If people were perfect, I wouldn’t have to keep harping on this theme. But I’m not, so I will.

Murder.

Several of our readers, I assume, are not guilty of murder. Good! This boosts our credibility, at least in the morality department. A life is a precious thing — a once-in-a-lifetime gift, you might say. But we all know that there are depraved people who murder. And we all know that sucks.

I am getting depressed writing this, so bear with me.

Why would anyone murder another person? I assume (I haven’t done it, myself) it’s mostly to get someone out of the way, or to commit a crime, or to cover up another crime, or to cover up a cover-up. It is never right and should be stopped. What is the Democrats’ plan to stop it? Letting murderers out of jail, on a promise not to do it again. I am here to speak against this.

If a murderer gets out of jail, what is his natural thought process? “I am going to murder again, and probably the same people who pissed me off on the day of my trial” seems to be as likely to spring to his murderous mind as anything else.

(I said “his” because women don’t seem to do this as often, but don’t let female murders out of prison either. The same thought process, in a slightly higher register, but sometimes not, in the name of equity should be presumed to apply to them.)

Once the murderers are out of confinement, they become very, very dangerous to their next victims. Is this moral?

Thank God there is a Second Amendment to help you answer this question of morality! Because Democrats won’t.
