BREAKING: AG Barr’s New Form Of “Gun Control” To STOP Mass Shootings 

BREAKING: AG Barr’s New Form Of “Gun Control” To STOP Mass Shootings

Democrats want gun control but now they have this…

AG Bill Barr has just proposed a novel approach to helping to prevent mass shootings, “criminal control.” Instead of taking guns away from innocent people Barr would rather put mass shooters to death in an expedited manner.

This approach would seem to be much more effective than Democrat’s gun control push. After all criminals do not follow the law.

Here’s how it would work, via Reuters:

“U.S. Attorney General William Barr has drafted legislation that would speed the death penalty for people who have committed mass murder, a White House official said on Monday.

Marc Short, chief of staff to Vice President Mike Pence, told reporters on Air Force 2 that the measure would be part of a package of gun legislation that the White House intends to propose to Congress.

Pence, who is traveling in Europe, had been in contact with Barr about the issue, Short said.

The White House has been working on measures to address gun violence after several recent mass shootings. President Donald Trump has voiced support for tackling mental health issues related to the violence while also looking at expanded background checks, an issue on which he has wavered.

Attorney General Bill Barr said this week that the Trump administration will push for legislation fast-tracking the death penalty for those convicted in cases concerning mass shootings or the killing of police officers. https://t.co/bIJjx7qH9U

— Axios (@axios) August 17, 2019

Leading Democrats have pushed Republicans in the U.S. Senate to take up legislation already passed by the House of Representatives addressing the issue. Lawmakers are expected to look at the legislative options more closely when they return to Washington from their August recess.”

This seems much more sensible than taking guns away. Especially given the misconceptions many have about mass shootings.

The Democrats and the media would have you believe that the country is in the middle of an epidemic of mass shootings led by white supremacists.

Democrats and the media would also have you believe that the only possible way to stop this epidemic is to immediately suspend the Second Amendment and confiscate all semi-automatic weapons.

Nothing could be further from the truth.

While the three mass shootings that have occurred over the past several weeks are indeed horrific and tragic, they do not represent an “epidemic” of mass shootings.

In fact mass shootings that affect innocent and random people are exceedingly rare in our nation of almost four hundred million people.

Consider these facts about mass shootings via American Greatness:

Fact: There were 387 deaths from mass shootings in the United States in 2018 (defined as four or more shot—not necessarily killed—at one time). Of those, most were regular criminals as we expect to see in gang-related drive-bys, bar fights, and a strangely large number of shootings at parties (like this one). About 100 deaths were the result of the random, psycho-killer shootings that dominated news coverage for days and weeks at a time. Mercifully, those are quite rare. But that’s not the impression we are given by the news coverage.

Fact: There are more privately owned guns in the United States than ever before and the number of murders has been declining for decades and has been at or near a multigenerational low for several years. More guns, less crime.

Fact: There were 660 murders in Chicago in 2017. That’s nearly twice the number from mass shootings in the whole country and six or seven times the number murdered by random psychos mass-shooters. Chicago has some of the strictest gun control in the country. Maybe it’s not the guns.

Fact: There are between 1.2 million and 1.5 million defensive uses of guns per year in the United States. How many more murders, rapes, thefts, and assaults would there be without armed citizens?

Fact: There were more than 70,000 opioid deaths last year. That’s 4.5 times the total number of murders and 700 times the number of people killed by psycho mass-shooters. Yet, liberals want to enact far-reaching gun control laws and prevent Americans from defending themselves.

One hundred random deaths of innocent bystanders by mass shooters is by any measure a horrific loss of life, and devastation to countless families.

Yet in a country of 400 million people, it is hardly a crisis that requires millions of innocent gun owners, who have never committed any crime, to lose their rights.

Democrats famously refuse to let any crisis go to waste, but calmer heads must prevail during a time of high emotion.

If any additional laws are needed to prevent mass shootings are needed they should be carefully deliberated in a slow and methodical process using facts, not hyperbole and emotional appeals.

That said I personally cannot imagine any law that would deter a criminal bent on causing harm. The only thing that can stop a person like that is a good guy with a gun.

    Excellent Idea! . . . It’s about TIME to stop the criminal from getting a “free ride” and instead on preventing would be mass shooters from carrying out their murderous rampages by THINKING TWICE from carrying out their horrible deeds. If they decide to do it ANYWAY that means we DON’T have to “feed, house and clothe” these REPROBATES for life . . . Team Trump and his allies 2020.

    Barr has a sensible solution to the problem, if a shooter knows that has will face death after a mass shooting it just might make the idiot think twice before picking up that gun and going on a shooting spree

    If the stupid ass politicians would have pushed for executions all along we wouldn’t be in the predicament that we are now. If people are afraid of what might happen to them if they do a crime then they may be deterred. If caught then they should have been executed. How many on death row should not be there now because of the DECADES long execution process?

    I think that the gun crime executions should also be PUBLIC. The 6 O’clock news would be a good format. BB in Western PA

    It is patently obvious that the liberal penchant for gun control comes from the same place that Hitler, Stalin, Mao and hundreds of other dictators fear of an armed citizenry arises, that being those same downtrodden overthrowing their tyrannical autocracies. The leftists in this country are “BIG GOVERNMENT” junkies. That means they are addicted to control and power and they don’t want the “useful idiots” waking up and smashing their thirst for authoritarianism with an armed rebellion. Lord Acton famously said “Power corrupts, absolute power corrupts absolutely,” and the left in this country is very, very corrupt!

    This will only work if the Punishment is Swift and Immediate.

      Yep – and it should be for mass murders no matter what “tool” is used. Mow down a bunch of bicyclists and pedestrians with a rental truck – same result. Set a building (or a boat) on fire and slaughter a bunch of folks, same thing. IOW it is the crime that needs to be punished swiftly and surely, regardless of the tool.

    Since the VAST majority of ALL gun violence is committed by Democrats or their offspring, just check voter registrations and remove guns from the hands of Democrats. Gun violence will all but disappear.
    This would also address the “Mental Health” aspect for as everyone knows, simply registering as a Democrat confirms that an individual is mentally unstable and should not possess a firearm…

    I laugh, the shootings in Chicago go on every weekend. The News is silent about it. Then again, it’s usually blacks killing blacks, so as I see it, it’s thinning the herd

    The death penalty swiftly carried out would definitely stop most of the mass shootings and you would have no repeat offenders.

    While quick death may be a deterrent to some, I suspect some of this shooters have a death wish and want to go out in a blaze of glory. What ever fix they come up with should not effect law biding gun owners.

    Bring back public hangings and public executions. Make it a “big” thing, like they did out in the old west. The women brought lunch and iced tea. After the hanging or execution, everyone sat down to a good lunch. Just sayin’.

    Another good option would be to restore equal justice under the law. There are many Democrats who need to be prosecuted for their crimes, starting with Hillary and on down the line. Letting anyone escape the law encourages more law breaking.
