Yet another mass shooting. I can’t get it off of my mind. I try to keep politics off my blog but I don’t think this is a totally political issue, it is a people issue. We as people need to rise up and say ENOUGH! Like President Obama said “Our thoughts and prayers are not enough.”
Per The Washington Post in an article from October 1 –
So far in 2015, we’ve had 274 days and 294 mass shootings – And of course, there’s the broader universe of nearly 10,000 people killed and 20,000 wounded in nearly 40,000 gun violence incidents so far this year.
I understand you may hunt and need a rifle for that, you may want a handgun for your own protection. This guy had five pistols and one rifle, and they found him tied to 7 more guns. Others have had assault rifles. Why? I will never understand what any private citizen needs an assault rifle or has to own so many guns. My view on gun control may be different than yours but everyone has to admit than these senseless killings have to stop. There must be some way to do something. We see that doing nothing solves nothing. Add your voices to the cause, write your Representatives in the House or the Senate and tell them to act. SAY ENOUGH!
This video was made after Newtown and we are still waiting for a plan!
I hadn’t done a Random Thoughts post for awhile and
I hope this doesn’t offend anyone.
