   “An Open Letter To Hunter’s
   And Automatic Weapon Lovers.”
   
   
   Can any hunter please
   try explaining to me
   why any citizen needs
   automatic weapon
   if a huge buck draws near
   and your shot is quite clear
   are you simply afraid
   that you’ll miss him.
   
   Cause it only
   takes one shot
   or sometimes just two
   to kill rabbits, squirrels
   quail, pheasants or ducks
   so why would you
   have to use AR 15’s
   unless all of your
   shooting skills suck
   
   And don’t tell me
   they’re good for practicing
   when your trying
   to hit paper targets
   even blind men could
   aim and hit a bulls eye clean
   there’s no real talent
   after you’ve shot it
   
   Using thirty rounds
   fired from your magazine
   will not make you
   equivalent to a Marine
   who can put one shot
   through it dead center
   again and again
   until it’s just routine
   
   What happened
   to the real men
   who could hit
   a silver dollar
   tossed in the air,
   aiming with
   great care
   using their rifles
   or their revolvers
   rapid fire brings
   Marksmanship
   dishonor
   
   Please don’t harp at me
   about black markets
   banning these weapons
   will bring controls
   with tough laws instituted
   to put fear into
   all heartless souls
   
   Those who sell them
   will get life in prison
   those who buy them
   will get twenty years
   there will be no
   kind of mercy shown
   when in courtrooms
   they will appear.
   
   And all who re=sell
   them will suffer
   massive fines and
   great public shame
   as their put on a
   list for watching
   to catch men with their
   own selves to blame
   
   Gun laws must be
   made more barbaric
   for all shooters
   who hunt and kill kids
   no appeals…just executions
   for the horrible crimes
   that they did
   
   Criminals will at last
   have less access
   though it will take
   a very long time
   till all automatic
   guns vanish
   leaving all of our
   lives more sublime
   
   Let’s raise the price
   on ammunition
   for all rapid fired guns
   $200.00 dollars
   for each bullet
   then maybe at last
   we’ll be done
   with killers who use
   these cruel guns
   
   you can keep every
   gun you now own
   nobody’s taking them away
   but if their made
   to be auto-fired
   turn them in or
   you will pay
   in stronger, far more
   harsher ways
   
   And no one should
   wear body armor
   unless your job’s
   protecting the law
   turn it in to those
   who really need them
   donate it to their
   worthy cause.
   
   
   Military grade weapons
   were strictly designed
   for only one
   true use you see
   built for putting huge holes
   and exacting cruel tolls
   on America
   worst enemies.
   
   They weren’t made for
   civilians to use them
   just because they
   think it’s fun
   they were meant
   to lay withering fire
   leaving corpses
   to rot in the sun
   cutting off all attacks
   so they’d never come back
   so why in the hell
   do you need one?
   
   Cause sadly they’re
   also effective
   in the eager hands
   of crazy men
   cowards intending to
   butcher children
   by shooting them all
   again and again
   until DNA is required
   to identify each child
   cause their flesh
   has been defiled.
   
   But what if it was
   your own daughters or sons?
   Would you realize then
   gazing at closed coffins? 
   that were a necessity
   to let you say goodbye
   to your child that was
   tragically chosen to die
   
   cause some eighteen year old
   had faced no real laws applied
   so he entered a school
   and let his bullets fly
   into innocent kids
   with no real reasons why?
   
   Would you vote for a ban
   that would only apply
   on weapons designed
   for cruel uses in war?
   not for leaving your child
   dying on a school floor
   Would you change your mind
   fast and begin to abhor
   the very same weapon
   you had fun with before?
   until you lost the most
   precious life you  adored
   decimated in seconds
   would you then 
   learn the lessons
   that no one should be
   ever foolishly messing
   with military weapons?
   
   and I will guarantee
   that you never will  see
   any of the head honchos
   from the great NRA
   come to knock
   on your door
   just a couple of days
   after your dearest child
   fatally passed away
   offering comfort to you
   in your worst time of grief
   
   But they’d still
   mail you pamphlets
   preaching all their beliefs
   in the rights to own guns
   fearing they might decrease
   hoping for a donation
   to continue your hobby
   to help in enriching senators
   with cash for their lobbies
   that allow you to keep
   your semi-automatics
   would that be something
   you’d find problematic?
   would you finally at long last
   despise all their tactics
   
   Just weeks after nineteen
   young students were killed
   my mail held a letter
   that made my heart chilled
   and sickened me in
   so many sad ways
   but I chose not to open it
   I threw it away
   and guess what the name
   of the sender displayed??
   In very large letters
   it read ……NRA
   
   These gun toting, cash cows
   sent promotional crud
   to help take my mind off
   the gallons of blood
   and I’m sure they sent millions
   into mailboxes shoved
   even to grieving parents
   who’d lost children they loved
   cause it’s not about gun rights
   which makes it not funny
   it’s about their sick need
   to raise so much more money
   every time there’s a shooting
   do they think we’re all dummies
   
   So I have to return
   to the start of this rant
   cause I desperately
   need a reply
   as to what it will take
   for you all too forsake
   guns that shoot
   endless rounds rapid fire
   while your facing
   these killings so dire
   
   Will it take one more shooter
   armed with them bursting in
   to a hospital nursery
   with a most wicked grin
   killing 35 newborns
   and the nurses there too?
   Would that shock you enough
   to give up all your pursuits
   of keeping harsh weapons
   that were not made for you?
   
   
   Can some hunter just one
   try explaining to me
   your true needs for
   military grade weapons?
   Just give me straight facts
   with no second guessing
   if you lost your own child
   from a madman gone wild
   would you still give such
   weapons your blessings????
   
   God help us if you’d
   still be addressing
   more donations to the
   people possessing
   the power to keep
   such damned guns
   on the streets
   or would you think
   it’s past  time
   for suppressing?
   
   I’m just asking
   you know
   I wish no harm
   on anyone’s child
   but it’s getting
   to that point
   where sanity’s
   been defiled
   any of us could fall
   to the powers of
   these weapons
   and it’s something
   right now that we
   can be preventing

      Soldiers need an automatic weapon, and perhaps a few collectors.  Maybe the police dept. although I would question that.
      
      No one else, and that's why it is extremely difficult to obtain one legally.  Or illegally, for that matter; even criminals have a rather difficult time laying their hands on a machine gun of any type.

         Somebodies getting them at least two AR-15's that cost 45 children their lives. If they're that hard to get, than banning them and enforcing it in harsh ways will make it even harfer to get them. Thanks for your input. My nieghbor shoots a military grade weapon every week into a dirt hill. A complete waste of bullets and shooting skills. Why the hell did he even buy one?? that's the real question
