The world is reeling again after a “white nationalist” gunman opened fire on two Muslim mosques killing 49 worshipers and injuring dozens more in peaceful Christchurch, New Zealand halfway around the globe. News reports say the 49 Muslim homicides outnumber more than all other gun-related murders last year in this country.

There is no justification for such blatant and miserable hatred in New Zealand or anywhere else in the world, but there it is rearing its ugly head once again. So far this year in the USA there have been no serious mass killings, but that could change on any given day with “Breaking News … Active Shooter.”

The New Zealand slaughter of innocent Muslims praying to their God will obviously dominate world news for days to come. On Friday morning on CNN the haters were running at the mouth saying this is the kind of hate that comes from President Donald Trump that manifests itself in this shameful way. But the ‘never Trumpers’ are wrong as usual.

The White House quickly issued a statement of condemnation for the New Zealand Muslim murders, but it fell on deaf ears from mainstream media and the Washington Democrats who just go on and on with their own hatred of President Trump – who is the most misunderstood president ever.

Last week President Trump took control of the growing controversy involving the Boeing 737 Max jetliner after two unexplained crashes of this airplane that claimed more than 300 lives in foreign countries. After the U.S. Federal Aviation Agency said they did not have enough “data” to order the grounding of Boeing 737 Max airplanes, the president grounded the entire fleet of hundreds of these airplanes causing massive headaches for airline operators, airports and passengers. But the headaches would be far worse if another Boeing 737 Max slammed into the ground with more than 200 men, women and children losing their lives. In this case public safety won out over corporate profits by the leadership shown by President Trump.

It’s much the same situation with securing the southern border of the USA with Mexico. This entire issue of illegal immigration is about public safety and President Trump is 100-percent correct in fighting for added border securing measures as he seeks congressional approved funding to build more sections of border walls in places of high activity involving thousands of illegals attempting to entire the USA anyway they can. Those who deny that a national security emergency is ongoing at the southern border are blind as a bat.

The deranged self-described “white nationalist” that killed all those Muslims had a big problem with immigration of Muslims to New Zealand and he did what he did in response to his misguided beliefs.

There has been case after case of gunmen entering a church of some sort and opening fire on innocent lives as they practice their religion. It is abundantly clear that no place of worship is safe. People inside a church are sitting ducks to be preyed upon by crazy people with guns, bombs or machetes. There is every justification for any place of worship representing any religion to have armed guards at every entrance during their services. But any place where people gather for religion, sports, concerts or education is unsafe — period.

Sooner or later there probably will be another mass shooting of school children in America and that will cause even more attacks upon the gun industry and the 2nd-Amendment to the U.S. Constitution allowing for private gun ownership in the USA.

This issue will again confront President Trump who sooner or later must take control and show leadership where others have failed miserably. Yes, there are too many guns in the world in the hands of deranged and criminal minds with political objectives.

Many say the real national emergency in the USA is the availability of high-powered, military-style weapons like those used in New Zealand’s worst mass killing in history and just like the USA’s worst mass killing in recent history at that country music concert in Las Vegas in which nearly 60 people were gunned down dead.

It’s a dangerous world out there. It is not safe to be among large groups of people that are sitting ducks waiting to be picked off by hate induced gunfire. It is very possible that one of these days a weaponized flying drone will surely descend upon a football stadium, NASCAR race or outdoor concert and kill hundreds or thousands of Americans. Then what?
