The next time you hear a right wing talking head blathering on about 2nd Amendment rights, recall the image above to mind and, if given the opportunity, remind the speaker of their complicity in the deaths of the individuals pictured above and the thousands of others who die each year because of America's insane and irresponsible gun laws.

When they try to claim that if everyone had a gun, there wouldn't be any more gun violence, remind them of James Brady, who was, along with Ronald Regan, shot, under the protection of some of the most heavily armed and well trained security people in the world. I've seen Secret Service Agents up close. I had an occasion some years ago to work with a couple during a dignitary visit. They are serious people who carry serious weapons, yet a shooter got through. More guns is not the answer to this kind of senseless violence.
