Another mass shooting. More useless death, more innocent lives
lost, more children with dads or moms.
More spouses without what they thought would be lifelong partners. We for the common good and the love of God,
must stop this. A report just out tells
us what we already know (in hearts and minds) -
"Guns do not make a nation safer; say US doctors who have
compared the rate of firearms-related deaths in countries where many people own
guns with the death rate in countries where gun ownership is rare."
The report in the prestigious American Journal of Medicine,
debunk the historic belief among many people in the United States that guns
make a country safer, they say. On the contrary, the US, with the most guns per
head in the world, has the highest rate of deaths from firearms, while Japan,
which has the lowest rate of gun ownership, has the least.
Pray for the victims of today and for the victims of tomorrow,
until we realize that we do not need to be the most heavily armed people in the
world.
