“... well, for sure I’ll be called all sorts of bad names for having the gall to even suggest such a thing, but a little honesty is always to be appreciated I think, given the whoreson insincerity currently holding sway... and so let’s be honest... if the New York Times were a pro gun rights advocate and a significant, overwhelming amount of the gun violence plaguing the nation were being perpetrated by crime addled good ol’ boys south of the Mason Dixon, who doubts that the running commentary spooled daily from the Grey Lady would be America doesn’t have a gun problem, America has a good ol’ boys problem?... I’d like to think that an honest person wouldn’t call that crazy talk because, let’s face it, all the blather we endure these days really isn’t about gun control is it, it’s really about controlling opinions and inconvenient points of view, it’s about a political agenda... it’s my guess that you could grant liberals their fond wishes, get rid of the second amendment, make all guns not being carried by bodyguards protecting the elite illegal, and you’d see little or no drop in violent crime in America outside the norm... hell, you might even see an increase... and I’m wondering, if such happened, if you consigned the right to bear to the dustbin of history and it accomplished nothing aside from making Piers Morgan and his blithering idiot ilk happy, I’m wondering what are the odds the lefty rabble of talking heads would admit their error and re-embrace the wisdom of the founding fathers?... oh, how we laugh with such sadness... I do at least hope then they will be consistent in their thinking and move on to the banning of alcohol because I’m not sure but it must be true that many, many more innocent lives are swept away by drunk drivers each year than are by faux assault rifles in the hands of lunatics...”
