does anything change?

Today, in the wake of death, what change is needed? 

I read the text of the President's speech yesterday. I listened briefly to the news this morning. It's the same old talk. Same old words. Common sense gun laws are needed. What are those? Because that's not going to matter. Restrictions are needed. What kind of restrictions? Do you want to ban assault weapons? What exactly are those? Be specific. Then, do it. Both sides, make compromises if you have to. Get it done. But don't be vague. Don't be lazy. Stand up to whoever you need to. Good grief. Stop saying the same old things. If you want to ban assault rifles, do it. It won't be the first time. If you can show people that it'll make a difference, then show them, prove it. But if you're lazy, and you're true concern is the power you yield as a legislator, then just shut up and sit there. Stop blaming. Stop pointing fingers. But if you believe it's for the good of the people, then just do it. Isn't that your job? Go ahead, give it a try!

But, when you've done that, then you better be ready to address the real problems. You better be ready to discuss and fix the problems in this country that have led us to where we are today. Because taking aspirin for a fever, only makes the fever disappear, not the flu itself. Same things apply to the people. Stop being lazy. Go ahead, give it a try! 

Do YOU think that will happen? Ever? Politicians...media...religion...

Whatever happened to just doing the right thing? Looking out for each other. Being kind and helpful. Thinking about others before yourself?
