Exploiting the Blood of Innocents

It seemed like just minutes after the announcement of the death of thirteen people in a movie theater in Colorado Spring’s, the extreme liberals in the Democratic party pointed the finger of blame at the Tea Party. Reaching a new level of stupidity their out cries for more gun control echoed over the media news waves while ignoring the real culprit in increased violence.

Let me poise the following questions to the reader. When is the last time you’ve heard criticism over the violence and depravity that comes from liberal Hollywood?

Just how many movies must someone under twenty one have to watch, where human beings are butchered , slaughtered and debased, before it affects their psyche?

What should we make of the video game industry that produces video games where young children, many starting at a very young age, are involved in competition to destroy characters on a video screen? Image’s of living things, both human and animal, are obliterated in a sea of blood with no thought given that ‘something’ was destroyed. How many video games are out there that depict ‘real persons’ in a combat setting where the taking of a human life is but a click away.

Now liberals will cry that to ban the works of Hollywood is an infringement of their rights of self expression; their 1st Amendment rights. And they will accuse the parents of allowing their young children to be exposed to this entertainment (?). It’s parents fault and you know what? They’re right.

The same applies to gun ownership and our 2nd Amendment rights. You see, it’s not the guns or the NRA or the Tea Party; it’s the individual. And when we damage the psyche of the young, by making them immune to death through movies and video games, we create a Colorado Springs. An ‘individual’, playing out the role of the Dark Knight, is the work of today’s society presented on the Big Screen.

The mission of the Tea Party can best be summed up as to uncover, expose and defeat those who have abandoned our Constitution. They are comprised of all people who support the Constitution!

Turning a massacre into political fodder is a clear sign of desperation on the part of the liberal left and they are hoping you will buy into this stupidity. I know you are smarter than that.
