CNN: Dont bug us with facts. Weve got an agenda
If you werent quite sure what the unbiased opinion about gun control from so-called objective journalists was, youll know now. This morning on CNN, anchor Don Lemon said it doesnt matter that gun crime has been consistently going down since the 1990s as gun control has decreased. FBI crime statistics prove this fact year after year.
It doesnt matter if gun violence is down. 20 children are dead here and 6 adults are dead, and the mother of a person who was not mentally who is mentally challenged in some way is dead. so to say that gun violence is down we need to talk about mental health, yes. mental health is a secondary issue. We need to get guns and bullets and automatic weapons off the streets. They should only be available to police officers and to hunt al Qaeda and the Taliban and not hunt children.
Lemon is correct, 20 children are dead and their parents have been living a nightmare since they were killed last week, however, the way to react to the situation is not by turning sane gun owners, including semi-automatic gun owners, into criminals. There are about 60 million gun owners in the United States, many of them own semi-automatic handguns and rifles and have zero interest in hunting children as Lemon suggested. Also, automatic weapons are already off the streets.
