The Washington Times<\/a> quotes, Department of Homeland Security Secretary Jeh Johnson today on that George Stephanopoulos show, whatever it’s called, singing the song of his (liberal) people;<\/p>\n

Homeland Security Secretary Jeh Johnson said Sunday that he was \u201cdevastated\u201d by the recent shooting at Fort Hood and will work to do more to prevent mass shootings.<\/p>\n

\u201cI was devastated. It\u2019s Army bases, it\u2019s Navy installations, it\u2019s schools,\u201d he said on \u201cThis Week with George Stephanopoulos.\u201d \u201cI think we need to do more. I want solutions before I leave office.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

The title of that song is, of course, “do something!” First, I’d point out to the secretary that the latest shooting at Fort Hood doesn’t qualify as a “mass shooting” as defined by the liberal media. It takes more than three victims in order for the media to count it as a “mass shooting” so they can discount incidences where “a good guy with a gun” actually stopped the shooter. Oh, by the way, Ivan Lopez was stopped by a good gal with a gun.<\/p>\n

But, I wonder what, exactly, Mr Johnson plans on doing. Military bases are already “gun free zones”, not that people with ill-intentions care much about those laws. The military doesn’t allow open or concealed carry on posts. So, what is left to do? Disarm all military people? Ban guns everywhere?<\/p>\n

I’m sure Mr. Johnson felt better about himself after he said those words, and the Liberal Bobbleheads at home all nodded approvingly. They felt better that someone said they’d “do something” without even knowing what Johnson had in mind. Mostly, because “do something” usually means taking away rights from folks who aren’t liberals – especially when it comes to guns. <\/p>\n

Across town, Rick Santorum addressed the issue at “Face the Nation” says the Washington Times<\/a>;<\/p>\n

\u201cIf we are a country where the criminal doesn\u2019t know if someone has a gun or not, they\u2019re going to think twice,\u201d he said on \u201cFace the Nation.\u201d \u201cI think people do analyze the situation and if they want to accomplish something, they want to kill a lot of people, they\u2019re not going to go someplace where someone will shoot back.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Mr Johnson’s side wants “guns no where”, while Mr Santorum’s side wants “guns everywhere”. The “guns no where” side has had their way for decades and it’s not working, so it’s time to give “guns every where” a chance.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
