GUN CONTROL: THE CONTINUED PROGRESSIVE PACIFICATION AND PUSSIFICATION OF AMERICA  Posted: 16 Jun 2016 11:48 PM PDT Progressive pussification in education … is little or no doubt in my mind that American educational institutions have become little more than indoctrination centers for today’s youth. Instead of teaching the core values of Americanism and the life-skills needed to compete in a competitive environment, the progressives have dumbed down education to the point where functional illiterates are turned into the world. And, even worse, they have a mindset and worldview conditioned by female teachers who appear to want little boys to act like obedient little girls. Of course, if you are in the white middle class, any disruptive behavior may be officially noted and the offending youth is sent off to the psychologist for their ration of psychotropic drugs.  Has anyone noticed that quite a few of the mass murders tend to be white, middle class, young men who, having been prescribed psychotropic drugs, commit mass murder when they stop taking their prescribed medication. Since most minority communities are not as indulgent of their youth and do not have the financial wherewithal to sustain psychiatric care, you find few of these people – even though well armed – commit mass murder. South Carolina church shooter, Dylann Storm Roof, was on the benzodiazepine anti-anxiety drug Xanax and the pain killer Suboxone. Santa Barbara college shooter, Elliot Rodger, was on Xanax and the pain killer Vicodin. Aurora Colorado theater shooter, James Holmes, was taking the SSRI antidepressant Zoloft and the anti-anxiety drug Clonazepam. Columbine High School shooter Eric Harris had been on Luvox. Sandy Hook School shooter Adam Lanza had reported to have been on psychiatric drugs, but when a parents rights organization sued the state of Connecticut to release Lanza’s medical records, the request was denied “because ‘it would cause a lot of people to stop taking their medications’.” <Source> These are often the very events used by progressive socialist democrats to suggest that the law-abiding American public be disarmed rather than suggest that perhaps one of the causal factors along with criminality and terrorism is psychotropic drugs. And, that if any list needed to be created, perhaps it is one of psychotropic drug users. In what society, other than the fantasy world of the progressive socialist democrats, does making a finger gesture or drawing a picture of a gun require “official” intervention by scatterbrained – and perhaps well-meaning – school officials. Pussification in the media … If Firing An AR-15 Scares You, Maybe You’re A Sissy If you can’t fire a commonplace sporting rifle without feeling ‘irritable and jittery’ for hours afterwards, that’s a problem with you, not with the gun.     The horrific terrorist attack in Orlando has inspired a lot of commentary from the punditry, but the most outlandish thus far has to be Gersh Kuntzman’s personal account in the New York Daily News of handling and firing an AR-15 at a Philadelphia shooting range. Kuntzman wanted to shoot the rifle “to better understand the firepower of military-style assault weapons and, hopefully, explain their appeal to gun lovers.” This is actually a rather commendable exercise: instead of merely pontificating about a firearm, Kuntzman undertook to use one, test it out, and understand it. Yet Kuntzman did not find the experience to his liking: “mostly,” he writes, “I was just terrified.” What follows reads less like a journalistic exposé and more like a Civil War battlefield diary written by a terrified 17-year-old conscript. Firing the AR-15, Kuntzman writes, was “humbling and deafening”; the recoil “bruised [his] shoulder”; the shell casings “disoriented” him; the “smell of sulfur and destruction” made him “sick”; the “explosions” (which were “loud like a bomb”) gave him “a temporary form of PTSD.” For a long while after firing the gun, he was “anxious and irritable.” Firing the AR-15, he wrote, “felt…like a bazooka.”  In a follow-up column, Kuntzman reiterated: the “sheer power” of the AR-15 was “horrifying.” The noise produced by the gun was “deafening,” “anxiety provoking.” After firing the gun, he was “irritable and jittery.” The weapon “scared the crap out of [him],” and moreover, “It should scare the crap out of all of you, too.” Again he claims: “To me, [the AR-15] felt like a bazooka.” And he says his experience with the AR-15 “bruised [him], body and spirit.” Here is a counter-proposal: Gersh Kuntzman is a sissy.  Red more at: If Firing An AR-15 Scares You, Maybe You’re A Sissy Bottom line … It is a fact of life that you cannot control crazies, criminals, or terrorists with legislation that they do not respect nor follow. Everywhere you turn, the progressive socialist individuals are blaming collective society (“the system”) for the actions of individuals who should be held responsible for their own actions. Everywhere you turn, you see dangerous people being allowed to bargain away serious gun charges in return for a guaranteed conviction. Everywhere you turn, you see the progressives citing disproportionate numbers of minorities in prison, yet suspend believe that a large number of prosecutors, judges, and juries must be bigots to achieve that result. Commonsense suggest that if any gun control beyond the draconian and ineffective gun control found in the progressive socialist democrat-governed inner cities, it is the suspension of plea bargains involving gun charges. It is about time that the progressive stop weakening America with their program of pacification and pussification. -- steve
