I Know, I Know
I realize without radical changes in government, in the greed of the wealthiest among us and in our paranoid national mindset, we will never implement more restrictive gun laws. Guns are part of our culture, and will, no doubt, remain so for many years to come. I’m not opposed to this, except when guns are […]
