The recent shootings are unacceptable in any society. Will gun control stop those shootings or killings? No. The black market or underground market has and always will exist and any type of killing instrument or method will be available to anyone determined to take innocent lives. The crux of the matter isn’t about guns, it is about moral and religious values. The real issue is laws that really protect the criminal, not the innocent.

We allow alternate lifestyles and bend over backwards for all beliefs except Christianity, which we now are beginning to persecute. Stop it right now and allow this nation to be what it was intended to be — a nation of freedoms, not restrictions.

Yes I am a Christ follower, but I also believe that there is some good to be taken from all beliefs and I am not to judge those beliefs. I am to live my life as an example to others. I can’t do that if I am restricted in what I can say and do while others can do what they want, which is stifle my belief.

‘Lets all get on the same page and promote the goodness of what we believe and hate crimes and such will be reduced. We must accept, though, who the world was given over to and it really is a battle of good against evil. Let’s help good prevail and stop legislating away the right to be free in our faiths.
