Poem
Poway, California~Passover Heartbreak 4/27/2019 I spent most yesterday in agony. Thinking of the hideous attack in Poway. A wonderful spring morning, Jews quietly intent to complete this last day of Passover at their synagogue How did they know, it would be a day full of fears, tears and lament. And, outstanding human compassion. America needs to fully understand, you cannot stop a madman with a gun with words. You, yourself, your husband and children may all perish! As you were brainwashed into thinking owning a gun is an evil thing. When lives are on the line, you may die, don't you get it? Thank God a Border Patrol agent was at the Tree of Life Service! Thank God even more so, he had a gun, Was able to take on the shooter who ran like a coward. The Rabbi, shot in his hand, had to have fingers amputated, To which a woman responded to me, " That's no big thing! " Is this what America has really shrunk down to..so heartless and cold? Many of you up in years understand clearly, this is statement brazenly bold. A Chabad woman with no gun, bravely stood in front of the Rabbi to save his life. It cost this outstanding woman her very own life. Which of us would perform such an act? A deed so spiritual with so huge an impact? The killer is detained, we all feel safe? We forgot Sri Lanka, a week ago? Of course, we did! Christians and Jews are all in danger. America needs to rise up and defend its own schools, churches, synagogues and homes and peoples. The lesson from the Third Reich and Hitler hauntingly remains.... The guns from the Jews were all taken. Once the government owns all guns, we are all forsaken. The Holocaust ensued, millions perished. Who thinks "Never Again"is impossible, Better think again. With heartfelt sympathy to the Jewish community in Israel and the Diaspora.
