JUST HOW MANY MORE CHILDREN?

Just how many more children will it take to die by guns

Till guns are banned in U S of A?

A dozen , twenty seven, eighteen children, more died this day,

The count is still on going as I write this

Add them to the body count

The revolutionary wars are over , and you won

Yet some how I reckon you lost it

There really aren't words sufficient to describe a tragedy like this. My state has been the only one without a "concealed carry" law, i.e. a legal license to carry a concealed gun, and now the federal government is forcing us to pass such a law. There will be more tragedies to have no words for.

I live on Long Island, NY, which is right across the Sound from Connecticut where the killings occurred. Everybody here at work is stunned and saddened. The children who survived will be scarred for life. How young to have to witness such horror.

What can I say, Ken? This is a nation of people who aren't very smart. They're killed by the guns they buy to protect themselves, they tear up their constitution to keep imaginary Muslim hordes from stealing their freedoms, and they try to eliminate trade unions because they don't want to be exploited.
