type102One year after 20 children and six teachers were gunned down in cold blood, has the average American remembered.Remembered the torment the families went through, the promises that were made about the gun laws and the changes that would follow. Well nothing has happened  since that day, in fact thing have got worse.

In 2013, an amazing 30,000 people were killed by guns, its an unbelievable number of people dead from gun crime etc, not forgetting all the family members involved.

President Obama has tried to change things but the gun lobby and members of congress  stopped things from moving forwards. The gun lobby seem to be in the back pockets of the politicians, not forgetting big business.

Family members of those killed sent amendments to congress and they to were stopped.

It looks like the greater American public and members of congress and the senate don’t care what happens as long as they can keep their little guns because the  second amendment says they can have one. Its time they got their head out of their arse and did something right for a change to protect the public and to try and make America a little bit safer.

A total ban on all guns is the only way to go, if this happened and was fully enforced there would be no reason for anyone to have a gun.

But it will never ever happen the murders will carry on, 30,000 dead every year with untold families destroyed.
