Gun-Grabber, Socialized Murdercine, Progressivism FAIL

 

 

What banning guns from law-abiding citizens has led to in the UK: “Armed officers placed on routine foot patrol for first time” to deal with skyrocketing numbers of armed thugs.

 

Meanwhile, criminals in the UK continue to receive light sentences for serious crimes as citizens increasingly hemmed in by regulations, laws, and surveillance and afraid to step outside because of the criminal are forced to live in fear of both the criminal and the government. The death penalty for murder is banned and the criminal is let out early while the elderly, those suffering from certain types of breast cancer and other ailments, and those born too young, are condemned to die.

 

This, of course, is where liberalism invariably leads: injustice for the powerless at every level. While some may herald this as proof of some great leap forward for the progressive movement, they fail to differentiate between progressivism and progress. In reality it leaves citizens stuck in a system that only differs from places like Iran and China in that it chooses to use the slow death of passive aggression to wipe away their human rights, which winds up being just as tragic.

 

Thankfully, Britons may be waking up to this, but sadly the Obama  administration seems intent on moving Americans toward this failed dystopia, whether they like it or not. Progressive? More like regressive – back towards the most barbaric of times before the powerless had rights. A sad commentary indeed.
