GUN CONTROL

Is it right
In this world
To expose
Boys and Girls
To the madness of people
Who would kill for their evil?
VA Tech
Columbine
In our streets
Sniper Fire
Though we know how it happens
We won't put down our weapons
Why?
How does a teenage boy procure the might?
Bring death with arms that could not win a fight
The power in that steel he held brought pain never imagined
His Right?
9 Millimeters trusted to that mind
A background check determined it was fine
Now we should mourn the fact that we don't question any laws
All we are asking for is GUN CONTROL
There is a way for us
We can decide
All we are asking for is GUN CONTROL
Let's make our country safe for human rights

I wrote this in response to the Virginia Tech shootings. The entire day was spent in anguish, worrying about the safety of Caitlin Crowley and her mother, Joan. Fortunately she is OK, but a girl she went to high school with in Springfield, Leslie, was murdered.

Heston thinks he is Moses, sitting at the top of the NRA lobby. Unfortunately, people like them allow the GUN lobby to CONTROL congress. That's about the only kind of control happening. Damn 2nd Amendment. RIP all the victims @ VT, Iraq and everywhere people are responsible for using GUNS to eliminate other people.

There is more terrorism in your back yard... except it's not being reported.

People with self-control would be a good thing too.
