One More Time: It\u2019s Not \u2018Gun Violence\u2019 It\u2019s Gang Violence.<\/a><\/p>\n

Every time you hear a politician or a media personality mention \u201cgun\u00a0violence,\u201d you should mentally translate that phrase to \u201cgang violence.\u201d Not only that, but ask yourself if that politician or media outlet has an agenda by mislabeling gang violence as something entirely different.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Obviously politicians who have enabled the \u201ccriminal justice reforms\u201d that have directly resulted in the out-of-control increases in violent crime across America don\u2019t want to talk about criminals and gangs. In fact, California\u2019s Gov. Newsom even went so far as to actuall\u00a0apologize for using the word \u201cgang\u201d<\/a>\u00a0when describing the organized groups of criminals who commit crimes (otherwise known as \u2018gangs\u2019).<\/p>\n

Rather than correctly identify those who commit the majority of violent crimes in this country, countless failed and inept politicians like the Land of Lincoln\u2019s Governor J.B. Pritzker and Murder City, USA\u2019s Mayor Lori Lightfoot instead blame law-abiding gun owners.<\/p>\n

They continue to promote more gun\u00a0control laws and more government spending to redirect peoples\u2019 attention away from the failures of their feckless policies and misplaced spending priorities.<\/p>\n

As for the media, there\u2019s a reason the great majority of Americans don\u2019t trust them any more.\u00a0Nine percent<\/a>\u00a0of Americans now have \u201ca great deal\u201d of trust in what they hear in the media. To put that into perspective, roughly four percent of the population\u00a0think lizard people \u201ccontrol our societies by gaining political power<\/a>.\u201d<\/p>\n

Too many of today\u2019s media members are nothing more than Democrat party operatives with bylines who dutifully spout leftist talking points. They willfully ignore stories that are bad for their political allies and their agenda. Or they cover them\u2026with a pillow. Until they stop moving.<\/strong><\/p>\n
