Sauce for the Goose..."

Should be sauce for the gander. But not, apparently, for the mayor of Pittsburgh. He thinks because he is an “important person,” he needs to have armed security, while the rest of you aren’t important enough to have it. And there is nothing new about that. The same is true of all politicians who run around behind a WALL of “armed security” while many of them work very hard to DENY us the same right. But it’s even more important in Pittsburgh, where that selfsame mayor told us confidently that allowing legal concealed carriers to bring their guns to church so there would be guns there to defend the church-goers from fools like the one who killed eleven people in that synagogue is not the answer, when it clearly IS the answer. He just doesn’t recognize it. No anti-gun fool, nor their dupes, will admit that allowing legally-armed people to bring their guns with them into previously “no-gun zones” can be the answer. They think they will “go nuts” and shoot the place up. They will not. No more than MOST of the holders of ILLEGAL guns do. Only a small number of them do. Maybe one out of a thousand legally-armed people MIGHT “go nuts” and shoot up the landscape, but a much higher number of ILLEGALLY-armed people do. Better to let legally-armed people bring their guns with them to counter those illegally-armed ‘shooters. That’s a fact the anti-gun fools aren’t intelligent enough to understand. (Trib Live)
