What simple law could stop this?  Look, folks, this is crucial.  I don\u2019t mind being redundant.  Just pummel people with this.  The dream of gun control exists.  It existed on the campus, this college in Oregon.  It exists in every school campus in this country practically.  Every one of them is a gun-free zone.  Every one of them is the utopia the left wants.  Every damned one of them.  There aren\u2019t any guns in the hands of good people.  And yet guns still end up there. <\/p>\n<p><img id=\"eZObject_111749\" class=\"aligncenter\" align=\"middle\" src=\"https:\/\/live-rush-limbaugh.pantheonsite.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/RushFlag6-DrainCleanerLady.jpg\"\/><BR\/>Obama says we\u2019ve got to stop this.  Nobody can tell us how to do this.  Unless you just eliminate guns, and even if you tried that, even if there were a new law that said the only people in America who could legally own guns were law enforcement, federal, state, local, Secret Service, things like, do you think that would end the practice of guns being in the hands of criminals?  They don\u2019t have a solution for this.  The advocates of gun control do not have a solution, folks. <\/line><\/p>\n<p>If you are a well-intentioned big-hearted person and this kind of thing rips your heart out and makes you sad and makes you cry and you\u2019re longing for a solution to where this kind of thing doesn\u2019t happen anymore, let me just tell you that the people on the Democrat side, left side of this country with their ideas, will not solve this.  They do not have a solution.  We\u2019ve had a blueprint.  We\u2019ve got a testing ground, if you will, on every school campus in the.  Why are there school shootings, anyway?  Why are there school shootings and not other places?  Because everybody knows there are no guns allowed there.  And there are kids there.  Security people don\u2019t even have guns.  It all makes sense. <\/p>\n<p>The bottom line is you cannot fix this with gun control.  You would think that would have been learned by now.  And I maintain to you even if people like Obama and every other elected Democrat, Hillary Clinton, know that you cannot solve this with gun control, it will not stop them from pushing for it.  The roots of this can be found in two places:  cultural rot &#8212; which has led to a lack of respect for the sanctity of life itself and for people &#8212; and, the second thing is, a culture that is making mentally ill people into cult heroes through media and social media. <\/p>\n<p>Oh, I know.  The Oregon shooter was not even a student at the school.  He went there for this very purpose.  He went there to kill Christians. <\/p>\n<p>You want to stop these kind of things?  We\u2019ve gotta clean up the soul of our nation.  We have to stop making cult heroes out of mentally ill people.  And we have got to somehow reverse this lack of respect and sanctity for life itself.  This story doesn\u2019t have anything to do with the incident per se, but it does have to do with something I just mentioned.  I read the most incredible story in the New York Post.  I read it, I read the headline, &#8220;Well, this has gotta be an intriguing story.&#8221; <\/p>\n<p>The headline of the story is:  &#8220;<a target=\"_blank\" href=\"http:\/\/nypost.com\/2015\/10\/01\/i-blinded-myself-on-purpose-and-have-never-been-happier\/\">I Poured Drain Cleaner In My Eyes to Blind Myself<\/a>.&#8221;  You will not believe this story.  This is a story supporting what this woman did.  &#8220;I Poured Drain Cleaner In My Eyes to Blind Myself &#8212; For most people, going blind is their worst nightmare, but for this North Carolina woman it was a dream come true.&#8221; All right, that\u2019s kind of perverted there, folks.  I mean, we know we\u2019re off the rails here just in that opening sentence.  &#8220;For most people going blend is their worst nightmare, but for this North Carolina woman it was a dream come true.&#8221;  I\u2019m not gonna mention her name.  The newspaper story does, but I\u2019m not, \u2019cause I don\u2019t want people to get misdirected on this.  But the woman is 30 years old. <\/p>\n<p>She was &#8220;so desperate to be blind that she poured draining cleaner in her baby blues to wipe out her eyesight &#8212; and she couldn\u00c2\u2019t be happier.&#8221;  Wait, wait, wait, now.  It gets better.  This woman, 30 years old, &#8220;suffers from an illness called body integrity identity disorder (BIID) &#8212; a disease that causes able-bodied people to strongly desire a disability. &#8216;I really feel this is the way I was supposed to be born, that I should have been blind from birth.\u2019 The afflicted woman knew from a young age she wanted to be blind, and would attempt to harm her eyesight by staring at the sun while &#8216;blind-simming,\u2019 or pretending to be blind.&#8221;  By the way, this story can be found in the everyday news pages of the New York Post, not in the oddball, weirdo, you won\u2019t believe it section. <\/p>\n<p><a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/live-rush-limbaugh.pantheonsite.io\/?p=6204\"><img id=\"eZObject_111748\" class=\"aligncenter\" align=\"middle\" src=\"https:\/\/live-rush-limbaugh.pantheonsite.