Columbine, Ten Years On


Anti Gun Violence Campaign

And nothing really has happened with gun control. We are "shocked" by the Virginia Tech massacre, but nothing changes. We are shocked when a man kills a minister in the pulpit in Illinois. We are shocked when Northern Illinois University becomes a battleground, but nothing changes. We are shocked when a man kills people in an East Tennessee church because he "hates liberals". We are shocked when a man (too many to count) kills his family and then turns the gun on himself. We are shocked when students are gunned down at Heath HS right here in Kentucky. We are saddened when.........................
But nothing changes. America loves its guns. America will suffer its high murder rates to keep those guns at all costs. I am not shocked by the Columbines. I am just wondering where the next one will hit. Like a tornado or earthquake. Angry people with easy access to guns is the formula for this carnage. Why are we surprised?

Start where you are...
Use what you have...
Become the change that you want to see in the world.

Enough for Everyone's Need, Not for Everyone's Greed...

Live simply so that others may simply live.

Become the Media

Don't listen to the one-sided corporate-owned media. They are not in the business of finding the truth. They are only concerned about making money for themselves and their stock holders. If they do report the truth, it is only because it suits their business plan. A happy accident...
Become the media! Blog it, film it, record it...
You still have credibility... They don't.
