Guns, Guns, Guns

Another mass shooting, but why should we bother about it? After all, it's other people's husbands, wives, brothers, sisters, fathers, mothers, children, grand-parents, aunts, uncles, and cousins who were killed, not ours because we're immune--aren't we?

Fio is feeling a little odd about it all because a couple of days ago, she suddenly realized no one was talking about the mass murders anymore, leaving a time-space vacuum open for a new one. Let's all keep track of the rhythm this time--six weeks, a month?

The whole situation infuriates Fiorella because it doesn't have to be that way. Australia, Britain, and Canada have instituted gun control so why can't the United States? The country is civilized. Pop doesn't need to go out in the woods and shoot a possum for dinner anymore.
*
It's not just the mass murders. It's the children-on-children shootings, the accidental shootings, the murders by people who should have never been allowed near any kind of weapon. We are all at risk.

What can we do, other than move to Canada? Fio, you will remember, led a walk around the local courthouse to protest mass shootings, a while back, but, as you can tell from the news, she didn't have much of an impact so it looks like it back to the polls again. Vote for any candidate who supports guns control and save your friends, your family, and yourself from the next round of senseless shootings.
