By now, you have surely heard about the senseless tragedy at Santa Fe High School. At least 10 people lost their lives, and plenty more were injured. You can guess how the left has responded. They call for bigger government and an all-out attack on freedom. They condemn anyone who has the gall to disagree with them as murderers, and they flat out refuse to participate in reasonable discourse.
You didn’t need any help anticipating all of this. But, when we zoom in, you can see that the predictability of left-wing media is hurting them. They make fools of themselves time and again, and today we’re going to see an obvious example of how it hurts their most passionate supporters.
You can really see the breakdown of predictable media by analyzing one, brief Twitter exchange. Cameron Kasky is among the Parkland student activists who has enjoyed a media tour assaulting the 2nd Amendment. Before any of the details of the Santa Fe shooting were released, he took to Twitter to criticize his enemies:
“At least 8 students have been shot and killed at Santa Fe High School. Prepare to watch the NRA boast about getting higher donations. Prepare to see students rise up and be called ‘civil terrorists’ and crisis actors. Prepare for the right-wing media to attack the survivors.”
In response to this ridiculous tweet, Kyle Kashuv, another Parkland survivor, had this to say, “At least 8 students have been shot and killed at Santa Fe High School. Prepare to watch the NRA get blamed for no reason. Prepare to see my classmates claim today as proof that we need gun control despite it being false. Prepare for the right-wing media to be called murderers.”
The two differing points of view represent the major sentiments splitting America. But, if we go to the scoreboard, we can see that one side understands these events and how they unfold. The other is hopelessly clueless.
Let’s look at Kasky’s tweet. He was right that at least 8 students were shot. As for the rest, it didn’t pan out quite as he expected. The NRA has done absolutely no boasting about donation numbers. The closest they have come is trying to rally membership, but that initiative dates back to April.
As for students being called terrorists and crisis actors, no member of mainstream media on either side has said such. They also never said it about the Parkland kids. But, more importantly, the survivors at Santa Fe High School haven’t jumped on any political bandwagons. They have been approached by gun grabbers from all over, but they have quietly declined to participate in the media circus. They have respectfully asked to be allowed to mourn and cope on their own terms.
And, as you might expect, none of them have been attacked by right-wing media. That didn’t even happen to the Parkland kids. The only “attacks” were when honest journalists fact checked the absurd claims these kids were making on national TV.
How does Kashuv’s tweet compare? For starters, the NRA has continued to be the punching bag of the left. Despite the NRA never shooting anyone, they are still blamed for every shooting in the nation. The Chicago Tribune wrote an entire article blaming the shooting on the “NRA’s culture of convenient excuses.”
The NY Post claimed that “it is time for the NRA to embrace some gun reforms” in an article that basically said opposition to gun control is why children get shot. The Washington Post was up to their usual antics when they advised readers to “Direct whatever anger or emotion you have towards the enemy. Which is the NRA.” Score one for Kashuv.
How about his second claim? Well, proof is abundant. The Parkland kids wasted no time using the tragedy as an excuse to stay in the spotlight. Aside from the tweet you have already read, several of them pushed the false claim that there have been 22 school shootings in 2018. The actual number is four. And these kids think they are attacked when their lies aren’t tolerated.
Lastly, he claimed that right-wing media would be called murderers. That has happened, but it extends further. Every conservative in the country is blamed for each shooting. Somehow, the left figures that we are pulling the trigger because we won’t establish a Gestapo movement in our country to disarm law-abiding citizens.
The final score is 4-0. A high school student can easily predict every move in the left’s playbook. Conversely, the left seems to have no realistic understanding of how guns work, why shootings happen or why the vast majority of Americans still defend their right to bear arms.

I’m giving more funds to the NRA.
Right now progressive/democrat means the same as socialist/communist. With that in mind; the so called democrats always want more gun control but they actually do not want gun restrictions that will work. Keep in mind their goal is confiscation not stopping any crime including these mass murderers. In order to discover just what would happen here in the United States of America, if the guns were confiscated, we need to study what happened in Europe and Asia during the 20th century.
The 20th century was the bloodiest century in mankind’s history. Somewhere between 170 million and 250 million people were murdered by their own government(s) after that/those government(s) first confiscated the guns. This number does not count those killed in any war.
It is a fact these mass murderers are in a way a plague on the nation. However, blaming the gun(s) will never reach a conclusion that works. There is no doubt it can only be a sickness that makes these people (both juvenile and adult) do these atrocious acts of indiscriminate killing. But in order for these so called democrats to ever reach their goal of confiscating guns it is necessary they continue. Consequently, any law they pass must not work or they could wind up short of confiscation. In such a case Obama’s promised fundamental transformation could never happen. Make no mistake that transformation included gun confiscation. Furthermore, to some degree Obama succeeded in fundamentally transforming America although he could not totally complete the transformation because of the guns. His actual goal was the destruction of America and he managed to come close. However, his effect has not yet been totally erased.
If any new law is to get to the bottom of the problem we must not blame the tool used but we must start blaming the person pulling the trigger. A problem that is never identified correctly can never be solved. When will we, as a nation, learn that lesson?
The media is under orders from their owners, one of which is George Soros, a confessed Nazi who worked with Hitler using kids to disarm the German people. That act resulted in the slaughter of over 6 million Jews. The media is also under orders to bash Trump 24/7. So, now that the readers know where this is coming from, they can troll the media to stop their lies and deceit. George Soros is using Hitler tactics that he is an expert on. This info needs to be tweeted all over the universe so the truth can be put out there.
Govenor Abbot ( the Texas Govenor) said that there were no signs of what this school shooter had in mind until he did the deed. It was unlike the Parkland Florida school shooting, which had multiple warnings, and yet nothing was done to prevent the shootings. From the things I have read about the Florida school shooting, Obama was trying to eliminate arrests of black kids in school, and had just awarded a monetary award to the school for cutting down on arrests in the school, and I believe this is why the officials were not paying attention to the multiple warnig signs that this shooter was giving out, he even went on youtube and announced that he wanted to be a school shooter and it was repotted to the FBI, and yet they did nothing. Plus the police were just outside the school and did nothing, they even had a resource officer at the Florida school at the very instant of the starting of the shootings and yet he did nothing, at least the police at the Texas school went in after the shooter at the Texas school, and there wasn’t a resource officer at the Texas school, the police had to be called, and even with the travel time it took the police to there, they kept the body count at 10 or below, I’m not saying that is acceptable, no killings are acceptable, but at least the Texas police entered the school when they got there, and didn’t cower behind their police cars or a brick wall. That’s exactly why I have a concealed weapon weapons permit, so that I don’t have to wait for the police to get to the scene. That’s why school teachers have got to be armed, for one thing if the perp knows that the teachers are armed, he probably will not even enter the school. I know there are some teachers that will not want to be armed, but they have to realize, they are targets also, because 3 of those victims in Florida were teachers and if you are facing a person with a gun, your best defense is to have a gun yourself.
