Don’t just do something, stand there, the old vaudeville line goes.
Reliably, this is the response of the Society for the Slovenly Minded, sometimes known by its nickname, the Democrat party.
When there is a mass shooting, the silly Los Angeles Times panics, drools all over the front of its dress, and stammers that guns should be taken away from Americans because. Just because that would make liberals feel better about themselves.
The Times, an unintentional comedienne, makes an hilarious point in its latest daffy, patent leather foot-stamping on gun control.
“Gun-related killings,” as the Times uncreatively captured the concept, wipe out 30,000 lives a year, “on a par with motor vehicle deaths.”
How quaintly conveyed.
The Times’s core contention is:
Since guns kill 30,000 homo sapiens, including homosexuals, every calendar year and “motor vehicles” kill 30,000 American mortals every year, guns should be pried from the bloody grips of their unworthy owners because “motor vehicle” dealers advertise in the Times and gunsmiths do not.
Logic is to liberals what klieg lights are to owls.
Take away guns because they make bad things happen. Multiply cars because their ad dollars put many more dollars in our empty pockets.
Gee, Mommy, can I be a when I grow up.
Nicky Goldberg, the op-ed section editor, may have been in drug or bubble gum rehab when logic was being taught to left-wing journalists.
“It’s too easy to access firearms,” the Times asserts, but if you have enough money, you can go to your neighborhood lot and purchase as many “motor vehicles” as you wish.
