Do Something

Every time there is a mass killing, liberals in America predictably start the chant, "we've got to do something!"

Of course, they ignore the advice of the sage, Ronald Reagan -
"We must reject the idea that every time a law's broken, society is guilty rather than the lawbreaker. It is time to restore the American precept that each individual is accountable for his actions."

Liberals ignore that advice because they detest personal responsibility.

However, personal responsibility is not the only thing that liberals try to ignore. Specifically, liberals try to ignore the facts:
"In the past 48hrs, the USA horrifically lost 34 people to mass shootings.

On average, across any 48hrs, we also lose…

500 to Medical errors
300 to the Flu
250 to Suicide
200 to Car Accidents
40 to Homicide via Handgun

Often our emotions respond more to spectacle than to data."
- Neil deGrasse Tyson (via Twitter)

But should something be done?  For years, my reply to that question is a hearty "no." However, a recent YouTube video by  Gun Owners of America  has made me rethink that position. In short, I believe the following two things need to be done:

1. National constitutional carry.
All states, all the time.

2. Eliminate all gun free zones.
Carry allowed everywhere, all of the time, without restriction.


What say you?
