It's past time for some gun control in this country of ours. When are people going to wake up and realize that this isn't a good thing for our country. Innocent people, children, are dying because of the gun happy people we have in this country of ours. Yes I have used the word country alot because that's what I am talking about. Out of control guns and gun ownership in our country!
The NRA has gotten out of control for one thing. It is beyond my comprehension how any human could not be touched in some way by this tragic occurrence in Charleston SC and the horrible tragedy in Newtown. This is just one example of what I mean: "National Rifle Association board member Charles Cotton blamed Clementa Pinckney, a state senator and pastor at Emanuel African Methodist Episcopal Church, for his own death and for the death of his parishioners in Charleston this week, Thinkprogress reports. " Where is this man's moral compass?! Blame everyone and everything except the homegrown Terrorist Thug and the gun he was using! It's not the same NRA that it was back in the day. Now it is a Political Powerhouse! It's time to take them down!!
It is my opinion the ONLY reason to have a gun is that you intend on killing someone or something. Think about it. Some people say they get a gun for protection...well if someone tries to hurt you what are you going to do...shoot them. Some people say they get a gun for target practice...well when you do shoot at targets what are you doing...executing a shoot to kill tactic. Some people say I got a gun to shoot skeet...well what are doing when you shoot those skeet..yep a shoot to kill tactic. Some people say they get a gun to go hunting...well when you go hunting what do you do...shoot and kill an animal. Violence and destruction and guns go together!
I will never forget the comment made by Wayne LaPierre Executive VP of the NRA after the Sandy Hook Elementary shooting in Newtown Connecticut almost 3 years ago when he had a press converence. Link: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sandy_Hook_Elementary_School_shooting
"The only thing that stops a bad guy with a gun, Is a good guy with a gun." More guns that is NOT the answer. The sad thing about that is that so many people agreed with him because the gun sales rose!!
It seems the only time people get all riled up about gun control is when a tragedy happens. My thoughts are that if nothing happened when our children of Newtown were massacred then nothing will ever happen to curve this country's need for guns!! What does this say about our country? It says plenty.
These are my Thoughts and Feelings from Jillsville
I dedicate this blog to all those that have lost their lives to gun violence at the hands of a homegrown Terrorist Thug(s) Rest In Peace
