How about this:
Our thoughts and prayers
are with the victims
and their families.
How about this:
Guns don’t kill,
people do.
How about this:
Let this atrocity send a message
that it’s time to put a stop to all of this.
How about this:
This carnage must come to an end;
our children deserve to be safe
How about this:
It’s time our political leaders
stepped up to the plate.
How about this:
It’s my right to own a gun
How about this:
We must protect the second amendment.
Our founding fathers had it right.
How about this:
We must insure that our constitution,
any constitution,
remains frozen in time.
How about this:
Our firearms industry needs to grow
and flourish, consider jobs and profits.
How about this:
We must arm ourselves to the teeth,
the bigger the better
How about this:
Let’s consider a few small changes;
one step at a time.
How about this:
What a concept!
How about this:
Doesn’t this sound a little repetitive?
