President Barack Obama and his fellow progressives like to
talk about “gun violence,” as if it guns themselves stroll about
American cities and commit acts of violence, unassisted by human beings.
The silly term is meant to hide the obvious fact that it is indeed criminals using those guns, who comprise the problem, not the firearms acting alone. To deflect attention from terrorists, including Islamic terrorists, whom the president urgently feels must not be named, seems even more important to them.
It took the Administration days to fully admit what everyone knew: the mass shooting in San Bernardino was a terrorist attack, not the “workplace violence” they seemingly wished it were. Why wish it? The workplace violence scenario provides a choice target, better propelling their gun control agenda.
It took six long years for Mr. Obama to finally refer to the Ft. Hood shooting as a terrorist incident.
