Learning the meaning of it all..

What a disappointment. No bending and no mending. Yes we need to look at and do something about violence in video games, but nothing else except more and bigger guns in the hands of good guys? Who are the good guys and how do we know they will not end up with the bad guys? 40% of gun sales occur in secondary markets (black markets unaccounted for). Nothing about better checks and waiting periods. Nothing about war grade assault weapons that can spray 100 bullets a minutes. A gun homicide somewhere every 20 minutes mostly with illegal weapons. They have lost it and lost a chance for a modicum of respect.

Positive statement from NRA, the god of guns. Let's hope they have meaningful reflection in the coming days on the "wellness" and "regulation" aspects of the constitutional "well regulated militia". Looking forward to bending of minds in the Fri news conference.

Honor the victims -- with action

God help America wean itself from the fallacy of law-abiding good citizens owning assault weapons making the society a safe place to live. Exactly one such snuffed out the sweet innocent smiles of so many little ones and senseless loss of adult lives caring for them and protecting them.

Arms, Liberty and Civility
