The problem is guns. Not people. Guns. None of you 2nd Amendment folks will ever convince me otherwise.
Saturday I went to a Pride/ Family Togetherness Rally. Everywhere I looked I saw the happy, smiling faces of people who were enjoying each other’s company while celebrating who they truly are. And I looked everywhere, too, because I was watching for people who appeared out of place.
People like the 30-something white guy (a former high school teacher) that showed up at a rally held in a town an hour away and heckled the crowd while an Episcopal priest offered prayer. When confronted by members of the crowd, he pulled out a gun.
The NRA wants us to believe that all gun owners are responsible and have nerves of steel, but the stories I read daily about our well-regulated militia are enough to make your hair curl. Actually, It’s the Well Regulated Militia that share those stories on Twitter and Facebook (I strongly encourage you to follow this account).

I’m with you, brother. I am more apprehensive about walking through my WalMart than into the woods with all the snakes, alligators, bears and wild hogs.

At least the woodland creatures have some honor.

Yeah, and if they kill me it’s because they are hungry and not because they don’t like the way I talk.
