Gun Violence In The News, Logical Conclusion is. . .

By Douglas V. Gibbs

In the Los Angeles area, it began with a tragedy at Gardena High School, where a student brought a loaded gun to school in his backpack that discharged when the bag was dropped, shooting two students with one bullet. Then, outside of El Camino Real High School, a would-be car thief shot an LAUSD police officer in the chest. A few hours after that, outside of Bell High School, a 16-year-old student leaving school was shot in a drive-by attack that left the victim in serious condition.

In just a 24-hour period between Sunday and Monday, 11 officers were shot in five states.

The media reported these happenings with glee, for they want the progressive liberal leftists to put into place gun control measures.

Gun control, of course, would not take firearms out of the hands of the criminal element, only out of the hands of the law-abiding citizens - opening up the opportunity for gun violence to actually increase.

Also, remember this: The shot heard 'round the world at Lexington Green occurred because the British were headed to Concord to. . . take our guns.
