Democrats.
If I had the time, I would build a timeline chart. Going from memory, we had a long list of mass shootings during Obama. They significantly reduced under Trump. And now they are ramping back up under Biden.
Put the gun violence in the news, daily. Create gun control executive orders. Work their way toward disarmament. Citizens become subjects. Democrats hold all the power to elevate themselves.

When are you going to change your angry face? You must be in a good mood sometimes.

My vote is the media. When the media starts squawking about gun violence then all of the democrat supporters start dancing around like puppets on strings. I think Hollywood is just an extension of democrat supporters with a larger platform.

China is behind most of this.
we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places.

I was thinking the same thing. It’s convenient every time there is a push for gun control mass shootings seem to come out of nowhere.

I was watching the TV show "Blue Bloods" last night. Two of the cops stop a car and then yell "GUN" because there is a handgun lying in the back seat. Out come the police officer's handguns, they arrest the two people in the car, yak yak. Remember the good old days when you could drive around with a longarm in a gun rack in the rear window of your pick up and no one had a nervous breakdown? I was hoping the new Administration might not be a disaster but it seems everything is full speed ahead on turning us into a completed regulated, unfree country. Being unfree is a one way proposition. If you are free, you can always throw away your freedom but once you aren't free any more- that's it, you'll seldom regain the freedom.
This is exactly why the founding fathers set us up as a republic with a lot of checks and balances- so the daily passions of the crowd don't rule society. It is getting to the point that if you support the Constitution you are a "problem". When I was a kid we used to laugh about "South American" politics, a government running this way, then that way, ruled by the mob. We need some brakes on the government.
A word about Communism. A lot of folks can't figure out why some billionaires or news casters making $150 million a year support socialism. READ the communist manifesto. It is a short pamphlet- takes a half hour. Toward the end Marx says a "handful" of people will have to run the society so it is hands off FOR THEM. Marx starts out says the Kings were GREAT- they evened out everything but then the trades people formed guilds and were able to create a middle class. Communism isn't a system against the rich, it is a system against YOU. The middle class that works for a living.

Democrats/Hollywood ... isn't that the same thing? Hollywood types cheer for the Dems, and vote for them. But the Dem politicians are the ones that attempt to push legislation. And are sometimes successful.

The laws are passed and heralded in the press but the exceptions are never mentioned. Like insider trading and congress plus high level gov. employees, like say colonels and above. It's about control of the masses.

AND ONE MORE THING....just a thought. Back in the 1970's there was a effort to do away with local law enforcement and bring in a national police. Believe or not, the Nixon Administration even supported this Those who run the world are incredibly patient people. This "defund the police, mass shootings, etc. etc." Be very careful that it doesn't go a in direction where all the local police are portrayed as untrained bigots and the answer is a national police force. These extremely liberal (using the term loosely) even argued that the Second Amendment only related to the National Guard (which is amazing since it was set up in 1903 not 1776) and that therefore local police really didn't have any right to be carrying weapons.

I think y’all are over complicating it. Criminals and crazies are the ones that do bad things. Currently the left with aid from the media are politicizing the bad things the crazies and criminals do. If the left is successful in disarmament of the population, and we no longer have the means to defend ourselves from tyranny, Washington can have their way with taxpayers.
