Americans have been in denial and stupid about this subject for a very long time. This is from the Legends of America website: "Firearms were the second leading cause of emigrant injury and death. Because of the need to hunt and fear of Indian attacks, wagon trains were filled with more firepower then they would ever need. One Oregon Trail expedition had a 72-wagon train that carried 260 pistols and rifles, nearly a ton of lead, and over a thousand pounds of gunpowder. Most of the travelers had no training or experience with firearms. Consequently, countless people accidentally shot themselves or others."

Could anything be more offensive than the Massie family photo? But that's just what they were going for. They want to own the libs, and it doesn't matter who dies. These Republicans will tell you they believe in helping the mentally ill and barring them from gun ownership. But, when it's time to pay for health care or agencies to do the checks, it's sorry we just can't afford those! Help the victims? Out of the question!

I heard the somber tone Thom used to read this Report; he did a great job with the statistics. America is addicted to violence. First we have to admit we have a problem. Let the admission commence.
