Unfortun...What happened in Florida is terribly sad. Unfortunately it seems to be happening too often. As you say, the facts are against gun owners. At least any guns that are only intended for shooting human beings. Like you, I have nothing against hunting. But the liberal gun laws of the States just provide for a gruesome statistic. No other "civilized" country has so many gun killings as USA per capita. We talk about a magnitude of two digits compared to any comparable country.Otto von Münchowhttps://munchow.wordpress.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6639676523379057364.post-38159652567858265062018-02-25T15:03:28.693-08:002018-02-25T15:03:28.693-08:00Thanks!

I think as long as politicians stick to their assigned speaking points they're refusing to actually discuss anything, yet still I hope for the meaningful conversations and compromise.Linda Hensleyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11929626735450807904noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6639676523379057364.post-88208965345386185162018-02-25T08:30:20.100-08:002018-02-25T08:30:20.100-08:00Your commentary is as terrific as the painting of ...Your commentary is as terrific as the painting of the tools. You are not the last moderate left in the US ... but it is so disheartening that even here in Florida, there are still very vocal politicians and constituents who are claiming that ANY restrictions on assault weapons is too much down the slippery slope. When will they realize that slope is being made even more slippery with the blood of our children and other innocents.<br />Korkinoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6639676523379057364.post-48812251388261245282018-02-24T12:54:30.736-08:002018-02-24T12:54:30.736-08:00Thanks!

We cannot understand families even owning guns and as you say how on earth can an ordinary civilian ever need an automatic weapon? It's madness. The kids in Florida are hopefully starting the long road to sort this out and find a solution to this horrendous problem, I admire them very much.Your tool kit is a good start!
