Psychobabble from Time Magazine

[SHMIV]

The piece is entitled "This May Be Why Some Of Us Have Given Up On Gun Control".

The author, reflecting on todays incident in Berdoo, gives an essay on "Compassion Fatigue".

Best I can tell, according to her, we have seen too many tragic events, have run clean out of compassion, and so now we all want guns.

I find psychology to be fascinating, but stuff like this is why I never pursued it.

It's much easier to blame the gun than to admit that there are evil people in this world that are driven by hate and extreme religious ideology. If they don't have a gun, they'll use a hammer, or a knife, or a hijacked commercial airliner to satisfy their bloodlust. So we continue with the pointless exercise of restricting freedoms from the people that didn't commit any crimes.

I wonder if the howls from the media ghouls will go away if the suspects in San Bernardino turn out to be of Middle Eastern descent, as some have hinted to?

Seems to me there is a lot of compassion but much like the Libs there doesn't seem to be a clear solution to the problem.

I don't believe there is a gun owner that rests when they read stories like this or watch the news for a week solid with this being reported and updated daily.

But I as many don't have an answer either. Sometimes there are situations that will never be resolved and we just hope they will subside before they reach ourselves.

I don't believe anyone no matter how smart can write rules to protect against actions of the future although the Dems seem to keep thinking they can.

No compassion? Do they not have eyes to see? There may not be grand gestures of compassion like they would want but there's plenty of compassion, I see it every day. Someone holding a door for another, a child playing with others, a random person giving a bum a buck, or as simple as one letting another turn first in a car. Yes there is compassion but not from the fools at Times Magazine.

Then there is this.

Didn't this attack occur in the very type of location that TMac just banned guns? Effin' brilliant.

A man, that just happened to be of the Muslim faith, stages a well planned attack, with a wife that he found in Saudi Arabia. They used body armor, had multiple firearms, possessed explosives...

But, they are not sure that this is a terror attack. Horses#!t.

Note that he was well liked and pleasant. Everyone was surprised that he was capable of this. Sorry if anyone is offended, but I find it foolish, at this point, to not be suspicious of any Muslim.

And Democrat politicians are blaming the NRA....

So the media jumped to their predictable assumption that the shooters were white, conservative, tea party, NRA members again? Yeah, didn't see that one coming.

But now there's this?



It's time to blame the gun.

I've always called the Medical Mental world an "Art", there really isn't much science other than chemicals, and they cannot nail those 100%.
