No, more like the personal bodyguards that the left surround themselves with while demanding that ordinary citizens go unarmed and uprotected

I agree we shoukd do it ourselves, but the point is about the lefts hypocrisy- they are well protected with personal bodyguards who are heavily armed. Throw that I their faces and demand that if they insist citizens be unarmed, then they need to supply every citizen with personal bodyguards who are heavily armed. Of course they Wil, balk at that because of the price invovled in sucn an impossible task, but that is the point- showing their hypocrisy

At the end of the day, the right to self defense is inalienable, God given, not govenrment granted, and since the gove rent can not p,ay God by providing us the right to personal bodyguards then they have no business telling us that we can’t defend ourselves, because God grants us that right.

Every person who voted for this bill must be exterminated. They are American enemies more dangerous that any North Korean or Russian

Here is what the legislation says in its most convoluted manner:

“(aa) Secure Storage Or Safety Device Requirement For Grandfathered Semiautomatic Assault Weapons.
—It shall be unlawful for any person, other than a licensed importer, licensed manufacturer, or licensed dealer, to store or keep under the dominion or control of that person any grandfathered semiautomatic assault weapon that the person knows, or has reasonable cause to believe, will be accessible to an individual prohibited from receiving or possessing a firearm under subsection (g), (n), or (x), or any provision of State law, unless the grandfathered semiautomatic assault weapon is—

“(1) carried on the person, or within such close proximity that the person can readily retrieve and use the grandfathered semiautomatic assault weapon as if the grandfathered semiautomatic assault weapon were carried on the person; or

“(2) locked by a secure gun storage or safety device that the prohibited individual has no ability to access.”.

You are correct that these “mass shootings” occur in gun-free zones. Additionally, and typically, after a “practice drill for live shooters” where the FBI has a hand in the planning. Not a single one of these events has held up to any scrutiny with the original Official Narrative portrayed in the Media: single shooter, young white male, known to the authorities, no visible means of support for the purchase of all those expensive guns and all that ammo. The actual practice events were portrayed in the Media to the Public as real, while everyone on the scene was told this was practice, play your part, so standing down wasn’t even in play. Not everyone gets the Memo, however.

To: Sioux-san; All
I was looking into pharma’s intention to incorporate hallucinogenics in treating certain neuorological dysfunctions when I came across this and thought folks here might find it interesting and maybe even applicable to the recent action taken against our Constitution.

https://web.archive.org/web/20150317074452/http://www.psychintegrity.org/isepp_statement_on_the_connection_between_psychotropic_drugs_and_mass_murder.php

I’m including some of the content because one never knows when a complaint might be made to the archivists and the content gets flushed.

INTERNATIONAL SOCIETY FOR ETHICAL PSYCHOLOGY AND PSYCHIATRY

Statement on the Connection Between Psychotropic Drugs and Mass Murder

The Board of Directors and membership of the International Society For Ethical Psychology and Psychiatry send condolences to the people of Newtown, Connecticut on their horrific losses. Our hearts go out to the parents of the children who were killed and to the families and friends of the adults who were killed.

We are calling for an inquiry into the connection between these acts of mass murder and the use of psychotropic drugs. Although the media have cited family members and acquaintances saying Adam Lanza was taking prescription drugs to treat “a neurological-development disorder”, we do not know if he was on psychotropic drugs. But we do know that James Holmes, the Colorado batman shooter, had taken 100 milligrams of Vicodin immediately before he shot up the movie theatre (1).

And we do know that:

Christopher Pittman was on antidepressants when he killed his grandparents (2). Eric Harris, one of the gunmen in the Columbine school shooting, was taking Luvox and Dylan Klebold, his partner, had taken Zoloft and Paxil (3). Doug Williams, who killed five and wounded nine of his fellow Lockheed Martin employees, was on Zoloft and Celexa (4). Michael McDermott was on three antidepressants when he fired off 37 rounds and killed seven of his fellow employees in the Massachusetts Wakefield massacre (5). Kip Kinkel was on Prozac when he killed his parents and then killed 2 children and wounded 25 at a nearby school (6).

In fourteen recent school shoots, the acts were committed by persons taking or withdrawing from psychiatric drugs, resulting in over 100 wounded and 58 killed (7). In other school shootings, information about the shooter’s prescription drug use and other medical history were kept from public records (7).

This connection between psychotropic drugs and mass murder is not coincidental. There is enough evidence that antidepressants cause increased risk of suicide and violence for the U.S. Food and Drug Administration and its Canadian counterpart to require that drug companies include a “black box” warning to that effect on their packages. Our first knowledge of this association between psychotropic drugs and violence came from studies completed in the early 1950s, (8). This was supported by research completed on antidepressants in the mid-1970s, (9). More recent studies have corroborated this association between antidepressants and homicide/suicide, (10, 17). Antidepressants, specifically Paxil, appear to more than double the risk of hostility events in adult and pediatric placebo-controlled trials (11).

There is more in that ISEPP statement and I hope you make the effort to get to it but what’s laid out above is all I need to build the point being developed.

It caused me great wonderment as to why a real and documented cause of mass violence is ignored year after year and incident after incident

No, it didn't. It was the political/pharma conspiracy put together by those we won't mention.

More than two-thirds of Congress cashed a pharma campaign check in 2020, new STAT analysis shows

If you’re planning to complain to your elected representative feel free to use any of this information in your argument.

This guy was in congress representing the district I used to lived in. The same district Fitzpatrick operates out of now.

But that’s not why this is in there. This is because of what happened with Obamacare and they know this law would be shot down and they will take any part of it they can.
