3 REASONS DEMS DON'T WANT TO STOP SCHOOL MASSACRES

Exclusive: Joseph Farah has security strategy that 'has worked every time it has been tried'

Do Democrats really want to stop these tragic school shootings?

There is a way. 

But I guarantee they will have no part of it.

It doesn’t require amending the Constitution, eliminating the inalienable right to defend oneself, undermining the Bill of Rights nor following a plan that almost certainly will subject our children, grandchildren and great-grandchildren to far more mass murder attacks.

It’s simple. It’s inexpensive. And it’s tried and proved effective.

When you go to baseball or football game in America, there is screening security. We all expect it when we go to events like this. We do the same thing when we get on an airplane. In addition, there are armed police officers in these locations.

That’s why we don’t have many shooting attacks in airports and on planes and at major sporting events and concerts – unless, of course, it is conducted from an adjacent high-rise hotel location as in Las Vegas.

I might add that these simple procedures are used to guard the president of the United States and every member of Congress, unless they are attending softball practice and are attacked on an open field by an armed Democratic Bernie Sanders supporter intent on killing as many Republicans as possible.

My strong suspicion is no Democratic members of Congress would support such a plan. Why?

1. Because it would actually work. And, I hate to say this, I think they know it. It would completely remove the next school-shooting massacre from happening and, thus, deprive them of the ability to blame guns for the acts of depraved killers.
2. They will claim that having armed guards or off-duty police officers or retired cops and security screening would create an unacceptable climate for education. Yet, doesn’t this senseless terror do the same thing and worse?
3. Their real objective is to ban guns throughout the country, thus ensuring America turns into a real killing field.

What’s interesting about this proposal is that everyone knows it would work – even Democrats. It has worked every time it has been tried. No plan is foolproof. And, certainly, banning guns isn’t. The only difference is that every great genocide since the invention of firearms has been precipitated by the banning of guns, which prevents rational, self-governing, responsible, law-abiding people from defending themselves against criminals, terrorists and out-of-control totalitarian governments.

Do you know how many guns there are in the hands of American citizens? The estimate is 300 million. Can you imagine what would happen if the government actually tried to confiscate them?

And, of course, even Democrats don’t suggest banning guns in the hands of local, state and federal police forces.

Criminals and terrorists will always be willing and able to get guns – whether they are legal or illegal. The legality of firearms ensures only that law-abiding citizens are not defenseless.

What kind of sense would that make? And why isn’t that question asked by anyone at CNN, MSNBC, the New York Times or the Washington Post?

The answer to that question is because they are Democrats – irrational, unwilling to consider the consequences of their ideas, unwilling to measure the effectiveness of their own bankrupt ideology and unwilling to admit their political opponents really don’t like mass shootings either.

I know it boggles the mind. But, is there any other explanation for their position, their rhetoric and their reluctance to admit their ultimate goal – a total, universal gun-free America?

Need I remind you that every public school in America is already a so-called “gun-free zone”? How’s that working out for us?
