Happy Thursday Everyone!

[Cleo]

I live someplace with almost daily shooting. I've had a gun pulled on me three times and have actually been shot, very seriously, one of those times. Both my uncles were killed by guns. I've lost a few friends to shootings and know of at least one who is paralyzed from a gunshot.

I don't see any reason in our modern society to own a gun. On all the occasions that I have been a victim of violence having a gun would have not helped me at all.

As far as the right to bare guns then why not a cannon a or tactical nuclear weapon?

Our society glamorizes guns and they are looked on as a status symbol so they are used as a means to an end.

Guns don't kill people with guns kill and if they didn't have a gun then they would have to resort to throwing stones or maybe, just maybe, actually speaking to each other.
