Liberals' hatred of people leads to gun control

The hatred of people leads to gun control. I am talking about not the
shooter's hatred, but the gun controller's hatred.

Liberals have a reputation for caring about people -- an undeserved
reputation. They don't believe that people ought to live free and govern
themselves. Liberals like Harry Belafonte, Woody Allen, and Bill Maher have
openly advocated that President Obama take the authority of a dictator.
Observe how liberal celebrities such as Sean Penn gush over foreign dictators
like Hugo Chávez. How many of your liberal friends own a Che Guevara t-shirt
or poster? Liberals hate people so much that they do not trust them to
govern themselves.

That's basically true. I would put it another way. People say
they're in favor of all the freedoms we have in America, but they
don't really care about those they're not involved in or have an
interest in. They seem to feel that if some law, possibly even
unconstitutional, limits or takes away the freedom of others, it
doesn't matter to them. Politicians pass laws based on the support
of the groups that support and vote for them, instead of a logical
analysis of the situation.

They should all remember Martin Niemoeller's observations in Germany:
"They came first for the Communists, and I didn't speak up because I
wasn't a Communist. Then they came for the Jews, and I didn't speak
up because I wasn't a Jew. Then they came for the trade unionists,
and I didn't speak up because I wasn't a trade unionist. Then they
came for the Catholics, and I didn't speak up because I was a
Protestant. Then they came for me, and by that time no one was left
to speak up."
--Martin Niemoeller

Someone applied it to what's been happening in the U.S.
"When they took the fourth amendment, I did not speak up because I
had nothing to hide. When they took the fifth amendment, I didn't
speak up because I knew I was innocent. When they took the second
amendment, I didn't speak up because I don't own a gun. Now they are
taking the first amendment, and I cannot speak up at all."

Yeah but the overlying theme here is that essentially liberals/socialists
believe in slavery.
