JASON: You know, one of the reasons that we love to play the Rush clips and why this program\u2019s gonna continue in this way<\/a> is he was so prescient on the issues of the day. As I mentioned earlier, they don\u2019t change. We now have the specter of Biden exploiting this tragedy in Colorado. He\u2019s going to speak on it. Gee, I wonder what that\u2019s gonna be about. Democrat Senator Murphy is saying if you don\u2019t pass gun control, you\u2019re in favor of mass shootings — words to that effect.<\/p>\n

The representative in Boulder demanding more gun control. The House has already passed their universal background check, which means your uncle can\u2019t bequeath to you a weapon without reporting it or registering it to the Feds. Let\u2019s understand this: Universal background check is de facto registration. But they are gonna be all over this, and that\u2019s why Rush had it 100% right when not that long ago he said he hates these sorts of days. Listen.<\/a><\/p>\n

RUSH: I have been dreading this today, like I dread every such day, but I\u2019m looking at media and I get the impression that there are some that are actually looking forward to this or having — I don\u2019t want to say — fun with it, but I get the impression that there are a lot of people really energized by this. And that, of course, is because they think it\u2019s going to help them mobilize their political agenda. And I\u2019m just sick of it.<\/p>\n

\"\"I have to tell you, I\u2019m just sick of it. I\u2019m sick every time one of these happens. I don\u2019t care which. I mean, the first time of any note was, you know, 1995, Oklahoma City bombing. I wake up, Bill Clinton is blaming me. And from that point on and probably prior to that, from that point on, every time one of these things happens, what do we do? We hear the initial report and we\u2019re just devastated. We hate it. We hate that this is happening to our country.<\/p>\n

Then the next thing that happens is, we have to hear that we — because of what we believe, because of our religious values, our political values, that we — are responsible for it. So that begins (sigh) a cycle of people either cross-blaming or defending themselves, and it\u2019s just a never-ending cycle that does not change. And, as such, we never even get close to the root of this. We never get close to it.<\/p>\n

We never get close to explaining it, to understanding it. It just is a repeating cycle here that, at the end of it, there\u2019s just ongoing heartbreak added to frustration. And I think that\u2019s what really irritates me more than anything about this is that some people seem to look at this as a political opportunity and are using it for everything they\u2019ve got. Then we have these massive numbers of Democrats demanding that Congress be called back to pass something? It almost reaches an hysteria.<\/p>\n

So there we have, once again, another Democrat tenet that government must do something, that government is the only institute that can do anything about it. “We\u2019ve got to have legislation! We\u2019ve got to have members of Congress come back.” There is nothing these people can do that will fix this. There isn\u2019t anything an act of legislation is gonna do. There isn\u2019t any gun control legislation that\u2019s gonna address this.<\/p>\n

We have a systemic cultural problem, and not a single piece of legislation will make a damn bit of difference in this. And everybody involved in it knows it. It\u2019s just that the left will do anything — will take the opportunity, the occasion of anything — to advance their political agenda, which requires as, point number one, the constant expansion and growth of government.<\/p>\n
