(76,260 posts)Yes, it is the guns. Period, end of story. Nobody can be shot with a gun if their is no
gun there with which to shoot them with. If we have such a problem with mental illness
why is the NRA fighting so hard to make it easy for mentally ill people to get guns?
I am sick to death of people yammering about their "Constitutional Freedoms with double
heaping scoop of Liberty Berries on top" and those freedoms are from their 2nd amendment
right to keep and bear arms which has resulted in a proliferation of guns which in turn has
caused a proliferation of gun deaths. What about my 1st amendment right to peacefully
assemble such as taking my child to school, or going to movie, or Xmas shopping? That
right is being pissed on by gun nuts and the NRA who have made it too easy to get guns
same as all of our basic rights from the preamble to the Declaration of Independence about
life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness which all go to shit when somebody is murdered w/
a gun.
Since Sandy Hook we have had more gun deaths then the U.K., Ireland, Germany, Poland, Norway,
Sweden, Canada, Japan, Australia, and New Zealand have in a whole year.
I have hunted and owned guns for over 30 years and I am sick of this shit. If you can not change
after seeing 20 babies murdered then I am not comfortable with the idea of you owning just
1 gun let alone many of them along with assault weapons because I see a love of "the gun" in you
far greater then a love for your fellow man."
But I will see you the very next time when (not if) we have another mass public shooting trying
to distract from the simple but very true idea ..... IT IS THE GUNS.
