Amendment to the Amendment

The right to bear arm's

The moment you pick up or
decide to purchase or own
a gun

In so doing you became a killer

Because bullets and guns don't kill

The people who buy them 
and own them do

It's a choice without defense

Yeah you see Christopher here’s the dilemma, a lot of people who buy these guns say they’re for their own protection that’s the defense, I know a mad contradiction, but there you have it, the spiral continues, cheers David

Yes just like in South Africa David. Again not a one size fits all poem more a wish list or logic based one but in reality very different such a shame And unfortunately statistics show more people are killed with there own weapons and guns than others sadly
