Prayers and Condolences to the Families in this Tragedy

Our prayers and condolences are extended to the families of this tragedy in Henderson, Kentucky. I can't begin to feel your pain, but am praying for comfort and support for each of you experiencing the loss and the shock.

It hits close to home, as my hubby works in a similar industry, as a supervisor, and in the past 12 months this company had an employee altercation, that although without physical injury involved a physical altercation between employee and employee relatives in the parking lot. It was my husband's job to control the situation, being the only supervisor on duty.

It is a reminder that there is evil everywhere, and people need to be thinking about how to protect their loved ones every day. You may not be a proponent of guns for protection, but I have to say that the arguments made by gun users in our country, offer some extremely valid points. Here's a friend of mine explaining his opinion on this matter:

It’s things like this that give the anti-gun cabal even more ammunition in their battle to rid this nation of guns, but their rationale is skewed, guns don’t kill people, people kill people, a gun, regardless of what type of gun, is an inanimate object and is incapable of thinking and acting on it’s own.

I have a rather simplistic solution to gun violence though, let’s try banning insane people from owning or obtaining guns and then let’s try something even more unique, take the gangs and bad guys off the streets and I can guarantee you that gun violence in the USA will drop by 99.99% almost immediately.
An armed nation is a nation of citizens, an unarmed nation is a
nation of subjects.

Which do YOU prefer to be?
