The Flaccid Left

Point 1 - look at list of mass murderers, and you are looking at a list of mentally ill people. Why pretend otherwise?  It should be self evident - shooting kids is probably the easiest definition of mental illness - so what can be done within the bounds of civil liberties do about this? How can these mentally ill people be stopped from getting guns?
Point 2 - don't look to media for anything other than entertainment or entertain-rage.
Point 3 - it apparently generates ratings to blame the NRA and the GOP. There's an assumption that these groups stop "common sense gun control" or whatever else it is that many believe would have been or would be done that would stop this kind of gun violence.
Point 4 - Democrats had all the power they needed in 2008 to do anything the Constitution would allow to stop gun violence, criminalize types of guns, raise the legal age for gun purchases, beef up the background check system or make the DoD comply with the laws regarding service personnel who are discharged with felony level convictions from the UCMJ. They did nothing. That is most likely because they lost their shirts when they did it before and decided they would rather not do anything difficult about guns again.
Summary: the left is as pathetic as all the politicians.
