Mr President It Is a Gun Situation

Mr. President? You are wrong once again? You said that the tragic events in Texas?,Ohio, Virgina Beach And Las Vegas were not “gun situations” ?But rather were mental health problems And that in Texas if there had been no gun controls ?Perhaps fewer people would have died As the NRA says the only solution to a bad guy with a gun is a good guy with a gun Mr. President ?I know you a smart man? The smartest man in the world ?According to you Please contemplate this fact ?According to the latest findings ?It is a gun situation In fact, the reason the U.S. ?Has so many gun deaths? Is because we have so many guns ?45% of the worlds guns in fact And 33 percent of the world’s shooters ?Are Americans killing other Americans And most of them the majority of them? Are White men killing other people Minorities and women are almost never the shooters a strange metaphor but true Not Islamic terrorists? Most are in fact?Self-proclaimed Christians Somehow thinking that Jesus will approve of their actions and forgive them their sins Mr. President? When will you come to your senses And do what 90 percent of the public wants? Enact nation wide effective gun controls? And tell the NRA ?they can take their blood money elsewhere When Mr. President ?When will you act ?When will you take charge And become a President of the people ?Instead of the NRA's ? note: this may be too political and in your face but I don't care. I have had enough of this nonsense. We must stop the carnage in our streets! That’s my two cents worth and I am sticking to my guns pun very much intended.
