Please pray for the victims and their families…

Notwithstanding the president’s misguided ideological assessment of the violence in Charleston, I’ve still been hesitant to engage in the inevitable debate over gun control which always seems to be at the top of the Liberal solution list. I suppose the words of Progressive stalwart Rahm Emanuel, “You never let a serious crisis go to waste”, still apply.

Truth be told, I’m pretty tired of quoting statistics and hard facts with which I regularly debunk the band-aide pandering and politics of the Left. I’m tired of hearing these hacks blame our Constitution for the very societal ills they themselves created by way of generational welfare and the destruction of the American family unit. I’m tired of listening to the “main stream media” fan the flames of evil and hatred for the sake of the nightly ratings war. And frankly, I’m fed up with listening to the Obama Administration nonchalantly offer up a trashing of our great nation for the entire world to hear once again.

For my part, and at least for the short term, I’m content to take some solace in the words of forgiveness spoken so easily and soulfully by those whose lives have been forever scarred by the events of this past week. Their faith and confidence in God will help me to find the right words soon enough…
