To: President Donald Trump, The United States House of Representatives, and The United States Senate
Not One More Child
In the aftermath of the horrific murder of 20 kindergarten students at Sandy Hook Elementary School it is shockingly apparent our current gun laws are insufficient to protect our children from gun violence; therefore, we petition the United States House of Representatives, the United States Senate and the President of the United States to enact legislation which will make it illegal for private citizens to own either automatic or semi-automatic pistols or assault rifles.
Why is this important?
NO MORE CHILDREN WILL BE SACRIFICED ON THE ALTAR OF THE SECOND AMENDMENT!
I don't know how, but this grandfather has had enough. I'm going to start a campaign, movement, whatever it takes, and we're going to go after the guns. Americans don't need handguns and we don't need assault weapons, and clearly the system we have today doesn't work.
Twenty kindergarten children were murdered today; an entire classroom full of six and seven year olds. The shooter reportedly used two 9mm handguns, one made by Glock and the other by Sig Sauer, and an AR-15-type rifle also was found at the scene.
Spare me the whining about your Second Amendment rights, I don’t want to hear it, and I don’t think the twenty sets of parents, or the forty sets of grandparents care one whit about your right to own an AK47, AR15 or semi-automatic pistol; while you’re screaming about your precious gun rights, stop and think about the erased rights of those 20 children to “life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness”. Their blood and their futures is too high a price for your right to go “target shooting”, to “collect” weapons, or to prepare for whatever post apocalyptic future you’ve dreamed up in your foil encrusted head.
The streets of heaven are too crowded with angels tonight. They're our children, grandchildren, students, teachers and our parents and our friends. The streets of heaven are too crowded with angels.
