Love From the Uk

This morn I woke before the sun The sky was dark and menacing Just like the man who yesterday Shooting his gun indiscriminately Those innocent lives he took away A massacre after a bright sunny day Mass killings are now three hundred and seven Of innocent souls who are now in heaven In days now totaling three hundred and eleven These evil creatures instigating Armageddon There is nothing I can really say but wish they’d take those guns away On this deeply sad, traumatic day My thoughts are in the USA I send my love and hope and pray that you will all keep safe today Written after another mass shooting headlined our News Bulletins 9th November 2018

I keep saying if the media does not stop glorifying the coward-bully who is the perpetrator, we are all doomed. Do not tell us about the coward-bully's life, do not give us his photos from childhood and tell us how sad it was. Do not give him a name. Just say "a coward-bully" walked into a ....and. It is so sad that weak people who have nothing else see this as an avenue to fame, Ann. Thank you for thinking of us. We should all protest the media for making the c-b so visible.
