Observations made from watching the "March For Our Lives" in Washington:

A youth interviewed and asked "what do you want done?"  Youth answers with two requests NONE of which attack the real root causes of gun violence, it was just MORE gun control:

#1 - "Raise the age to purchase a firearm to 21 years old".  My question to him is how does the age limit apply to some 16 year old gang banger using the "community gun" to kill another dope dealer who enters his "hood"?  How does it stop some punk thug teenager from breaking into a gun shop or home to steal firearms for violence?

#2 - "Ban "assault" (I guess those are the military "looking" rifles.) weapons."  My question is do you know what a real assault rifle is?  Do you realize that an "assault" rifle is a semi-automatic rifle like many "traditional" hunting and target rifles?

I saw plenty of signs being carried blaming the NRA for murder, but no signs with the names of those who ACTUALLY committed the murders.  So the NRA who killed nobody is demonized on the signs they carry, but the killers are NOT demonized?

It is so sad that these young people who want to be the leaders of tomorrow are unable or unwilling to understand the root causes of gun violence.  More of their generation is being killed by illegal drugs, but they do not protest tor a real war on drugs and carry signs blaming dope dealers for killing so many youth.  so dope is OK, but guns are bad?

More “Gun Control” is best explained with the true statement that “Insanity Is Doing the Same Thing Over and Over Again and Expecting Different Results”.
