Both sides are exploiting this issue disgracefully and insensitively - the left with its "Did A Gun Save Her?" headline supplied to us by the notoriously anti-Second Amendment New York Daily News yesterday regarding the murder of Tyson Gay's daughter in Lexington, KY, and the right with its constant references to "Chicago" which reek of the worst sort of hypocrisy: They exalt "masculinity" when white men (like Donald Trump) show it, but when black men do - by refusing to forgive those who wrong them, which is the motive for like 99.9% of these "shootings in Chicago" - they are reviled in the sharpest and most stereotypical possible terms.
"These, and many other matters which might be noticed, add a volume of unofficial declarations to the mass of organic utterances that this is a Christian nation" - Justice David Brewer, Church of the Holy Trinity v. United States, 1892
