It has been an emotional day for me. I live in Florida where people are allowed if not encouraged to stand your ground and shoot first. 14 years living in US has taught me one thing: money talks. So if you believe in Gun control strongly, go donate to reputable charity organizations that will speak up for us. Let's do something. Good night.
USA has the highest rate world-wide for suicide by guns, and highest rate world-wide for unintentional deaths caused by guns. The scary figure is that USA is just behind South Africa in terms of fire-arm related homicides & national death rate per head of population. Tighten gun control to create criminal concentrated weapons supply groups that the NSA & FBI can more effectively target & shut down
shortly after 9/11 mesages from medjugorje .... "Levites should be taking census". Those with any discerment know ahat this means.
