How on earth was this law spun?

Many agree that we need guns.

But not for killing!

All the blood we're spilling,

can never ever be undone.

    Well put and poignant. I don't have to live under the yoke of the US Second Constitional Amendment (thank God!) but it's far ranging consequences touch all of us. Did the US Founding Fathers really mean everybody has the right to wander around with concealed glocks and brandish kalashnikovs? I know, none of my business, but the endless heartbreak is! 💔

    Yeah, I wish rap music didn't promote gun violence. In the early days having the right to bear arms was a way for the civilian population to protect themselves from the government, especially if the military was a ever made to take hostile action unjusticely so against the civilian population.

  • Thoughtful ❤️💯✨👍
