A Fallacy of Notion

Smack the Naysayer upside the head far fewer would have been harmed had citizens not been disarmed -- Forefathers wise for Second Amendment which Naysayers habitually make defendant a necessary tool to keep safe even the fool preventing complete social upheaval while man, his soul, remains harbinger of evil!

yes, our forefathers were wise for including the 2d amendment, because, as you so aptly said, men can be evil and one has to defend one's self (and country) from the naysayers and evil-doers. Well said, Joe. enjoy your day, Sara

Hi Sara; if I can get a cricket out of my house without smashing it, I truly try. Last think in the world I want to do is harm any living thing. But to see an innocent child in harms way, a women or man unjustly, savaged treated, and do nothing to help is unthinkable to me. I have and would again put my own life in danger to save another, use any means and way available to me. Or I could not look myself in the mirror.

Good message, or reminder, here in this poem, Joe. The people that wrote and formed and signed the constitution, were evidently much wiser than those interrupting it these days. Thanks for sharing your mindful thoughts with us through your poetry, my friend. Write On! Bill

After the savage attack by Hamas, Israel is now allowing citizens to rearm themselves. Blessings my friend.

We never run short on fools -- product of our universities. Blessings my friend.
