My thoughts exactly. Well said. Kudos to you.
I know, though that you are taking some blow-back. I did when I replied to a gun piece.
Here're a couple changes you might consider -
30 day wait instead of 3
AR 15, not 14
ban large capacity magazines for all semi-automatic weapons
eliminate all gun show exemptions
stiff penalties for violation
Thank you for writing a very well thought out piece.

    6 stars mean a lot to me and especially so when they are earned by an opinion piece that means a lot to me. Thanks so much for reading in its entirety and sharing your encouraging review. Some changes will be made. ann

This is extremely well thought out and developed in a logic way and I agree with everything you say. The only thing I would add is the anyone in congress who disagrees with the majority of the public and who stalls or votes against this should be voted out of office. They are afraid of the gun lobby but I hear the NRA is about bankrupt anyway. I hope we put them our of business.

    Amen, Sister!!! lol Thanks so much for the shiny '6'. I really appreciate your reading it. I know it is long and, at some point, I'm afraid my readers get tired of listening. I am so very, very happy that you did not. I so hope people will take note of how their reps and their senators vote and listen to what their governors and Lt. governors are saying. Sometimes, I am appalled when I hear Senator Cruz (I live in Texas) and think he has children and he's willing to do and say the things he does. thanks again. ann

This is a very well-written logical commentary on the gun control problem in this country. Kudos to You! When citizens and politicians place the rights of an 18-year-old to buy assault weapons and ammo over the rights of a bunch of elementary kids and teachers to live. There is evil in the country. Exceptional! Terry.

    I am always pleased with '6's and especially so from you. This piece long, but I needed to saying and, if it gets read, okay and if it does not, I'm sorry. Again, thanks so much for the exceptional review. ann

I agree with you a hundred percent, Ann. And even conservative Supreme Court Justice Warren Burger said that bizarre use of the second amendment a fraud. It's the gun lobbyists who are behind it. So glad you wrote this!!

    And I am so glad you read it!. I appreciate the positive review and your time to read a very long post. There's time, but it is getting shorter. We must listen and act. Again, thanks. ann

Hello, my friend Ann. I had to read the entire piece, and I'm sure everyone else will. This has many plausible facets and suggestions that I am totally on board with, Ann. The problem stands that there are no real solutions; that being said (and I know we have to start somewhere), the number of assault weapons already in the hands of these lunatics is of a proportion we can't even imagine. I came to the conclusion years ago that we are beyond the point of no return. I haven't given up on finding a way out of this; I've given in that it won't be soon enough for our children, seemingly the number one targets of mass shooters. Best, JohnC

    Thanks so much for reading and for commenting. Indeed, the job is immense ... as if every job left undone for too long. Still, even if we could not do it, we must try; how else to we live with ourselves? AND, being the eternal optimist, I KNOW we can do it. God helps those who help themselves, right? lol. Thanks so much for the positive review. ann

    I agree. We can't stop trying, but God needs to pitch in a bit more, lol. I always enjoy your writes, Ann.

Very much appreciated! I hope many will read this here and beyond! You've made and laid out your points so very well. I'm so glad you reference the All In the Family episode! This essay reads quickly and easily because of it's style and concise arguments and presentation. Thanks!

PS ("As a moral nation dedicated to the right to life and liberty..." It's what I was raised to believe about us, but at times I find myself wondering whether we aren't the wicked nation that needs to repent its evil ways.)

    I don't know how this is going to be received on Fanstory, but it is what I believe. And, I just know if my heart that I'm right on this. Thanks so much for your very positive review. It feels good to know there are people out there who agree. ann
