Terrible Trends

I think at this point I can only do so many anti-gun posts. I've done at least six. Today was a hospital in Chicago. I was just in a hospital three days ago, utterly helpless for six hours while recovering from that nasty anesthesia. Stupid laparoscopy. Who shoots up a hospital? That's like shooting up …

Land of Hate

The other day, my sister and I went to Knott's Berry Farm. It was a weekday, so not many people there, but then again I'm comparing it to Disneyland. It was empty enough that we could actually see people, as opposed to an ocean of figures through which you have to swim. While we enjoyed …

McCain and Madden

RIP, McCain. Republican or not, he was a respectable man. I can't imagine anyone coming out of a POW camp as normal as he did. But for Trump to behave as trivial as he is, even though McCain didn't like him, it's silly. I say silly because calling it anything else makes Trump sound like …

No, It Is Not Safe

Since last week, there have been at least three shootings of which I know. Just to remind myself what order they happened in, I Googled "shooting" and went under the news tab. That, of course, pulled up way more incidents than I thought. Aside from the Trader Joes and Toronto and that instigator guy in …

Santa Fe This Time…

I think since I’ve started this blog I’ve done about four or five posts about some kind of active shooter event. Since this is America, I predict I’ll be making more in the future because America doesn’t know how to learn lessons from their mistakes. Or from others’ mistakes. Or just how to learn lessons …

Two Years Ago…

Once upon a time, a man walked into a fire station. He handed the woman at the front door a note, left to his car, and opened the trunk to retrieve the rifle inside. He pulled it out and shot himself three times, to the horror of the woman at the front desk. She called …

Relevancy: The Key

Unless you live in another country or under a rock, you’ll know the media is always looking for the next tragedy. If the nation needs a distraction from one thing, we’ll just move onto the next thing. This time around, it is not the case. Almost a month later, we are still talking about the …

The Flaw of “Black and White”

The irony of saying something like a picture or a movie is in black and white is that it really isn’t; it’s actually a variety of grays. See, anyone who knows anything about colors will know there’s a bunch of them. You can have your standard red, yellows, green, and blue, but you can also …

Yet Another Mass Shooting/Gun Control Post

In my household, gun control is always a sensitive subject. Democrats outnumber republican ideals here, so whenever someone says, “Guns don’t kill people, people kill people,” that argument doesn’t go far, especially with my mother who always play devil’s advocate. And no one can argue against mother because our household runs on logic. And mother …
