“If you want to use the law to try to stop San Bernardino, to try to stop the Fort Hood massacre — you want to use the law to try to stop what happened at the gay bar in Orlando — you\u2019re using the wrong law, and you\u2019re focusing on the wrong country. You need to change Sharia.” <\/p>\n

“You know, this is getting incredible, all the people who had encounters with the Orlando shooter — and some of them even told the FBI — and nothing happened. They\u2019re always telling us, ‘If you spot anything, tell us! Let us know! Call the authorities.\u2019 A lot of people did, and nothing happened.”<\/p>\n

“Trump hasn\u2019t got ads running. Trump\u2019s relying on free media that he\u2019s getting. Trump thinks he\u2019s gonna be able to counter all the Hillary ads and all the expensive attacks they are gonna make with free TV appearances, like it worked in the primaries.”<\/p>\n

“You can have every law and laws that you haven\u2019t even dreamed of written up and signed into law, and it\u2019s not gonna affect anybody who swears or intends to break them.”<\/p>\n

“The Orlando shooter is a militant Islamist and a registered Democrat — and, according to Obama, the ‘event,\u2019 the massacre is the fault of the NRA and the Republican Party.” <\/p>\n

“A registered Democrat militant Islamist massacres over 50 people, and it somehow… at the memorial yesterday, Obama politicizes it — you know, hijacking the memorial — and blames the NRA and the Republican Party for this. And it doesn\u2019t seem… except here and other conservative media outlets, it doesn\u2019t seem to be any big deal to anybody. They just fall right in line and accept it and believe it.” <\/p>\n

“We\u2019re gonna sue a potential President Trump, while we have signaled to the current Democrat president that there are no stops? ‘Whatever you want to do, Barack, have at it!\u2019 ‘We\u2019re gonna give you the money you asked for and maybe even more, and we\u2019re not gonna institute impeachment proceedings whatsoever. So have it!\u2019 But here\u2019s Trump before he\u2019s even officially nominated, and the Republican leadership is talking about how they\u2019re gonna go wherever they have to go to stop him. It\u2019s the establishment speaking. Yes, it is.”  <\/p>\n

“Not allowed to profile. Not allowed. The gun shop owner says to himself, ‘I probably shouldn\u2019t be thinking this. What a rotten guy I am!\u2019 That\u2019s what political correct does to you. It makes you think that you\u2019re some kind of Cretan for having a normal, instinctive, and proper, correct reaction. Intelligence guided by experience is all this guy was having happen to him.” <\/p>\n

“Obama could not wait to get out of Iraq. He was offered favorable conditions in a negotiation for the US military to stay in Iraq. Obama rejected it for political reasons. We got out of there; that left it wide open. Hello, ISIS.”   <\/p>\n

“Can you say the words ‘net neutrality\u2019? Obama\u2019s takeover of the internet will not be to prevent these kinds of things terror events from happening. He\u2019s got an entirely different agenda. All the Democrats do. It\u2019s total control. It\u2019s limiting access to information. It\u2019s about shutting down opposition. That\u2019s why they want control of the internet. Pure and simple.” <\/p>\n

“If you banned every gun from inside the continental United States, you would not stop Mateen from doing what he, \u2019cause there\u2019s always gonna be a black market of them. There\u2019s always going to be a criminal element that is going to have what the law says you can\u2019t have. There\u2019s always gonna be a criminal element doing what the law says you can\u2019t do.” <\/p>\n

“Ten years ago it would have been accurate to say the American people find it ridiculous that in response to a terror attack, the Democrats blame the Second Amendment and law-abiding citizens. I think it\u2019s applauded by a lot of Americans today. That\u2019s why we\u2019re in the situation.” <\/p>\n

“Yesterday the CIA director threw Obama overboard, totally countered everything Obama had said about ISIS — how strong they were, how capable their intentions — and about our inability, ineffectiveness as stopping \u2019em. And today, 51 State Department employees have signed a memo overwhelmingly disagreeing with State Department policy in Syria. What\u2019s going on?”  <\/p>\n

“We\u2019re all told, ‘If you see something suspicious, you call it in! If you see something, tell us about it.\u2019  And a lot of people were doing that, and it still didn\u2019t stop anything. And look, folks, there can be only one explanation for this, and that is that this poison of political correctness has paralyzed everybody.<\/p>\n

“By definition, the law is not going to stop people who intend to violate it. You can write any law you want, and all it is, is a piece of paper. Without respect for the law, the rule of law, and a common understanding of the glue that keeps civil society together, laws are meaningless, except in how they define a society. Same thing with morality. Morality is how a society defines itself, defines what\u2019s right and wrong. The law is a coequal player in this.” <\/p>\n

“There is not a single law that could have been written in the United States Congress signed by the president would have stopped Mateen.” <\/p>\n

“The law does not stop criminals. The law does not stop people who break it. The law is not a magic wand. The law has far greater purposes in defining a society, in defining a culture, in handing out punishment for people who violate it. But the people who violate it are not controlled by it.”   <\/p>\n

“If Obama is serious about changing the law in ways that would prevent things like this, he better go talk to the imams. He better head off to Egypt and find the grand sheik that\u2019s responsible for interpreting Sharia all over the world and have a talk with him and say, ‘You\u2019ve gotta get rid of this part of Sharia that allows your people to start wantonly murdering ours.\u2019  But he\u2019s never gonna do that.” <\/p>\n

“Obama says it defies the most logical thing in the world to think that other people with a gun in the bar could have stopped the guy. No, it is the epitome of logic! How are these people stopped? Armed individuals. Usually the police. But we hate them, too, don\u2019t we? Yeah.” <\/p>\n

“Democrats have succeeded, via the educational system, in really dumbing down two generations of Americans.”<\/p>\n

“I follow more Drive-By Media than most people do.  It\u2019s a wonder I\u2019m still sane, by the way, and in a good mood every day.  I know people that read the Drive-By Media 15% as much as I do and they\u2019re already in a funk for the rest of their lives.”<\/p>\n<\/section>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