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/RushSocial-Issues.jpg\"\/><\/a>&#8220;By the time Shuping turned 21, the idea of being blind was &#8216;a non-stop alarm that was going off\u2019 and she sought the help of a sympathetic psychologist to help her carry out her ultimate desire in 2006. The psychologist gave her eye-numbing drops before sprinkling a few droplets of drain cleaner into each pupil. &#8216;It hurt, let me tell you. My eyes were screaming and I had some drain cleaner going down my cheek burning my skin,\u2019 she said. &#8216;But all I could think was, &#8220;I am going blind, it is going to be okay.&#8221;  Dr. Michael First, professor of clinical psychiatry at Columbia University, says that people who suffer from BIID can\u00c2\u2019t control their need to be disabled.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>I never heard of this until I read this story today.  I\u2019ve certainly never met anybody that had it.  The Columbia University psychiatry professor: &#8220;These people are aware that this feeling of theirs is unusual &#8212; they know it is coming from within them. They can\u00c2\u2019t explain it.&#8221; This woman is &#8220;now studying for a degree in education and is hoping to help other blind people live an independent life. She hopes that by sharing her story, it will encourage other sufferers of BIID to seek professional help.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Okay, so a standard news story in an everyday American newspaper with wide readership, New York Post, blind integrity identity disorder, and the woman is portrayed here as finally realizing her dream.  But now everybody knows her story.  She has also achieved great fame or &#8212; well, she\u2019s on the way.  This will do it.  And she\u2019s going to have lots of media attention, and they\u2019ll be asking her about it, and she will have all kinds of answers about her blin, body integrity identity disorder, and a whole lot of really confused and unstable Americans all over the country are gonna see this, and they\u2019re going to react to it, some of them in way that, &#8220;Hey, man, you know what?  Everybody knows who she is, it\u2019s a way to get fame.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>And this could trigger in a whole lot of people a sudden, &#8220;Yeah, you know what?  I know I\u2019m unhappy.  Now I know why.  I\u2019m supposed to be disabled.&#8221;  And who knows what some people might start doing in order to make themselves disabled now.  Because this portrayed as absolutely normal, and she even had the assistance of a Columbia University psychiatry professor and a medical door who actually participated in pouring Drano in her eyes to make her go blind in order realize a life ambition.  That\u2019s sick.<\/p>\n<p>BREAK TRANSCRIPT<\/p>\n<p><img id=\"eZObject_111791\" class=\"alignright\" align=\"right\" alt=\"large\" src=\"https:\/\/live-rush-limbaugh.pantheonsite.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/103060418_large.jpg\"\/><BR\/>RUSH:  Yeah, <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/live-rush-limbaugh.pantheonsite.io\/?p=6204\">it was just a few weeks ago we had a story about a guy cut off an arm<\/a> or something, another example of &#8220;body identity integrity disorder.&#8221;  He knew that he wasn\u2019t supposed to have both arms or both legs or something.  Look, there are mental disorders all over the world.  There are people that are mentally ill and so forth, and we\u2019re not treating them properly.  We\u2019re making cult heroes out of some of them.  We\u2019re making them, in other cases, cultural leaders in the sense that they are really in touch with themselves. <\/line><\/p>\n<p>And it\u2019s truly dangerous.  <\/p>\n<p>That, as much as guns, is an explanation for what\u2019s going on.  These are sick people.  And yet we\u2019re treating them as though they\u2019re rational and we want to apply rationally made laws to irrational people.  And then we end up blaming the law or the lack of it.  And it\u2019s because of political correctness that we cannot honestly talk about mental illness and deal with it.  Half of the homeless are mentally ill. They should not be on the street. They should be institutionalized.<\/p>\n<p>But somebody came along some time ago and said, &#8220;Yeah, it\u2019s a violation of their human and political rights,&#8221; and plus, they\u2019re a great political weapon.  It\u2019s a great way to blame Republicans for not caring about people.  You never hear about the homeless during Democrat administrations, other than that one story from LA last couple of weeks which still puzzles me how that happened, but nevertheless it did.  <\/p>\n<p>BREAK TRANSCRIPT<\/p>\n<p>RUSH:  Open Line Friday, Colorado Springs is next.  This is Carol.  It\u2019s great to have you on the program.  Hello.<\/p>\n<p>CALLER:  I have two points.  