I've given up. I won't talk about it, I won't argue about it, I won't write letters or make phone calls. Let them have their fucking guns. I can't protect myself or those I love against being shot, but it doesn't improve the quality of my life to spend any time or effort in trying to change this situation. These guys have won, and we lost. If the murder of elementary school children didn't cause us to change our gun laws, nothing will.
