Massacre (s!)

In utter disbelief I woke up to a memo on my phone about the massacre of fellow Americans...thinking this was a slight delay in the aftermath of the tragedy in El Paso...then read that it was but ANOTHER shooting...in Dayton, Ohio...9 more killed, amongst at least 20 others shot...yes, my fellow readers, TWO MASSACRES!...

How much of this can go on, before our Congressional People do SOMETHING?...stand up to the NRA and ban the assault rifles...this nonsense about its not the weapons that kill, but the deranged shooter...has to stop...just wondering how many shot people does it take for a Rep and a Senator to react?...even, the (gulp) Prez?...'we are sending our thoughts and prayers'...sure seems to be mighty shallow, don't you think?...

Where is it safe to go, in these present times?...think about it...we have witnessed massacres in most every place possible...malls, restaurants, bars, movie theaters, churches, schools, concerts, and on and on...what MORE has to happen?...

Some say that killers are driven...one could also say that in this ridiculous era of Racial Divide, drummed up again by the leadership we now have...may just trigger more anger...and the use of the rapid fire rifle enables their thoughts to play out...I don't know...I do know that Congress needs to act and NOW!!!...

I need to say more...why wouldn't Congress act on this?...the right to bear arms, enough already...what every American has to have is a rapid fire rifle?...ah, no...these people succumb to the money given them by the NRA lobbyists...to help their money driven campaign to get reelected...shamefully, they then turn away any measures and laws that would prohibit the gun manufacturers...

Is this the incentive to act?...I dunno, kids...the killings of the grade school children, just had to be it, a few years back...but, NOPE!...just the 'thoughts and prayers' thing...

Other, much less important...much, much, less...

The COX cable system has been odious the past week...something is going on...the feed goes in and out...the service dude came out yesterday, did what he could...but informed us that a power source went out in the area...nobody else has been talking about it...really thinking about AT&T...

The mighty Padres, were also lacking a power source and lost to the Bums...ah, again...have a chance to square the series today...will need 6 runs to win, I say...and this...it's a long season...and one of the key parts to any team...is camaraderie...when, you disrupt that, it hurts what you got going...SD has one of those young gun GMs...it's all about stats, and not what is in your heart...well, part of our heart, was taking out, by the trade of the ever likable Fran Reyes...

You trying (COX cable) to watch the PGA T?...the last one prior to the season ending fiasco...anyhoo...the continued demise of the once powerful Jordan Spieth was on display, again...yesterday....he has just lost it...can't hit fairways, and now...can't putt...it's a tough game, kids...

It appears that the condo market may be picking up...so, yes, we are thinking about it again...gonna wait a bit longer...maybe not that long...

Hmmm, think about the week we have had...Gilroy, El Paso, and Dayton...

How about this...ban the rapid fire rifle...offer $500 to return the weapon...you can keep your hand gun....you can keep your single fire rifle...let's try this...is this that hard to implement?...apparently so...