I want to say how much we really love you, and I have a gift for you. You\u2019re so generous and you always give things to other people, so I want to make sure that I can get that through somehow. If I can just have an e-mail or something after this to know how to send something, it\u2019s actually a painting.  I\u2019m an artist, and it\u2019s a painting that you inspired.<\/p>\n<p><a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/live-rush-limbaugh.pantheonsite.io\/?p=6188\"><img id=\"eZObject_111770\" class=\"aligncenter\" align=\"middle\" src=\"https:\/\/live-rush-limbaugh.pantheonsite.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/ToThePhones0603Trio.jpg\"\/><\/a>RUSH:  Wow. Well, when we\u2019re finished here, hang on &#8212;<\/p>\n<p>CALLER:  Yeah.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: &#8212; and Mr. Snerdley will pick up the phone, and if we have such an address, he will give it to you.<\/p>\n<p>CALLER:  Okay.  Well, I want you to see it, like I said &#8212; I\u2019ll tell you what it is real quick.  It\u2019s a giant rooster crying, you know, screaming, and the body, part of it has the United States in it, and it\u2019s just symbolic of who you are and what you do.  And I think you\u2019ll like it.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH:  Thank you.<\/p>\n<p>CALLER:  I\u2019m not a bad artist.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH:  Trying to wake everybody up, huh, that\u2019s the point?<\/p>\n<p>CALLER:  Correct.  It\u2019s called Wake Up America.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH:  Right.  I knew that when you said a rooster was in it.<\/p>\n<p>CALLER:  Yes.  It\u2019s pretty symbolic, but I think you\u2019ll like it.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH:  Thank you.  Thank you much.<\/p>\n<p><img id=\"eZObject_111792\" class=\"alignleft\" align=\"left\" alt=\"large\" src=\"https:\/\/live-rush-limbaugh.pantheonsite.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/149627809_large.jpg\"\/><BR\/>CALLER:  And the point, you\u2019ve talked about a lot of things, but a while back you were talking about this woman that wanted herself to be disabled, and, you know, obviously, those who can think straight, you know, like most people, this is a horrible choice. And most people that are disabled would give anything not to be disabled, to be able-bodied.  My husband and I actually own a business here in Colorado Springs that helps people live in their homes so that if they\u2019re disabled they can get around, get in and out, that sort of thing. We have some lifts and ramps and that. I\u2019m so concerned that we have let personal choice go completely crazy where it\u2019s just okay, no matter what somebody decides &#8212;<\/line><\/p>\n<p>RUSH:  Well, but, see, I would stop you.  I know it looks like we\u2019re letting personal choice go crazy, but we\u2019re really not.  We\u2019re letting certain people engage in personal choice, seemingly without limit.  And it is the kind of people who are being extended this opportunity that is curious.  What she\u2019s talking about here, folks, there\u2019s a woman, it\u2019s in the New York Post today, woman who claims to have an illness called body integrity identity disorder, and she claims that she has known from the moment of her birth that she should have been blind.  She\u2019s incomplete because she can see. <\/p>\n<p>She went to a psychiatrist at Columbia University who assisted her in pouring Drano in her eyes, blinding her, thereby making her whole.  The story in the New York Post today celebrates this, and that\u2019s what\u2019s wrong.  We obviously have a very sorrowful mental disorder here that has been aided and assisted by somebody at Columbia University. They\u2019ve even given this so-called disorder or disease a name, body integrity identity disorder.  But you can look throughout our society, and we are celebrating this kind of mutilation in the human body in any number of ways, and we\u2019re making cult heroes out of these people, and we are applauding their courage and their ability and willingness to openly know who they really are and to be unafraid of it.  And we are not helping them, and we\u2019re not helping anybody else in this process, either. <\/p>\n<p>There\u2019s another name for this desire to be disabled.  It\u2019s called transableism.  I kid you not.  And we\u2019re in the process of mainstreaming this.  And why are we in the process of mainstreaming this?  Because you don\u2019t have the right to decide whether somebody is off kilter, it\u2019s not up to you.  You\u2019re bigoted, you\u2019re prejudiced and you\u2019re biased if you think somebody is mentally disabled.  There is no mental disability.  There are only people\u2019s desires and their deeply held ability to get in touch with themselves.  So all this stuff gets mainstreamed and normalized, people get famous as a result of it, which creates copycats.  Look, folks, there\u2019s a reason that all of this is happening.  And in every instance it starts with an L, the word starts with an L.
