Sipsey Has It re: "Gun Violence"

In short, it is NOT "gun violence."

...the reason the collectivists blame "gun violence" and seek to expand the definition of "mentally ill" as pertains to restricting the availability of firearms is the traditional method of such people to win the argument -- citizen disarmament -- by framing the question and corrupting the language. Buy into that, and they've won the argument already -- an old Communist trick. Remember, they think anybody who resists them is, ipso facto, mentally ill. Why do you think they call us "gun nuts"? 

Besides, admitting that there is unrelenting evil in the world leads back to the Devil which leads back to God, and overarching moral authority other than their own cannot be conceded or tolerated. It was not accidentally that Obama criticized people who "cling to their Bibles and their guns." Collectivists view both as deadly dangers to their appetites....

He misses only one other point:  it ain't a "communist trick."  It belongs to the Father of lies, who simply leased it to the Commies, the Socialists, and the Democrats.  Yes, that's repetitive.
