We&#8217;ve been told that the country expects us to have a discussion about gun control, but mostly my side is expected to sit down and listen while we&#8217;re insulted and subjected to lies by people who don&#8217;t know the difference between stocks and flash suppressors. Now they drag children into this so-called discussion. The adults don&#8217;t know what they&#8217;re talking about, but we&#8217;re supposed to listen to children who, last week, we were lecturing about the dangers of eating laundry detergent.<\/p>\n<p>A father of one of last week&#8217;s victims, Andrew Pollack, was himself victimized in the media when he showed up at the Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School wearing  a Trump 2020 T-shirt. While he went through the grief process, goobers on the Left beat him up for his politics. He&#8217;ll get it again because he went to talk to the President and told the President that his focus should be on protecting students rather than get embroiled in the politics of gun control.<\/p>\n<p>Colton Haab, an 18-year-old survivor of the shooting <a href=\"https:\/\/www.realclearpolitics.com\/video\/2018\/02\/22\/shooting_survivor_colton_haab_cnn_gave_me_scripted_question_after_denying_question_about_armed_guards.html\">said<\/a> that he refused to take part in CNN&#8217;s town hall-style program because CNN producers rejected his planned remarks that didn&#8217;t focus on more gun control;<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>&#8220;Colton wrote questions about school safety, suggested using veterans as armed school security guards but claims CNN wanted him to ask a scripted question instead so he decided not to go,&#8221; Stanwood reported.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;CNN had originally asked me to write a speech and questions and it ended up being all scripted,&#8221; Haab said. &#8220;I don&#8217;t think that it&#8217;s going get anything accomplished. It&#8217;s not gonna ask the true questions that all the parents and teachers and students have.&#8221;<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>CNN denies that account, but <a href=\"https:\/\/nypost.com\/2016\/01\/06\/cnns-long-history-of-allowing-democratic-town-hall-plants\/\">Michelle Malkin reminds<\/a> us of CNN&#8217;s record of deceit in their &#8220;Town hall&#8221; programs.<\/p>\n<p>The media is focused like a laser on banning so-called assault rifles, a product that they can&#8217;t even define. There were tons of failures going back years which caused the shootings last week and we still don&#8217;t even have answers to simple questions like &#8220;How does someone who has been forbidden to come on school grounds with even a backpack get a long gun in the hallways without someone noticing?&#8221; Yet, we&#8217;re going to listen to children about policy decisions. Beyond the frightful appearance of the guns, what characteristics should we ban and still remain true to the Second Amendment?<\/p>\n<p>There are hundreds of things that will make students safer in their schools that are easier than trying to ram gun control down our throats.<\/p>\n<p>Every sissy who ever fired a gun uses that experience to tell me to get rid of my scary black rifles &#8211; shut up, you&#8217;re coming off as a bunch of fear mongering pansies with your &#8220;The Time for Civilians to Own AR-15s Is Over&#8221; bullshit. You have your right to an opinion, but I have a right to call you a pansy, too. In fact, it&#8217;s time for journalists to be required to background checks and psyche profiles before they write. Don&#8217;t like me imposing on your Constitutional Rights? Well, now you know how I feel. <\/p>\n<p>We&#8217;re not being told the entire truth about the events of last week, yet, I&#8217;m being lectured on gun control in nebulous, knee jerk platitudes. No, I won&#8217;t sit still while students lecture me. And the NRA can stop calling me &#8211; three times they&#8217;ve shook their tin cup at me since noon yesterday.<\/p>\n<p>And, oh, a preemptive &#8220;F*** you&#8221; to Mountain Climbing Colorado Joe who has been haunting gun control posts all week.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The days are gone when I tolerate lectures on gun control.
