IN DENIAL
People fire; bullets kill
More guns; more deaths
Fewer guns; lives spared
Deny guns; support life.
Guns stop; people talk
People talk: answers found.

A great and wise write Michael. Like the wooden fish in the pic too!
Thanks Orchi
Nero is obsessed with learning the fiddle
Very true Michael, but some just do not understand or want to understand.
Thanks Andy - and Rome continues to burn.
Clipped and powerful these lines complete the circle of wisdom Michael. - - Great first read of my morning.
Thank you Fay - the whole issue continues to totally perplex me. Thankfully here in the UK we don't have this problem and ever may it be so.
Michael - my town had an infamous school shooting (Newtown) but it made no difference to the NRA. There is a violent streak in this country (US) that is sick beyond redemption. I truly believe if we had a coliseum, they'd offer us killing games for a month to celebrate.
Thanks Lorna - my heart goes out to all those affected by yet another terrible tragedy - I only hope sense eventually prevails.
Maybe when the young ones become the politicians - they are growing up differently - perhaps smarter.
TRUMP is still on the THRONE
And he will not dent HIS OWN
No extra BOBBY ~ but a big GUN LOBBY
The result in FLORIDA shown !
Thanks for caring & sharing MIKE
There are 326 Million Americans
There are 326 Million Guns
Draw your own conclusions !
Yours Peacefully ~ BRIAN
And per capita there are 30 gun deaths in the States compared to one in the UK - it's a no-brainer.
Little gem!
Thanks M
A true gem of wisdom you have produced here sir! Begs the question why do so many lives have to be lost before the inevitable talks begin.
On a lighter side, no point in banning guns - its the ammunition which kills.
Thanks dusk - and in the meantime Rome is still burning.
Michael,
A poignant message!
Thank you!

Thank you Laura - my heart goes out to our American friends.
Michael, I could not have said it better myself! Seems to me the USA are regressing back to the days of the wild west. Guns should be made illegal. Period.
Thanks so much Fred - from this side of the pond it seems completely baffling. And for Trump to stand up and say he is going to do something about mental health without even a mention of guns is so bizarre it's worthy of a goon show script.
