i can agree with the 1st couple of sentences, but not the last. For one thing, a GENERALIZATION that ALL (100%) politicians are not trustworthy.......essentially makes no sense. All people that vote are picking SOME trustworthy politicians. Then, invoking the word "gun" seems too over the top. Then, finally. use of the word "HIS", which could have been "their" because it is IMPORTANT to remember that women can ALSO become politicians.
This might seem like "nitpicking" to some, but words and language are powerful and show the attitudes of the writer.
