But how do you have a rational discussion with people or groups that repeatedly demonstrate that they cannot tell the difference between the bad guys and the good guys?<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThey are so preoccupied with demonizing gun owners and eroding the Second Amendment that they have either lost sight of the goal of taking dangerous or deranged criminals off the street, or that was never their intention in the first place,\u201d Gottlieb said. \u201cIf all they can do is blame innocent citizens while diverting attention from murderous monsters, then it is time to ask these people just whose side they are on.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>I would love for someone from the anti-gun lobby to address Gottlieb&#8217;s question.\u00a0 Not going to hold my breath, though.\u00a0 Because answering that question would be like trying to explain why one faults auto owners, automakers and the auto lobby for the misdeeds of a drunk driver.\u00a0 Only with guns do they blame everyone but the responsible party.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_91909\" style=\"width: 970px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.gunsamerica.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/05\/Everytown.jpg\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"clickTracking\" campaign=\"anti-gunners-never-blame-murderer\" title=\"CCRKBA: How Come Anti-Gunners Never Blame the Murderer?\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-91909\" title=\"CCRKBA: How Come Anti-Gunners Never Blame the Murderer?\" class=\"size-full wp-image-91909\" src=\"https:\/\/www.gunsamerica.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/05\/Everytown.jpg\" alt=\"CCRKBA: How Come Anti-Gunners Never Blame the Murderer?\" width=\"960\" height=\"720\" srcset=\"https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/05\/Everytown.jpg 960w, https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/05\/Everytown-150x113.jpg 150w, https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/05\/Everytown-400x300.jpg 400w, https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/05\/Everytown-768x576.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 960px) 100vw, 960px\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-91909\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Anti-gun activists should pause to consider Gottlieb&#8217;s question.
