It all comes down to holding people accountable. Only at boot camp should the authority punish the whole for the failure of one. 99+% of people are good and will not commit crimes with or without guns. If someone abuses pain medicine, should we ban pain medicine even though it might be necessary for an illness? Similarly, if one person abuses their 2A rights, should we confiscate or ban guns even though guns are necessary for our defense at to protect ourselves from tyranny?
The liberals have created a monster in society. It is a monster that promotes laziness and bad behavior. It is a monster that places responsibility and wrongdoing not on the person, but on objects, on upbringings, on economic levels, etc. I lost my mind a year or so ago when I read an article about how Obuma was upset over conditions of prisons in the U.S. Seriously, you're worried about the living conditions of convicted criminals? If I had my way, I would make prisons worse than something from a Stephen King novel. I would make prisons so unbearable so that the conditions of prisons haunted criminals to the extent that they never wanted to commit a crime again.
I would eliminate welfare. I work 10+ hours days five days a week and pay my bills and have no debts. I have a comfortable life and am grateful for that. However, it wasn't handed to me. I worked and I continue to work hard to earn money and provide for my family and me. If I had my way, I would use welfare money as rewards for people who have worked for so long (you've been working for a year straight, here's a $100). When I see these fat bums on welfare buying brand name unessential commodities or booze or abusing their food stamps, it makes me cringe. I make a decent income, but I live within my means. I buy generic items and use coupons and I do not take out loans, rack up credit, or buy things that I do not have money on-hand for.
The liberals instead reward people who fail to find employment. Their mindset is "awe poor them, they don't have jobs." I can't blame them for staying on welfare when they can not work and have the same lifestyle that they'd have if they did work. Eliminate their welfare security blanket and perhaps they'd find gainful employment. It should be "hey lazy bums, go get a job and stop leeching off of the hard working members of society."
Sorry that was a tangent, but I think I made my point. Hold people accountable. Good, hardworking people should be treated like free men and women while lazy bums and criminals should be punished so they change their ways.
