“Another tragic day for America. My heart is broken for everyone left behind.”
*********************************************************************
As you all know Bette was scheduled to be on Leno and the premiere of “Parental Guidance” was to be held today. Â Don’t be surprised if the premiere is canceled or postponed in lieu of this horrible tragedy. This has taken a toll on America’s psyche, so any changes in schedule are to be expected.
My heart goes out to all those families affected during this awful tragedy. It’s a time to reflect and take a good look in the mirror. With so many senseless shootings lately, we must start looking at the causes for these tragedies. It’s something symptomatic within our culture. Two good places to start are gun control and mental illness. It’s time we stop sweeping these issues under the rug and face them head on…..
Peace and love to everybody!

Mr. D, you are so right. But I see a part of American who doesn’t want to see reality. They want their guns and are going to shove the American Constitution on anybody’s face saying they have the right to bare guns. My point is: Can’t the American Constitution be ever changed? Aren’t laws supposed to change as society and its needs evolve? I mean, the law has changed towards women and homosexuals, perhaps not as much as we would like to, but it has changed. Why can’t it change towards guns?! Why the gun industry is so powerful?
I’d have to write a whole essay on that subject. They can make it where we have stricter regulations on guns, but I don’t think I’ll see the day when they are outlawed. The gun lobby is so strong and powerful here that no politician wants to take it on. But there is no reason why people need a AK 47 or military assault weapons to protect themselves. It’s ridiculous….xxoo
