Baltimore Police Chief Johnson: The Folly of a Blue City Politician

At yesterday’s Senate hearing on gun control, Ted Cruz once again stood out as an articulate voice for commonsense. After declaring the Senate to be a “fact-free zone,” he went on to destroy the myth that there is a consequential difference between an “assault weapon” and a regular semi-automatic rifle. You can watch him in action for the first 3.5 minutes of the clip.

Beginning at the 3:45 mark, Cruz finally confronts gun-grabbers with a question they can never answer. He asked Baltimore Police Chief Jim Johnson why states like Texas have a low homicide rate, even in urban areas, while gun-grabbing cities like DC, Chicago and Illinois are like warzones. Of course, he dodged the question and retorted with non-sequiturs and red herrings:

Simple Global Warming. Everyone knows this is much more of a problem in big cities, particularly those run by Democrats.

In the raging debate between the NRA's Wayne LaPierre and gun control advocates, it has occurred to me and others that:

 

Criminals don't want background checks on weapons purchases. LaPierre doesn't want them, either.

 

Criminals don't want their weapons registered. Neither does LaPierre.

 

Criminals recognize no limits on possessing of weapons. LaPierre doesn't want any limits, either.

 

Criminals use weapons to carry out their personal life choices. LaPierre uses the profits from gun manufacturer's weapons sales to fund donations to advance his and the NRA's agenda.

 

Criminals use fear and intimidation to get their way. LaPierre uses the very same tactics to get his way.

 

It's frightening how much alike LaPierre and the criminals are.
