I said nothing of the sort,that dead children are a distraction.What I said was the "gun control debate" being waged by certain elements,for lack of a better word, is not a debate at all,it is a distraction and a crusade.

Crime and violence are indeed mounting,caused by the miseries of a decaying pathetic capitalist society.The ruling class, society’s biggest criminals,breed misery and violent crime in many communities.One of the favorite pet projects of the gatekeepers of Capitalism is gun control...take weapons away from everyone but the police and the military.That is not the call now,but if some "elements" in the gun-control crowd have their way,it will be.I do not agree with that stance at all.

You might choose to live in a world where everything is black and white.Good guys and bad guys. Americans and our military and police are the good guys fighting a war against evil.Some of us don't live in that world.The distinction is not that clear.

In any event don't put words in my mouth,because it is not appreciated or called for.
