We know the drill, we know the yada yada yada on cable news and in the major newspapers.
The gun loving, miserable self-loathing man in the wheelchair in Texas will say we all grieve and then talk to the NRA convention in Houston this week (yhea, the wonderful irony, the NRA is holding its annual in Houston: Think there will be reporters and cameras all over that convention of murderers? Oh yhea.)
Well the rest of this this won’t be long and certainly not eloquent but profane, it will be profane.
Fuck the second amendment and fucking get rid of it – not possible in this lunatic country.
Confiscate the fucking guns, every last fucking one and melt them down, melt them down – not possible in this lunatic country.
Fuck every last person who has a gun in his or her home, every single one of them, including the ones you know, the ones I know – who we don’t even know have them – good luck with that.
This country is lost and done and gone and that’s just the way it is.
Is there anything else to say? Oh sure about the Republicans, the NRA, Joe Manchin, the south, the crazy mountain west, all of that.
But it all reduces to this: 14 children in grades 2, 3 and 4 died today because this country is lost, done, finished, failed, failed, failed, failed as a nation.
Anyone have a better answer? I’m all ears.

Well Carl, you are so absolutely „ fucking“ right. This country is so bad, I feel like moving back to Europe! I did watch and hear Stephen Colbert though a few days ago interviewing the New Zealand Prime Minister about the GUN PROBLEM – and her answer astounded me and is something we should
listen to!!!
In New Zealand they made it a law that everybody WHO OWNED A GUN had to return it and the GOVERNMENT PAID THEM FOR IT. THEN ALL THOSE GUNS WERE DESTROYED!
Exceptions were made for people who really needed it for their jobs.
What do you think about that? I had tears in my eyes, because this seemed the first realistic solution
to me! AND IT IS SO „ fucking“ NEEDED!

Thank you Geri and I hope this finds you well. But you know we cannot adopt the New Zealand solution. We have that awful, outdated thing called the 2nd Amendment. Were it up to me, would confiscate all the guns and melt them down. But that we cannot do. In fact we, the United States, cannot do a thing. No law will pass, the Republicans will make sure of that.
