The Second Amendment of the Constitution of the United States
A well regulated militia, being necessary to the security of a free state, the right of the people to keep and bear arms, shall not be infringed.
Guns. Personally, I do not use them. My resource of self-defense is a quick wit. Of concern for my safety, some ask, "Aren't you afraid of being alone out in the streets of downtown. To those who express concern, my sister says, "I don't worry about Patty. I worry about the people who encounter Patty on the streets."
Guns. I do not use them. Yet....many people do.
Foraging for food. Hunting for animals. Protecting oneself. Protecting one's home.
How do we aim--how do we control--guns to hit their target. Food. Animals. Oneself. One's home.
Training--target practice. Daily hunting limits. Gun locks.
How do we control the numbers--the amount of ammunition purchased, the rounds of ammunition used? Can we engage law enforcement personnel? Can we capture enforcement/conservation officers? Can we embrace the Department of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms, and Explosives? Can we open our ears to hear the Director of Homeland Security?
Decibels. How many? Ammunition. How many rounds?
What do we need? When will we act?
Peace. May the peace of Christ be with you. Peace. Love. Faith. Hope, and Love, and the greatest of these is Love.
