CAL THOMAS COMMENTARY MARCH 25, 2021
HERE WE GO AGAIN. ANOTHER MASS SHOOTING IN COLORADO. 10 DEAD, THE GUNMAN, WHO WAS BORN IN SYRIA– WHICH MUCH OF THE MAJOR MEDIA DON’T WANT TO REPORT – AND CALLS FOR MORE GUN CONTROL.
THIS TIME IT WAS A CLEARLY DISTURBED, POSSIBLY MENTALLY ILL MAN — MAYBE A TERORIST– WHO IS DESCRIBED AS WHITE, SHOOTING WHITE PEOPLE. THE MEDIA COULD NOT TURN THIS INTO A RACIAL INCIDENT, SO THEY AGAIN MADE IT ABOUT THE NEED FOR TOUGHER GUN LAWS. IN CHICAGO, WHERE SOME OF THE TOUGHEST GUN LAWS IN THE NATION EXIST, AN AVERAGE WEEKEND SOMETIMES PRODUCES MORE SHOOTINGS AND MORE DEATHS THAN IN BOULDER.
SOMEONE INTENT ON COMMITTING MURDER WILL FIND A WEAPON NO MATTER HOW MANY LAWS ARE PASSED. BAN THE SALE OF ONE GUN, THEY’LL FIND ANOTHER, MAYBE THE SAME GUN ON THE BLACK MARKET.
IN A BROAD SENSE, THE PROBLEM IS SIN. SIN IS BEHIND EVERYTHING. A COUNTRY THAT WON’T PROTECT UNBORN LIFE IS FINDING IT DIFFICULT TO PROTECT BORN LIFE. IF ALL LIFE ISN’T PRECIOUS THEN NO LIFE HAS VALUE. THE SHOOTER IN BOULDER IS SAID BY HIS FAMILY TO HAVE MENTAL PROBLEMS. THE ONE IN ATLANTA HAD A SEX ADDICTION. TELL ME A LAW THAT WOULD HAVE PREVENTED THESE SHOOTINGS. THERE IS NONE. I’M CAL THOMAS.
