CNN Graphic Hypes Dem Senator Smear: GOP 'Doesn’t Give a S***’ About Gun Violence

It used to be called a "crime wave," and the focus was on the criminals responsible. But that would be too triggering, pardon the pun, for liberals. They want to shift the focus away from the criminals and onto the inanimate objects criminals are using—guns. And thus this morning, CNN's New Day devoted a segment to what it called a "gun violence epidemic." The term "gun violence" was referred to no fewer than eight times. Mention of "criminals?" Nada, naturally.

And what is it about Democrats and the liberal media that makes them like to use vulgarity in their public statements? Co-host John Berman read a tweet from Democrat Senator Chris Murphy of Connecticut claiming that Republicans don't give a "s---" about gun violence. The word was expurgated in the chyron, but not in Murphy's tweet or Berman's reading of it.

Get the rest of the story and view the video here.

Gee, I wonder why liberals would rather talk about the inanimate objects criminals are using to commit crimes than about the criminals themselves??

Well, in the sense that there is no such thing as a "violent gun", and therefore no such thing as "gun violence", the Senator is quite right.

They want us disarmed so they can do things to us that we would shoot them for.

[RatRipper]

But the Rat party loves violence and they breathlessly promote it in an attempt to implement gun control on America.

These days, Rat supporters look like the long line of thugs and criminals in Blazing Saddles signing up to terrorize Rock Ridge

This could just as easily and more accurately say

"Democrat Party doesn't give a S*** about gun violence against blacks."

Sure would be interesting to see a U.S. map color-coded by occurrence of "gun violence". I suppose it would be racist to point out the specific neighborhoods in Chicago with the highest per capita density of such events.

Until the Democrats are willing to admit WHERE the problem is, they will not properly address the remedy. And, oddly enough, a particular group where this violence predominates are the real victims here!!

[Sgt_Schultze]

Actually, the democrat party SUPPORTS “gun violence” by and against blacks

[governsleastgovernsbest]

Thank you!!

Oh, is it the GOP that’s running Chicago, Baltimore, Camden, etc.?

[rlmorel]

True. That statement is more accurate. I accept that correction.

[MrRelevant]

LOL... the phony outrage... this precisely what the left wants. The cut police funding, then trash the police consistently, encourage resistance all while changing laws that keep criminals OUT of jail. This is a carefully constructed plan.

Berman is loathsome.

[Richard Axtell]

Democrats and the leftist media lie about Gun Violence. They lie about the statistics, the perpetrators, and the causes. Perhaps that is why the policies they espouse lead to much, much, more of it.

This idiot apparently does not realize that the Republicans are out of power, for the most part, at least in the Federal Government. The Republicans may not be able to prevent the unconstitutional actions against the 2nd Amendment the anti American oligarchs are trying to force upon us.

They certainly do not give a S*** about the people’s constitutional rights, much less the rule of law. F*** them.

Perhaps a law saying Dems cannot own guns?
