Can the left just stop with the pretense that they care about safety?
Whenever anyone brings up terrorists or the lack of vetting of refugees, the left immediately mocks them and insinuates that anyone who thinks ISIS poses a threat to the U.S. is some kind of little wimp. They usually say something stupid, like go hide under your bed. These are the same numbnuts who demand safe spaces from differing opinions. Then they turn around and act like mass shooters are on every corner. Who is overreacting?
The left doesn't talk about how Chicago had more gun deaths in a weekend than mass shootings all year. I don't know why. While a mass shooter is bad, isn't it worse having hundreds of killer gang members on the loose? The most dangerous cities are run by liberals and often have strict gun control. Seriously, the best argument against liberal policies are their own track records.
The left goes out of their way to vilify gun owners, yet does their best to minimize the threat from radical Muslims. They don't count the 9/11 deaths when calculating the victims of radical Muslims. Seriously, every article starts after 9/11 when discussing the threat of terrorism. They do this to make it look like terrorists aren't a problem. Now they turn around and tell us that mostly non-citizens are on a terror watch list and that it's necessary to trample citizen's rights to deal with the problem.
Let's be honest. You are in more danger from a person texting on their Obamaphone while driving than you are of being a victim of a mass shooting. Yet, there isn't any outrage from the left and they aren't talking about taking away people's cars and phones. In just 6 months of 2015, 19,000 people were killed in auto accidents and millions were seriously injured.

The left is all freaked out because congress didn't shred the constitution by trampling on our rights by pretending to target people on a list. If government has evidence that the 80,000 people on their list are terrorists, they should be arresting them, not writing their names on the chalkboard like they are bad children.
On the other hand, the Obama administration will hand weapons to anyone. Fast and Furious flooded Mexico with guns. Obama has sent weapons, tanks, airplanes and money to hostile Muslim countries. He just wants to take them away from the law-abiding American public. That makes him dangerous and I think he should be on a list.
The libs are whining now because they couldn't trample our rights. They had to know it wouldn't fly because their proposal was unconstitutional. I think it was a test to see if their supporters would be willing to let them deny rights to anyone they targeted. I am sickened by their supporters who just don't care and are willing to let them do what they want and it's all based on emotions.
I got into an argument with a relative who said she doesn't care about the constitution, she just can't stand to see people killed. I had to point out that more deaths are caused by gangs in cities, car accidents and other things. If death of innocents bothers you, then get riled about the most common causes and find solutions that would actually work.
Gun control won't work. It never has and it's just an excuse to render the people of this country helpless against tyrants.
