The victim
This really is a sad story. In the East London suburb of Ilford, a woman, eight months pregnant by her second husband, is innocently washing dishes while her crazy first husband sneaks into the backyard toolshed with a–a crossbow! And with it he shoots her dead (https://www.thesun.co.uk/news/7746015/man-appears-in-court-accused-of-shooting-heavily-pregnant-ex-wife-dead-with-a-crossbow/). They’re now trying to save the baby.
London, where having a gun for self-defense is against the law, recently overtook New York City in the murder rate sweepstakes. A lot of people getting stabbed, these days: they’re seriously pondering knife control.
Are they gonna need crossbow control, too?
Here is what humanists and other leftids simply refuse to understand. The will to murder comes not from the outside, but from within. Gun control, knife control, yatta-yatta–when it comes to murder, where there’s a will, there’s a way. If they can’t shoot you, they’ll stab you, and if they can’t stab you, there’s strangulation, poison, the old blunt instrument a la “Mrs. Peacock in the Conservatory with the Lead Pipe”… or a crossbow.
The problem is not insufficient government, improperly written laws, or Science that just hasn’t found The Answer yet (but surely will, someday soon). The problem is sin; and the only solution is personal regeneration through belief in Jesus Christ.
They can pass laws till they’re blue in the face; but as long as they demand a culture that rejects salvation, there will be no salvation available. Only more murders.
Amen! I’ve been speaking this view for a long time. Violence is birthed in the heart and will be acted out with or without a firearm. ‘If guns are outlawed, only outlaws will have guns’. Look what happened when Australia went gun free…”the problem is sin”!
Jesus said, “For out of the heart proceed evil thoughts, murders, adulteries, fornications, thefts, false witness, blasphemies…” (Matthew 15:19)
Our problem isn’t that we didn’t write enough laws!
You certainly nailed this one, Lee. I have always tried to tell people this, but lots of them won’t listen. You are right, it is a matter of the heart.
Bulls-eye, Lee!
Very true. Sin is the real problem.
(UK hospitals don’t have a good track record for “saving” babies.)
From your words to Congress’ ears. Unfortunately, Congress’ ears require a special liberal key to open. Nevertheless, it’s not about weapon control or gun control, it’s about people control. They don’t care about what weapons people use to kill other people. Our military uses guns, Soros’ armies have guns. They want us unarmed and ready for the next stage of their totalitarian takeover. And they use mass shooting false flags as a cover to confiscate them. So now that God has been defied, in their minds, and they know that people without God are sinful, they’re counting on them – to be sinful. Another reason for the war on Christians. How about a war on war already!! Or did I change the subject…
