No, stop blaming Schizophrenics you anti-gun nuts....

A few days ago I sat down on the couch and turned on the television. I wasn't looking for anything in particular to watch, and ended up clicking on CNN. Most of the time I cannot stomach the Clinton News Network and their peddling of liberal propaganda. Every time I hear Chris Cuomo talk I feel like punching myself in the face. But anywho, I sat there and watched a few minutes of the show and listened as some woman interviewed a republican senator whose name escapes me at the moment. The basis of the conversation circled around gun control laws. I listened as this Nazi wench hammered into the guy over gun laws. Then she brought up the mentally ill. Should the mentally ill be allowed to own guns? The Senator's response was perfect. He explained the number of people who are currently on social security disability due to a mental illness. If they were to try and pass gun laws restricting gun ownership of those who are mentally disabled, we would be putting that decision in the hands of the social security board, for them to decide who is fit enough to own a firearm--and that wouldn't work. She then asked him the question, "Would you feel comfortable with a paranoid schizophrenic person owning a gun?" He simply answered that that wasn't his call to make. And he's right.

If we take a good hard look at the statistics then some of you may be surprised. Most people with schizophrenia are NOT violent. In fact, most violent crimes are NOT committed by people with schizophrenia. People with schizophrenia are MUCH more likely to harm themselves than others.

Now let's look at the picture of mental illness as a whole. The vast majority of people with mental illness are no more likely to be violent than anyone else. Most people with mental illness are NOT violent and only 3-5% of violent acts can be attributed to individuals living with a serious mental illness. In fact, people with mental illness are 10 times more likely to be VICTIMS of violent crime than the general population.

So the mentally ill are 10 times more likely to be the VICTIMS of violent crimes....the victims. And because they are mentally ill they shouldn't be allowed to own a gun to protect themselves?? How does this make sense???? The problem with violent gun crimes in this nation are not because of mentally ill people. The problem is that criminals in general do not obey laws. Look at Chicago?? Do you think the hundreds of deaths last year that were caused by gun violence was because the shooter had a mental illness? Or was it because they shot someone up over drugs? Or gang related issues? Or because they wanted someone's car?? How many went to court and pled the insanity defense?

People seem to not comprehend the difference between mental illness and flat out evil. Sorry folks, there are evil people in this world with absolutely nothing wrong with them other than they have no heart. And there isn't any type of medication to fix that. Same goes for radical Islamic extremists who want nothing more than to kill all infidels.

The point of this entire post is that these anti-gun nuts are picking and choosing where to start their attack. It begins with one group of people, the mentally ill. Take their guns away and then move onto another group of people. It's essentially a domino effect. I will also add that if we are talking about crimes committed by the mentally ill, people need to take into account the different types of mental illnesses that are lumped in there. Bi-polar, depression, learning disabilities, anxiety, OCD, even gender dysphoria (transgenderism). These are all categorized as being different types of mental illnesses. So they will start with taking gun rights away from those diagnosed with schizophrenia, and then move on to bi-polars, then the depressed, etc. You see what I'm talking about and what utter B.S. it is?
