America does not have a gun crime problem, Democratic-controlled cities have a gun crime problem3/31/2018 America doesn't have a gun violence epidemic. Democrat cities do. Before you read on, read the entire article. Were I a conspiracy theorist I would believe that the Dems created the gun crime epidemic in the cities to enable them to eliminate the Second Amendment. I do not think that this the reason the Democrats do not address inner-city gun crime. But it works in their favor about eliminating the Second Amendment. More below. The Democrats like the inner city crime problem because the local Democrats who control our cities can use the violent inner-city crime problem to build large city government which they claim are needed to fight these crime problems. It provides reasons to expand the welfare state which grows government. It creates pressure to expand policing, drug intervention, community activism and the like. All of these are used by the local Democratic politicians to cement power. Notice how these problems are never solved. Politicians do not want to solve problems they want to have problems they can address month after month, year after year. This is the sinecure of the local Democratic politician.
The solutions to these problems are universally more welfare, more federal handouts, more money sops to the local power brokers and politicians, and more community organizers. Mobs are roused, the treasury plundered, in the name of helping the people but the money wends its way into the hands of the politicians and the power brokers, not the people. This guarantees these problems will never be resolved, and the Democratic politicians will remain in power. The fact that this outsized inner-city violence allows the politicians to lobby for more gun control is a benefit but not the primary purpose of the charade. Resolution of these problems requires the elimination of the progressive system upon which the entire charade stands, and likely the legalization of drugs. Sadly, many on the Republican right stand hand in hand with the local Democratic politicians opposing drug legalization. The federal politicians (both parties) cannot stand the idea of losing the power which comes from the massive and expanding police/homeland security/ICE/Border Patrol state, and the Democratic Party locals cannot stand the idea of losing their sinecures. We have created a political system which is incentivized by policy failure. Policy failure allows more policies, shifting more power to both the local and federal politicians who expand government and reduce the rights of the individual but do not even begin to solve the problems. Lather, rinse, repeat. Every year this charade kills thousands of young men, mostly black men. These men are viewed by both political parties as expendable. These policies maintain large sections of the population on the Democratic inner-city plantation where votes are mined for the Democratic Party at surprisingly low cost. This needs to stop now!
