Bring Your Gun

Coming to the city? Bring your gun
So you can shoot at anyone!
Target practice is such fun;
No laws will you be bending.

All those rules you used to shun 
Have been rescinded; they are done!
Lawsuits have been filed and won
To honor those amending.

Bearing arms makes bad guys run;
You’ll protect your wife and son. 
Don’t believe what some have spun;
You’ll mostly be defending.

In New York, now everyone
Beneath the moon or in the sun 
Can carry through the streets a gun
Since sanity is ending.

The legal way to sanity is repealing the obsolete second amendment

Unbelievable! Incredible! The stupidity is astounding! Ilene, thanks so much for this poem. Alas, some fools will not recognize it as satire and sarcasm and will bring their AK15s to protect themselves.....

Blows you away, doesn't it? SCOTUS have made us the laughing stock of the world! To quote West Virginia's Attorney General, the EPA, "It isn't about Climate Change! It is about hamstringing American business!" More guns will most certainly result in more airheads! Aloha!
