As the summer of violence drags on, aided and abetted by Democrat mayors who have in some cases literally marched with and promised capitulation to the Marxist Black Lives Matter groups demanding that police be defunded, many of these mayors are now scrambling to assign blame for spiking violence in their cities. Naturally, they’re not looking at their own misguided policies, but at outside, unrelated factors. |

Put the blame where it belongs. It's not a gun problem. It's a problem with feral low life individuals that have no respect for anything including human life. Most of them already have criminal records and have gotten expert at gaming the judicial system. One program that would work at reducing crime would be to lock them up, but these democratic controlled city governments do not want to lock up their constituents.
Furthermore, the liberal judicial system abets the problem by its failure to provide adequate punishment.

These people are committing murder because someone "dissed" them, committing untold number of rapes, assaults, armed robberies, burglaries, and other property crimes.
These are not no harm, no foul crimes.
Too many times they get out on bail or probation and go right back to committing crimes. |

TO REMEMBER |
| No kingdom can be secured otherwise than by arming the people. The possession of arms is the distinction between a freeman and a slave. He, who has nothing, and who himself belongs to another, must be defended by him, whose property he is, and needs no arms. But he, who thinks he is his own master, and has what he can call his own, ought to have arms to defend himself, and what he possesses; else he lives precariously, and at discretion. — James Burgh, Political Disquisitions: Or, an Enquiry into Public Errors, Defects, and Abuses [London, 1774-1775]. |
