According to the Childrens defense fund, 4 children die of abuse, 5 commit
suicide, and 7 are killed by guns every day of the year.
I found the article about the teacher shooting himself in the foot sad. How many accidents are going to happen now that red states are letting teachers carry guns?
Columbine had 2 armed guards at the school the day the monsters came.
Could children have been saved at Sandyhook, if someone was there
to shoot back?
There would have to have been more than one person there with a semi-automatic.
My bet is they would have had a gate around the school, and the killer would have had
to deal with the guards before he got in to kill people.
As a parent of two mentally ill sons, I've learned they can still plan anything that they
want to do, if they want to bad enough.
Our nation may someday have every public building have metal detectors, I mean
grocery stores, churches, and Court houses.
Violence is accepted in television, movies, games, even in music. You can show a murder
on television, but not a woman's breast.
Let's start having less violence in the media, lets allow care givers the right to put their
loved ones in a hospital for treatment, even if that child, adult child, doesn't want to
be helped.
If a person commits crime with a gun, add twenty years to
their sentence. No parole allowed for people with guns.
All drugs should be legal. prisons would hold mostly people who murder
and do violent crime. Hospitals would treat people using. If you refused treatment
you would be allowed no benefits. Cops could concentrate on more important things.
Name a drug, any drug, I can find it within a day. The richest towns
in America, Have just as many dugs as poor cities.
I am opening up a conversation that needs to be talked about. If we keep doing
the same thing, we will see things get worse.
My life is measured in months, Please plan for a new society with new problems.
Work from this moment on for a new America were all will be working to make
a society we can be proud of.
