One of the frauds attempted during the Democrat Convention is that Democrats want to reduce gun violence in America. While I’m sure most Democrats consider themselves anti-violence, the party they support is the party of violence. Democrat politicians and leaders, excuse, encourage, and use violence, successfully, to advance its political objectives.
While the sympathy displayed for the victims of gun violence and their families may have been sincere, the Democrat Party leadership willingly sacrifices people in their quest for power. Democrat Party policies make America more violent, make law-abiding Americans more vulnerable to criminals and terrorists, and use violence to get support for, or at least acceptance of, their policies.
Democrats are soft on criminals although almost all homicides are committed by people with criminal histories. Most of America’s violence occurs in cities completely controlled by Democrats (Mayor, City Councils, Police Chief, Judges, Prosecutors, etc.). Often criminals are released on minimal bail before trial and felons are released early from prison, despite high recidivism rates, to prey on innocent Americans. Violent criminals, especially youths, are allowed to plea bargain to lessor crimes and escape appropriately long prison sentences.
Democrat passed laws enable huge numbers of immigrants to come from nations that are more violent than America, and most illegal immigrants that cross our border with Mexico come from much more violent nations than ours; unfortunately many immigrants bring their violent customs with them.
Democrats bring refugees who are not vetted to exclude terrorists or criminals from violent countries and countries which are hotbeds of terrorism.
Democrat “Common Sense” gun laws will do nothing to prevent the people who commit almost all gun homicides, people with criminal histories who already cannot legally possess guns, from getting guns. What Democrat gun laws do is make it more difficult (because permits are delayed, refused, or very expensive) for law abiding people, especially in cities with high crime rates, to defend themselves.
The Democrat Party is the party of slavery, Jim Crow laws, the KKK, Segregation, opposition to freedom for and citizenship for former slaves, Occupy Wall Street, the Black Panthers, the Ferguson and Baltimore and other riots, harassment of peaceful political gathering by people they oppose, Black Lives Matter (based on a lie) despite its calls for killing police, etc., etc., etc.
Democrat leaders use groups like those to intimidate or compel people into supporting or acquiescing to Democrat policies and officials. Democrat leaders lust for power over others and the benefits that power provides to them. To gain that power, Democrat leaders are willing to sacrifice anyone.
