Ever notice that when something really bad happens, let’s call it “X,” the first reflex of many politicians is to demand new legislation “to prevent X from even happening again!”
Our gal Hillary C. is among the greatest champions of this hustle. Just yesterday she tweeted,
Sigh. I do grow weary of this nonsense. In the first place, she actually has the breathtaking gall to call for everyone to put aside politics, while in the very same sentence making a patently political call to action. Does she really think no one notices this?
Second, at bottom her call for further gun regulation is really an expression of an unbiblical view of criminal justice.
You see, there are really only two basic approaches to criminal justice: crime punishment and crime prevention.
Crime punishment, the biblical approach, punishes the criminal, and the criminal only, for his wrongdoing. On the other hand, crime prevention seeks to regulate – that is to say, seeks to punish – everyone in the hope of preventing future wrong doing by a few.
Crime prevention is inherently unfair. Not only does it punish the innocent along with the guilty, but it also requires an enormous, expensive, and freedom crushing regulatory state to implement.
Ought there to be more gun laws? No. Such laws do little or nothing to prevent crime, but they do make it harder for deplorables everywhere to purchase and use firearms. But then, that’s really been Hillary’s agenda all along, has it not?
Never mind that she’s the murderer?
You know, it’s pretty interesting how many Clinton associates have tragic accidents that sadly cut short their lives.
Yes, those many instances as well. I was specifically thinking about Qaddafi’s end (being sodomized with some object–maybe a bayonet) for which Mrs. Clinton took credit though no U.S. troops were present. In this incident we have the U.S. Secretary of State admitting who was the commander of the terrorists in Libya. The same end is, or was, planned for Bashar al-Assad until the Russians stepped in. The Iranian leader, Kim Jong-un, and now the Venezuelan leader (or country) are being targeted with heightened rhetoric. The demise of the Middle East was planned well before this (PNAC); Mrs. Clinton, being only one link in a continuous chain of American terrorists. I’m of the opinion that the U.S. is not exceptional at all and is in serious need of national repentance.
Our foreign policy is a disaster. And yes, Hillary is certainly responsible for her wars of aggression along with many others.
