I read something earlier that there is no battle anymore about any kind of decent restrictions on gun ownership. once America decided it was OK for children to be gunned down instead of outlawing assault weapons, the battle was over. they won. if congress didn't act after Sandy Hook, no way they will care because a bunch of 'queers' got what was coming to them. who needs terrorists to bring down the great satan. we are doing it ourselves.ellen abbotthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00535475792150335186noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2086296370004835655.post-3726201917767126892016-06-13T19:38:11.555-04:002016-06-13T19:38:11.555-04:00I cannot believe that things in the usa can get an...I cannot believe that things in the usa can get any worse ,and then i remember trump,and despair that things can get much worse.I thought the country stood for freedom ,there is no freedom to live and let live ,only follow the bigots and haters .I have never felt such sadness.anniehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02317224288505465554noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2086296370004835655.post-15996488268798640802016-06-13T16:22:32.245-04:002016-06-13T16:22:32.245-04:00I have not felt sadder in a long time.

I am literally kind of paralyzed.<br /><br />I hope that people keep in mind that this is the action of a single, violent individual, not a religion or culture. (Well, beyond fringe extremism, which is dangerous in ANY religion or culture.) And that OUR political culture helped allow it to happen.Steve Reedhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11684120060438252945noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2086296370004835655.post-10291260903297965332016-06-13T12:37:10.673-04:002016-06-13T12:37:10.673-04:00This comment has been removed by the author.Steve Reedhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11684120060438252945noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2086296370004835655.post-91041615467226370232016-06-13T11:30:18.545-04:002016-06-13T11:30:18.545-04:00It is dark.
