It happened after Sandy Hook.It happened after San Bernardino and Orlando.It happened last week after Dallas.Whenever a spoiled young nut job, wannabe Islamic terrorist or disturbed cop-hater goes on a mass killing spree, liberals and their choir members in the mainstream media can be counted on to react in the same ignorant, knee-jerky way.It was the gun’s fault.It doesn’t matter if the weapon was a handgun, an assault weapon look-alike or a deer rifle.It’s never the evil or insane individual who was responsible for the slaughter of innocents. It was the gun.Gun control is always the liberals’ off-the-shelf solution for ending mass murders, the deadly gang wars in Chicago and suicides.For decades they have demanded stricter gun laws or dreamed of outlawing guns altogether.Liberals hate everything about guns (unless their body guards are packing them) and don’t trust ordinary people to own them or use them.They’ll never understand why our Constitution protects individual gun ownership. (Hint: it’s not to protect our right to hunt squirrels.)Liberals like Hillary Clinton and President Obama would throw the Second Amendment overboard in a Washington minute if they could.What anti-gun nuts have turned to lately in their fight against gun violence and mass killings is the idea of “ammo control.”Restricting the size of magazines or the number of cartridges a pistol or rifle can hold is the liberals’ latest “magic bullet.”A liberal friend of mine recently tried to persuade me that ammo control was a good idea.“OK,” I said, “let’s accept your premise. Let’s say we restrict my shotgun’s capacity to just three shells.“If I went into a movie theater to kill people, how many times do you think I could reload before someone could stop me?
