Germany’s Latest Crowd Attack Shows The Tool Was Never The Problem

A car rammed into a crowd in Leipzig, Germany, killing two people and injuring others.

And the irony is impossible to ignore.

Germany has some of the strictest gun laws in the developed world, yet it keeps dealing with car ramming attacks where ordinary vehicles are turned into weapons.

That’s the part the gun control crowd never wants to talk about.

Because the moment you admit bad people will use whatever tool is available to hurt innocent people, the entire “ban the tool” argument starts to collapse.

A gun.

A knife.

A truck.

A 4,000-pound SUV.

The tool changes, but evil doesn’t.

Nice, France proved it when one man with a truck killed more people than the deadliest mass shooting in American history. Oklahoma City proved it when one man used a rented truck and explosives to commit the deadliest act of domestic terrorism on U.S. soil.

You cannot ban your way to safety.

Disarming law-abiding people does not stop evil. It only makes sure good people have fewer options when evil shows up.

The firearm in the hands of a law-abiding citizen is the great equalizer.

You don’t get to choose how danger shows up.

You only get to choose whether you’re prepared.
