OPED: A view from the curb
I’m not really sure if the Gun
Grabbers will ever understand
that no matter how hard they
try, or how many words you
write on a piece of paper,
or how many protests and
parades of fools you have,
crime, be it with a gun, a
knife, a bomb or a computer,
criminals will be criminals.
Nothing will change until
humanity changes.
We already have laws that
prevent the sales of guns
to felons and convicted,
and other people that the
government and our law

makers have decided to not
be allowed to own a fire arm.
It’s also a law that if caught
with a firearm, they will be
charged and convicted for
that offense, too. But for some
unknown reason, these bad
guys keep getting guns and
committing more crimes.
I don’t think that adding
more laws to the books is the
answer. I say this because
the cities with the most strict
guns laws statistically have
the highest gun violence. It
seems when the bad guys
know that the people can’t
defend themselves that it’s

easy pickings (that’s kind of
like being a bully, so we should
write some laws against
bullying). So it’s my take that
you can’t fix the problem with
more legislation.
Laws only apply to law
abiding people. It’s illegal to
drink and drive, yet people
do it every day and people
die every day because of it! In
2015, the number killed by
drunk driving and the number
killed by gun related homicide
were very close to the same,
yet I don’t recall the left calling
for more legislation every
time there is a car wreck. The
car didn’t kill anyone, just
like the gun can’t kill without
someone pulling the trigger. It
seems like we have a people
problem. Both of these areas,
guns and vehicles, are highly
regulated and legislated. I
don’t think piling some more
feel good, waste of time law
is going to do anything to
help prevent crime from
happening.
Do I have an answer to how
we can fix this? No. Sadly
enough, I don’t think things
will ever change or get any
better. As a matter of fact, I
believe things will only get
worse from here forward.
We can’t rely on the laws to
keep us safe anymore and I
personally have no reason to
believe the police are going
to be any help (I’ll cover my
reasoning in a later article).
The government has become
so corrupt that they will be
no help and the Gun Grabbers
just keep thinking that taking
all the guns away is the best
idea. Tell me, how do we
defend ourselves from the
criminals and others that
mean to do us harm?
Tulsa has become a hot bed
of violence and crime, and it
seems to be steam rolling to
another record year! What
are you going to do when
someone car jacks you or robs
you or you have to deal with a
home invasion? Call the cops?
How about you inform the
perp that
