Person With the Gun
Person With the Gun
Juts received an email message about gun control.
Here is my response.
People should never own any gun unless
There is a way to straighten out this mess
Looked down street and saw some fools
Losing their cools and then fighting duels.
Discovered a shooting which was drive by
Bring many sad tears to a person's eye
Someone was not aware that gun was loaded
Another person killed when it accidentally exploded.
There were some hunters in a frost covered field
And the front lead one should have kneeled
What happened next is what we often do dread
Hunter had been shot in back and found dead.
To many of you this may only sound mental
With no emotion about shooting being accidental
After another killing had again been done
It was because of someone who had a gun.
I am sure that there are positives and negatives on both
sides of the issue. I just feel like there are more positives
regarding gun control though. Check in Switzerland's gun
to death ratio sometime. Only law enforcement and military
people are allowed to have weapons there. And, of course
you know why. They know what they are doing and have
been properly trained and weapons are part of their
profession. James Thomas Horn, Retired Veteran and Poet..
How about a category for weapons.
