\"Listen<\/a><\/p>\n

RUSH: You know, it\u2019s starting to get tiresome which is what they want, I think, is to just wear everybody down. So you\u2019ve gotta fight, the been there, done that aspect of this. That\u2019s exactly what the Obama people want you to do is just throw up your hands and say “to heck with it,” and they move in. It\u2019s Friday, folks. Let\u2019s just keep going here.<\/p>\n

JOHNNY DONOVAN: And now, from sunny south Florida, it\u2019s Open Line Friday!<\/p>\n

RUSH: What I mean is tiresome is the predictable reaction of things like this. The absolute lack of common sense reaction to stuff like this from President Obama, to everybody in the media. For crying out loud, folks, they had gun control on this school. There weren\u2019t any guns there except in the hands of the bad guy. You want to know what gun control is gonna do? You just saw it. <\/p>\n

Every one of these school shootings is a gun-free zone. The left has everything they want on these school campuses. No guns! And then when the shooter starts on his rampage, guess what it takes to shut it down? They gotta go find somebody with a gun and bring them in to take out the shooter. This is absurd. If the shooter had known there were guns on site, the odds are this might not have even happened. <\/line><\/p>\n

It\u2019s great to have you-with us Rush Limbaugh here at 800-282-2882 if you want to be on the program. It\u2019s Open Line Friday, which means have at it. Anything you want to talk about, fair game. You want to send an e-mail, ElRushbo@eibnet.com<\/a>. <\/p>\n

This bears repeating. Everything the liberals want, they already have at practically every school in this country. They have a gun-free zone. We had one security guard armed that was nowhere near the scene. Outside of that, no guns anywhere except in the hands of the bad guy. Hello, future. And at every one of these shootings this is the case. The good people are disarming themselves. The good people are believing all this hoi polloi that all they\u2019ve gotta do is get rid of guns and everybody will get rid of guns and bad people will become nice people, and we will be on our way to utopia. <\/p>\n

We have given them everything they want, and the evidence is clear it does not work. Gun-free zones do not save lives. They cost lives. And yet we have to listen to President Obama. Before we even knew the details, before we even knew how many were dead in Oregon, there\u2019s Obama once again calling for disarming good Americans and leaving them without any way to defend themselves against lunatics like this. <\/p>\n

The fact that this guy was targeting Christians, you can\u2019t find that in the Drive-By Media. No, that\u2019s a problem for the media, so they\u2019ve gotta find other ways to find other news that would seemingly be more important than that. There\u2019s all kinds of information about this shooter that\u2019s been gathered that tells us quite a bit about the guy and who his role models were and who his mentors were, the people that inspired him. And they\u2019re not anybody you\u2019d want to hang around. They\u2019re not anybody you\u2019d want in your house. They\u2019re not anybody you\u2019d want in your kids\u2019 schools. <\/p>\n

<\/a>The sports media was weighing in on this last night. Albert Breer, who is a reporter for the NFL Network, or maybe it\u2019s CBS. He used to be at the NFL Network. He may have moved to CBS and goes back and forth. Anyway, he tweeted last night<\/a> — and this, folks, this mind-set in this tweet is exactly where the Democrat Party and the American left is today. Quote, “I\u2019d say a 141 school shootings” — that\u2019s the stat that\u2019s going around, 141 school shootings in 138 days or something, whatever the stat is. The tweet is: “I\u2019d say 141 school shootings is evidence that the American public has blown its right to bear arms.”<\/p>\n

Oh, yeah, so we can blow our rights. We can overdo them. This is dangerous. Here we have an educated journalist who does not even understand the premise behind the Bill of Rights and doesn\u2019t seem interested in understanding the premise behind the Bill of Rights. This guy wants to turn the Bill of Rights upside down and use it as a way to limit and punish individuals, citizens, under the pretext that they have forfeited their rights. They didn\u2019t do anything here. They are the victims. This is absurd. The victims, the people who are dead are the people this sportswriter and others want to punish. <\/p>\n

The first reaction I had when I heard this happened yesterday, I can go back and play the sound bite if you want to, which I won\u2019t, but I was able to, experience guided by intelligence, I knew what was gonna happen here. That\u2019s what gets tiresome. What gets tiresome is we know what the reaction\u2019s gonna be. The left never learns. They don\u2019t want to learn. This is an opportunity — it\u2019s another thing that sickens me about this — this is an opportunity for them. They treat it as an opportunity. They almost get gleeful. <\/p>\n

It\u2019s on a par with a hurricane striking land. You notice they\u2019ve lost all the interest in the hurricane now. It\u2019s not gonna strike land. Well, not all interest. They\u2019re still trying to scare people in North Carolina and up the East Coast that the waves could be a little higher than usual. They\u2019ve got a rainstorm coming in from the west anyway, nothing to do with the hurricane, so they\u2019re still pummeling these people on the East Coast how bad it\u2019s gonna be. It could be Armageddon here, gotta go stock up the shelves. Never ends. Never ends. And the people that take it in the shorts in this country are the law-abiding innocent. They\u2019re the ones that get the blame. They\u2019re the ones we are told we have to disarm. They\u2019re the ones we are told present the problem. <\/p>\n

We even have a story, get this, Wolf Blitzer said on CNN that Obama was embarrassed of the United States in front of the world after the Oregon shooting. “As part of CNN\u00c2\u2019s live coverage Thursday night of the deadly community college shooting in Oregon, fill-in AC360 host Wolf Blitzer declared that President Barack Obama ‘was embarrassed of the United States in front of the world\u2019 when he commented on the tragedy and urged Americans to ‘politicize\u2019 mass shootings.<\/p>\n
