We’ve Got A Problem With Guns And Faith

Jacksonville, Fla., city councilman Reggie Gaffney told a reporter on Sunday that Americans need to talk about gun control and getting closer with God after a shooting in his district Sunday afternoon.
“I think we’ve really go to ask ourselves two questions,” Gaffney told a local CBS/Fox affiliate shortly after reports of the shooting. “What are we going to do about guns? And we’ve really got to get focused on getting closer with the Lord.”
“I really think we’ve got a gun problem in America, I think we’ve got a gun problem in Jacksonville, and I think we’ve got a faith problem,” Gaffney said.
The councilman said he is “very sad and frustrated” after “the second shooting in less than 48 hours.”
Gaffney was likely referencing the shooting Friday night at a Jacksonville football game, which claimed the one life and sent two other Floridians to the hospital, an associate of the Florida Times-Union reported.
You’re suggesting that getting closer with God mean endorsing gun control. As I’ve pointed out Reggie, that’s opposite of the truth. I don’t have a problem at all – you’re the one who is confused.
What you should really be saying is that parents should be doing a much better job at raising their children, and turning our collective American back on the God of the Bible has turned out to be a really bad idea.
I don’t take cues from ignoramuses. Go do some study and pondering, Reggie.
