Charles Grodin On Gun Control
Mr Grodin appeared on the Mike Huckabee Show today, and the first thing out of his mouth, is “I think we need to make it difficult for people to buy guns” he goes on to say “they release people out of a mental hospital and can buy a gun,….people get out of prison and they do not know where they are”.
Well Mr Grodin, it would seem that once again, knee jerking, anti 2nd amendment reactionaries are once again going to infringe upon the rights of the hard working, law abiding citizen. Every time gun laws are enacted, crime rates do not change very much. Criminals, and those who will endeavor to make money off of arms trafficking, will continue to do so.
It is the anniversary this week, of Columbine. Mr Grodin was asked if the boys had lived, what would be the proper adjudication. He goes on to say that, they were mentally ill, and that would be the place to start. Lets put them in a mental hospital, give them a nice room, and draw pretty pictures. This is a pretty delusional point of view. Columbine was a premeditated, well thought out, well planned attack, just as 9/11 was.
Further, Mr Grodin, is pushing NY State AG to push the Supreme Court to rule on why the Felony Murder Rule, which states that any person that partakes in certain felony crimes to include, Murder, Rape, Kidnapping, Burglary or Robbery, that results in death, weather intended or unintended during the commissioning of the crime, can be held culpable for the death and thus be sentenced up to life without parole.
….early on the morning of March 10, 2003, a hung over 20-year-old named Ryan Holle lent his car to his roommate, who then went out with others and committed a robbery and murder. At the time of the crime Ryan Holle was asleep in his bed. He is serving a life sentence without the possibility of parole at the Wakulla Correctional Institution near Tallahassee, Fla. The prosecutor explained to the jury in 2004 “No car, no crime.” Mr. Holle had no criminal record. He had lent his car to his roommate countless times before….
Though I do not agree with the sentencing in this case, just think of all the cases where people knowingly assisted in a crime where death or rape resulted. I am sorry, but if you are there participating, you are just as guilty.
Many of these liberals will say this is a gross miscarriage of justice. I beg to differ, but if that is the case then the prison guards at the concentration camps are absolved. What is the difference? They were there but did not actually participate. Or the guards at prison camps where American servicemen in WWII, Korea, or Vietnam were treated brutally, cannot be held culpable because they did not actually partake in a crime against these American Service Members.
Where does the insanity stop? I hope we take logical steps instead of making liberal knee jerk reactions.
Developing…3 Officers Shot Dead in Pittsburgh, PA
Prayers for the police officers, their family and friends and the citizens of Pittsburgh, PA.
A 23 yr. old male, who was reportedly dishonorably discharged from the marines, while in boot-camp, and also expelled from North Catholic HS killed 3 cops and injured 2 others after police responded to a domestic disturbance call. He was apparently out drinking the night before and this may have lead to the initial phone call when policed busted into his home. We recently learned that he was also laid off from his job – which I believe to be one of the biggest reasons we will see violent and disturbing behavior in the coming months or at least until the economic situations stabilizes and subsides.
Here is whatt came over the wires:
Confirmed by local pgh media, three Pittsburgh police officers killed.
Per Andy Shehan, kdka, two officers killed in house; then perp went to second story window. Cars on street ‘riddled with bullets.’ Fire fight to try and re-enter Poplawski house to retrieve injured officers.
Per Andy Shehan,
The set up a perimeter around the house; city pd; city swat; Allegheny county sheriff; pa state police; all commanded to fire on second story at once so officers could get into house to get officers; rescue of officers under a hail of gunfire. One officer already dead when they got to him; huge gun battle to get injured officers out.
Jon Burnett, kd weather man ‘knows’ guns, he is in on the interview w/Shehan (at the scene). Poplawski’s range was approximately three football fields with guns he had…officers did not stand a chance; Poplawski was out drinking the night before…conjection on Shehan’s part, saying that that is what may have caused the initial domestic fight in house. And then it escalated. Two units responded to initial ‘domestic’ situation.
Per Chief Harper, Officers had responded to that address at least twice before. They are investigating the records and the calls.
Story still developing… And there have been reports that this was politically motivated but I will wait until further reports are made and after the media projects and spins this the way they want and the true facts and details begin to rise to the surface.
I’m sure this will turn into more anti-gun legislation measures 3…2…1…
