Ar-15

When did children become a national target How can this insidious slaughter be met Can we ban the AR 15's For our toddlers and our vulnerable teens Will a national revolution Provide a lasting solution I accept the need for amendment two But surely... An additional provision is due For the sale and carry of the AR 15 Surely, the stiffest penalty should be seen For 20 years the violence has seen an increase Political partisans should be released Restore our schools and youth to peace Every day is a new debate While we watch it escalate

Just horrific what is happening in schools in the States with the shootings. Australia has it's share of violence, but thankfully no shootings like in American schools...the fact that there is talk of teachers being taught how to shoot and to hold guns...what a very sad sorry world we have become and the children are becoming conditioned to violence, death and bloodshed in the schoolyard and classroom. Short yet powerful writing Donna.

GREAT poem on the subject. The NRA will see us all die before tough restrictions on guns are placed.
