How many have heard a senior citizen say "I am glad I am living now as I would not want to be the children of today who have to deal with what we are leaving behind"? Let's not be fooled by the corrupt intellectuals who preach that gun controls will fix our problems but rather re-establish values that return us to a great society.  |
There are many things in your post I agree with, but the main thing I disagree with in your post is the I know if NO ONE that believes gun control will FIX the problem. It will help. A little or a lot, it will help.
Background checks won’t fix the problem but they will help.
And while we debate, children die.
What would you change today that will help the problem and save a child’s life?
