I watched it all unfold
last Friday
In a small town
America
he most senseless
killings
I listened
and the tears started flowing
I thought of my kids
now grown
with kids
of their own
I can't help but wonder
how they felt
this morning
when they kissed
their kids
and watched
them walk out
and go to school
How did they feel?

Maybe more importantly
how did the kid feel?

It was something
you could not avoid knowing
Even if you
turned the tv off
it was all anyone was
talking about

If kids ask question
answer them
and be very careful
kids are notoriosly
intuative
they pick up fear
instantly

So....
Shouuld the teachers
have guns and ammunition
in their desks?

Is this country
that sick?
Should 5 years olds
go to school
armed with a gun
in their little backpack?

That's what
I read
to give an innocent
child a gun
ready to defend
yourself and your
friends

This country
cannot santion
behaviour
like that

But...
they are SCARED
that is ALL
they saw since Friday

A five year old,
packing a live gun
is not a plesant picture
etched in my mind

While it is true
that a gun by itself cannot
kill

But think about it
Would you truely
send your child
to school
with a gun?

NOT ME

BUT...
reality is
other parents would

Do you want to explain
how that gun went off?

Was it truely an accident?

There are a lot
of "bad men"
out there

...and I don't care
that the NRA
is powerful

The words have been misinterpreted
THey are
"guns for a well regulated MALITIA"

I don't believe it says
every loonetic should buy
enough guns to kill
teachers and school children

My G-d
my 18 month old
grandson
could buy a gun
and ammuition
to go on
never seen before
killing spree

Yes, this was phychotic act
but it will reapeat itself
until SOMEONE
has enough guts
to ammend that law

I'm mad

close to 30
innocent souls were killed
in a sleepy little town
My Grandson does not want to
go to school
My daughter
who does not cry
is hysterical
she does not want
to send her kid
to school

Stop this madness

You cannot legally own a gun
in Canada
....or Britian...
They have it right
