misunderstood miscreant. In fact, some of the people are useful idiots who actually believe that. Sad.

Now, I read the Bible every day, and I can tell you that before the gun was invented, people were killing each other by the thousands with swords, knifes, axes, spears, bows and arrows, rocks and stones-you name it. Guns are a more efficient way to kill, but it is not the guns that cause people to murder. It is, as it has always been, the evil in the human heart.

The Prophet Isaiah in chapter 11 forsaw the day we can dispense with our weapons:

“The wolf also shall dwell with the lamb,

The leopard shall lie down with the young goat,

The calf and the young lion and the fatling together;

And a little child shall lead them.

7The cow and the bear shall graze;

Their young ones shall lie down together;

And the lion shall eat straw like the ox.

8The nursing child shall play by the cobra’s hole,

And the weaned child shall put his hand in the viper’s den.

9They shall not hurt nor destroy in all My holy mountain,

For the earth shall be full of the knowledge of the Lord

As the waters cover the sea.

That day will be when Christ comes again. Until then, we better hang onto our guns

Please go read the whole article, and the links as well. Law notes that the debate on guns is tiresome. That is true. But as Jefferson note, the price of freedom is eternal vigilance.
