"I Live With A Son Who Is Mentally Ill. I Love My Son. But He Terrifies Me "

Ace of Spades

excerpts:

This is just another Gabby Giffords episode.  The left will try to exploit it for political gain.

From the political standpoint, we need better arguments to counter this ideological attack.  This article is the step in the right direction.

Furthermore, in some of these cases, from what I can gather, the entire situation could have been mitigated or even eliminated with some simple steps that weren't taken.  But when this type of tragedy finally happens, the first thing we hear is the ideological call for gun control.  Or how it is the result of something that is somehow the political right's fault.

Those of us who support our traditional forms of governance are under increasing assault.  We need to do better in the increasing need to protect our way of life from this ideological and cultural assault.   Besides, as I have mentioned again and again, ideology can make you stupid.  Our reactions to these tragedies tend towards stupidity because the first thing out of someone's mouth all too often is some stupid ideological argument.
