Okay, here is the long expected post on the school shooting in Minnesota. I’m sure the anti-gunners here have been expecting it, so that they can jump on it like coyotes on my sister’s cat.
Jeff Weise is our spotlight character in this story. 16 year old kid on an indian reservation. And a neo-nazi sympathist.
Yesterday’s rampage by Jeff Weise - the worst US school shooting since the 15-death Columbine massacre in 1999 - appeared to have been planned, investigators said. The spree left seven wounded, five of whom were still being treated in hospitals.
…
Tabman said Weise first went to the home of his grandfather Daryl Lussier, a sergeant with the Red Lake police department, where he shot him and a woman who was his companion.
He then stole his grandfather’s bullet-proof vest and drove to Red Lake High School where he overpowered, shot and killed an unarmed security guard, 28-year-old Derrick Brun, at an entrance equipped with a metal detector, Tabman added.
Walking down a hallway, Weise “saw a teacher and some students,” fired at them and chased them into a room where he killed the 52-year-old teacher, Neva Rogers, and five students, and wounded the others, Tabman said. (more…)
So first off, lets not hear any B.S. about how guns should belong to police and military only. Because if that was the case, this STILL would have have happened. His grandfather was a police officer. He killed his own kin, took guns and a bullet proof vest, and headed to school.
Secondly, this is a very good illustration why metal detectors are a complete friggin joke. But the left won’t understand that. Common sense could tell you that a metal detector woulden’t help in a situation like this. Even after it just got proved to be pointless, the left will still want more of them in our schools. A waste of your money.
According to the sources, this kid was often the subject of ridicule at school. A “goth” and obsessed with violence, a nazi, a videogame kid, etc. And everyone is blaming these things. But it would only seem like these to the simple minded. The reality is this. A generally sick and twisted kid. He was born to lose.
There are millions of “goth” kids who listen to the same music that Jeff Weise did, own guns of their own, play violent video games, and have never went on shooting sprees. Guns are not to blame. That is obvious. Even the court house shooting was done with a police(grandma’s) gun. The only lesson an educated person, with a working mind, would learn from these lessons, is that guns in the right hands can save lives. (officer grandma not being one of them)
This is why I carry. And I believe that anyone who can trust themselves to act accordingly in an emergency situation SHOULD carry. I look at it as a duty. Think of the lives that could have been saved, if teachers carried. Instead no. The teacher was running away from a 16 year old kid. The teacher was cowering in a corner at the moment of her death. An adult is charged to protect our children. How was she protecting the children then? It saddens me that so few people understand this concept.
Police obviously can’t be trusted to protect all of us, all the time. They are there to clean up the mess and do the paperwork. If you don’t believe that, then you are blinded by ignorance.
A teacher at the columbine shooting actually had a gun in his car. The only thing is, he wasn’t allowed to park his vehicle in the “gun-free-zone-that-wasn’t-exactly-gun-free” on that fateful morning. So while he’s sprinting down the street to get his “peace tool”, people are being killed behind him. Had he been carrying, he could have cut the casualty list probably more than in half. But the fool leftists will never buy that. They are partisan to what they want to believe, no matter how much fact/proof you shove in their pompous faces. All their decisions are based on pure emotions, and not common sense.
So anyways, I’m predicting the left is gonna blame guns and demand more gun control. Same old story with them.
The obvious fact in this story, is that no amount of gun control would have stopped what happened in Minnesota… or Colombine. 12 gun control laws were broken in the columbine incident. And stealing is the main one in Minnesota. Point being that laws are laws, and can easily be broken. Even easier if the culprit doesn’t plan on living after the event. Nothing to lose. Laws only affect the law abiding citizen. Which means, more laws hurts the good guys. So let us focus on enforcing the ones we have, instead of making up new B.S. laws for criminals to break.
The root of Jeff’s problem goes much deeper. The kid was just sick. Plain and simple. It’s not society’s fault. He was raised without regard for human life. He started his journey down a dark road at a much earlier age. He bought the lies that satan told him, that this was the right path to take. And now he will pay for it for eternity. These are the things I believe.
Speaking of end times, Jesus said
“Brother will betray brother to death, and a father his child. Children will rebel against their parents and have them put to death. All men will hate you because of me, but he who stands firm to the end will be saved.” Mark 13:12-13
Let us always do our best to prevent events like this in the future. But let us also trust God and His plan for us.
