Democrats want gun control for civilians, defunded police, and wrist-slaps for criminals

Democrats want gun control for civilians, defunded police, and wrist-slaps for criminals
Gov. Kathy Hochul (D-NY) said that New York “will take every action possible to end this senseless cycle of gun violence,” in the aftermath of the shooting in Uvalde, Texas. Perhaps she can start by telling her own party it needs to try to keep criminals in jail.
The Democratic Party’s core problem when it comes to gun control is its refusal to enforce laws. Democrats want gun control policies that will restrict law-abiding citizens; meanwhile, many Democratic lawmakers and prosecutors go out of their way to make sure criminals get off easy for gun crimes and crimes that would prevent them from being able to legally own or purchase a firearm.
Woke district attorneys in Philadelphia and Los Angeles made it their goal to lessen prison time for criminals who used guns in their crimes. While campaigning, Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg promised the same, saying he wouldn't prosecute people for possession unless they committed a violent crime, a position he has begun walking back. The brothers in the Sacramento shooting both had a history of violent crimes and gang affiliations, but both were treated with kid's gloves by California's parole board and soft-on-crime attitude.
Add in those Democratic politicians that have actually moved to defund their cities' police departments and — well, what's a law-abiding person to do?

I'm not all defending what the cops did in Uvalde. They should have gone in there and saved lives. That's their jobs.
But, also, to play a devil's advocate and as a counterpoint...what does the public expect will happen after months and months of calls to defund the police? After months and months of soiling the names of the many men and women who truly believe in what they are doing and are good cops because of the actions of so few?
Two wrongs don't make a right but to be surprised that cops no longer want to put their lives on the line for people who "hate" them isn't really all that surprising. This is what the left has created.

Those idiots have been baiting us for years. They desperately want us to explode so they can declare martial law and finish their NWO agenda.
The elimination of the 2nd amendment may just be the final straw.

Democrats always seem to help criminals and punish law abiding citizens.

Yes. Just like they wanted “two weeks to stop the curve.”
It’s all bullshite designed (likely orchestrated) to remove your constitutional rights as citizens of the greatest country the world has ever known. To replace these divinely inspired freedoms with fear, dependence, and enslavement.
Reject God, there is no God they say. Trust in the government, and we will decide what you need they say.
I say. To deny Jesus Christ is to deny the very thing that makes us human. Reconcile that how you will.

Well they want to end qualified immunity.
That's what policing would look like.
Minimizing liability and lots fear in making decisions.

This is the dirty secret.
They want limited or no jail time for actual violent criminals charged with gun crimes, but they want to remove guns from law-abiding citizens.

That's just post-hoc rationalization.
The reality is, those cops didn't want to risk their lives BECAUSE they valued their own lives over the lives of children.
Let's not make excuses up for people who don't deserve it. Those cops wouldn't have put their lives on the line for people who loved them either - this was a red district as well.

They are wasting all their resources making sure angry parents don't upset groomers at School Board meetings.

I wasn’t aware that elementary school students were expressing their hatred for police
What a terrible take

Well yeah, it's not about gun control. It's about disarming those they disagree with politically.

Perfect recipe for Anarchy. I just don't know why they really want Anarchy when they are the ones in power. I guess they know that is transient.

That sets up nicely for roving gangs of antifa and BLM thugs.
Doesn't it?

Love this.
Amen.. Bottom line is they want gun control for White Republican's. Remember, they are the greatest threat to the Democracy.

Democrats are not serious about gun control because they don't enforce gun laws against criminals. Moreover, none of their proposals are responsive to the shootings that prompt them — for example, universal background checks could not have prevented a shooting by someone who passed a background check because of some Democratic prosecutor's refusal to pursue felony charges.
Meanwhile, they fight “mass incarceration” by making sure criminals avoid as much jail time as possible, even for crimes where guns are used.

These cops received 40% of the citys budget and here you are making excuses.

If Democrats really wanted gun control, why not do something about it the first 2 years of Obama’s first term?
