Three heinous incidents in about a week: the murder of a pastor during services, the killing of a family in Miami, and the rampage in Alabama. Anyone else appalled by this senseless violence? Or have we become hardened to this sort of occurrence because of the frequency with which it happens? I hope not. This violence is and remains contradictory to life, to prosperity, and well-being.
Do you think the founders of our country had this is mind when they allowed for "the right to bear arms" for the forming of a militia? Now before we all get our undies in a knot, I'm not proselytizing for the removal of all guns (though in my heart I know this may not be such a bad idea), but why do we make it so easy for people like these men -- obviously ill -- to get guns, use them, and wreak havoc? To chisel away at the underpinnings of our peace, our society, our future? There has to be a better way...
