Letter: Make-believe world

The recent killings in California and Paris had a thing in common. The killers were Islamic. The liberal segment will of course scream that it was because of guns and that we must take them away from all in the U.S.

Common sense should tell us that upon surveying violence around the world, it’s most prevalent in Islamic countries. Should we wish to be safer, then we must stop immigration from those countries. The president lied that violence of this type is worse here than anywhere; it is at this time probably worst in Syria, where genocide is being committed against Christians. It’s being committed by Islamic doctrine. The same happened in Iraq. Our leaders would sooner posture against Majority Christian nuclear Russia. Common sense 1, ally with them.

The California killers had pipe bombs, so the killing could have been more effective had they used them. Our leaders need to look at the real situation, and not dance around in some make-believe world that all religions are the same, and that gun control will end mass violence.
