A few days ago there was a school shooting in Ohio, with three dead. Surprised I didn't see any memorial comments on Facebook. Perhaps people are like me and don't watch the news very often. My heart goes out to the families and to the school in this tragedy. How soon do we forget our history? and why do we allow for this to happen again? I don't care how responsible you think you are with guns, or how responsible you think your neighbor is, this is what guns do, they kill. I don't care how rare these events are, it happened. I'm sure the parents of the 17 year old thought they were responsible. Any argument of "don't let the few ruin it for the majority," I will call Bull Sh!t (sorry for swearing, but nothing less expresses my anger over that argument and this issue). After an event like this, anyone who still thinks they can support ownership of guns by the public has no respect from me. (if you want to go hunting, rent a gun for the trip and then return it)
True gun responsibility is not owning one. If you don't own one, then it can't be used for murder. If you own one, you are taking a risk, no matter how small, of it being used to extinguish the life of another Human. And if someone doesn't care that someone was killed, then that person is not Human.
Be responsible, be Human, do your part to end violence, don't own a gun, and vote in support of gun control. Gun control reduces the risk of kids being murdered.
