It’s not the pot, the porn, or the video games, it’s not too many doors, too few doors, the gender identity of the shooter or a lack of “good guys” with guns. Dozens of people in Maine are dead right now for one reason… It’s the guns. It’s the guns. It’s the motherfucking guns.

We can’t go to the bank. Can’t go to work, to the grocery store, to the airport, to our places of worship, to a farmer’s market, a concert, a nightclub, a dance hall, a movie or a doctor’s office. Our kids can’t go to a parade, to the mall or to school. You can’t ring the wrong doorbell, pull down the wrong driveway or accidentally hop in the wrong car, without fear of being shot. Shot and killed. In a nation with more guns than people, this has become our reality. But it is not normal. And it sure as shit is not ok.
