What does it say when a tragedy occurs in the World, the United States, or our community that has people "marching " to keep our children safe from Gun violence? Really not much unless the way "they" are trying to do it is to take guns from law abiding, well trained citizens, or when "they" twist the narrative to fit "their" political agenda.

There have been several such incidents lately in the USA, which is where I am. With all the rhetoric,it got me thinking, who or what is the real issue here. In my opinion, it is an issue of the heart. What is at the heart of the Anti- first and second amendment to the constitution rhetoric, is the ability to protect and defend our families against tyrants. The ability to express diverse thoughts, without taking offenses. This leaves the individual responsible for their actions. Without this accountability we tend to say "Not me, I did not do it.", without this accountability we tend to say, "let the government protect us." Many other expressions, "hate speech" etc. come into the national narrative, the buzz words abound. I ask what is wrong with taking personal responsibility? We ask why doesn't somebody, government primarily, do something? If we expect the government to keep us safe, to show us what we are to say and do then we are in a world of hurt. We slip into apathy, what does this whole thing have to do with me? What can I one person do against the march toward Moral apathy?

How about making a decision that all decisions that we make about these issues go back to the original primary documents on human behavior? For me it is Bible centrism, which states there is a God, he made the rules, and if we follow His rules, we will prosper as people, as communities and as nations.
