Batman Massacre

It surprises me and possibly even makes me angry, that people today aren’t as shocked as they might be. Last night when the newest installment of the Batman movies premiered, a man with four assault rifles opened fire in a movie theatre in Colorado. Twelve human beings were killed while reports of over fifty others remain injured. Children of ages 6, 9 and 13 were shot in the massacre. A six year old child was shot. In our country. The country we pride ourselves on. I’m not going to preach about gun laws and permits because I know that even if I scream it no one will listen. At least no one who supports the hand gun and firearms laws. I don’t believe in guns, I don’t believe in what they stand for, what they do or what they’re supposed to do. That is my own opinion and it is not likely that I will change my mind. It’s just as unlikely for people who carry handguns or hold gun permits to change their minds about using their firearms for protection. This is not what I want to get at....
