The national conversation that followed the tragedy in El Paso, where a coward drinking from the bitter cup of xenophobia and racism killed 22 people in that Hispanic town, and in Dayton, where a seemingly deranged man took nine lives, is that we are basically at a point of helplessness.
Yet what we need right now is the will to finally put an end to the cycle of mass murder in this nation that we were painfully reminded of in last weekend’s massacres.
We need to stop praying and take decisive action now.
We can begin by pushing for prudent gun control laws that would make it extremely difficult for madmen to take any more lives, including white nationalists.

there was a drunk that killed several people drinking and driving just the other day, and the day before, and the day before that..... let's make alcohol illegal, go into homes and bars and confiscate the products.
Wait, we already did that, how did that turn out? |

TO REMEMBER |
| I do believe that where there is a choice only between cowardice and violence, I would advise violence. Thus when my eldest son asked me what he should have done had he been present when I was almost fatally assaulted in 1908 [by an Indian extremist opposed to Gandhi's agreement with Smuts], whether he should have run away and seen me killed or whether he should have used his physical force which he could and wanted to use, and defend me, I told him it was his duty to defend me even by using violence. Hence it was that I took part in the Boer War, the so-called Zulu Rebellion and [World War I]. Hence also do I advocate training in arms for those who believe in the method of violence. I would rather have India resort to arms in order to defend her honor than that she should in a cowardly manner become or remain a helpless witness to her own dishonor. — Mohandas K. Gandhi, Young India, August 11, 1920 from Fischer, Louis ed.,The Essential Gandhi, 1962 |
