As a general rule, on G+ I try to avoid writing about politically oriented stuff because it gets me so riled up. It’s also why I have to strictly limit my FB time.
But what I see happening in the USA right now truly frightens me. The more gun violence there is, somehow the solution for that is……..MORE guns? WTF!?!? Did we learn nothing from Ghandi, Martin Luther King, Jesus, the Buddha, or any other teachers of peace?
Do the “Christians” on the right somehow believe that Jesus would approve of them supporting the use of guns? What Bible are they reading?
The only thing that more guns creates is more guns. The USA is no longer the Wild West, and we don’t need weapon-wielding people everywhere at all times.
When will we learn? How many innocent children have to die, like the 7yo shot last week by a family friend? Or any of these?
No, more guns will only create more gun violence.
