Aren’t you all getting sick and tired
of hearing/seeing news to the tune of
a pathetic white man with a gun?
Aren’t you all sick and tired
of seeing children murdered
in cold blood?
Aren’t you all sick and tired
of seeing college students
and adults
murdered in cold blood?
Aren’t you all sick and tired
of minorities being gunned down
because they are minorities?
Aren’t you all sick and tired
of pathetic white men being called lone wolves
and mentally ill because of the color of his skin,
and making the stigma that actual mentally ill people
are violent even worse than it already is?
Aren’t you all sick and tired
of being afraid for your life,
your child’s lives,
your friends and family
that are minorities?
Because, as a mentally ill minority,
I sure as hell am.
As a transgender person,
a WHITE transgender person,
my life expectancy is already only 40.
And that’s not because I’ll kill myself.
America is going to drown
in the spilled blood and grief from children,
adults, and minorities being murdered,
because people place their right
to carry assault weapons
OVER OUR LIVES.
Children should not have to go through active shooter drills.
Parents should not be involuntarily outliving their children.
Minorities should not have to fear for their lives.
There is SUCH AN EASY SOLUTION TO THIS.
It’s not rocket science.
It’s gun control laws.
No one wants to take away your guns.
We just want to live.
Please.
We just want to live.
