Like the recent stabbing by Dylan Quick of students at Lone Star College in Texas last week, the horrible terrorist-style explosions in Boston yesterday and the resulting carnage serve as stark evidence that what I have been saying for several weeks is true: gun violence is not the problem; violence in general is the problem. Quick also appears to be a nut case, having dreams about stabbing a lot of victims for several days before the attack occurred.
It certainly appears to me that this Boston attack was a terrorist attack, but it is unclear as to whether it was a domestic attack or foreign terrorism. In either event, I think I can safely say that the perpetrator(s) were also nut cases to some degree.
Obviously, no form of gun control would have prevented the Boston event just as no form of gun control would have prevented the Texas stabbings. Where the possession of explosives without a license is illegal, so is the possession of a knife with the intent to do bodily harm. The fact that these individuals acted anyway underscores my argument: we need to be addressing the causes of the violence and taking steps to remove or mitigate those causes.
These concerted and unconstitutional efforts at "gun control" are an outright sham.
That's MY AMERICAN OPINION, respectfully submitted.
