Your last paragraph - you said it all way better than I could! Especially your last sentence.

Yeah, I really went off on a rant there, but I'm so tired of reading about mass shootings, and I'm tired of gun nuts and pseudo-Christians and their rhetoric. They just pushed me over the edge today.

They are scary too. I keep meaning to write about a run-in I had with one of them.

Spot on rant. Spot on. *hugs* There is never enough time to do it right, but always time to do it over, they say. Well, there is never enough time to talk about gun control & mental health care, but always enough time to deal with the tragedies the lack of them create. Enough. *more hugs for making people think... and maybe care*

Who the hell really needs assault weapons anyhow? Just doing something about the rapid-fire, huge-number-of-rounds weapons would cut down on these things. It makes it harder to kill as many people.

I respect proper hunters. I do believe some people are safer with guns than without (mostly women with violent stalkers). But some common sense-- there is never going to be a time we need sub-machinegun capability. If you want to fight the U.S. Government with your guns-- the unmanned drones won't stop coming. Meh.

Agree with your rant- I feel the same way. On a happier note, I got your Christmas card today and love it! and the pic of you and J is wonderful. You look great! Thank you, dear Maddie!
