Another Gloria Opinion ... on if guns get up, walk ... run to do bad things ...

How did the gun get to her home ... kill her?  How did it get to a school to kill innocent children?  How did it shoot someone while walking down the street?  How did ... how did?

Did the gun have legs, hands?  Did the gun get up from its resting place ... walk, run to go shoot someone?  Did the gun hate, love the person, animal being shot?  Does a gun have emotions?  Does it?

Can guns do good by themselves?  Can guns do bad things by themselves?  Can they?

The day I see a gun walking, running by itself on legs to murder people is the day I'll believe they can do bad things without people behind them.  I haven't seen that yet ... unless ... guns sneak around by themselves, wait until no one is looking ... then runs, walks ... to shoot someone.  Maybe they do this ... I've wondered if toys play at night when no one's watching :)  Do you think guns do the same when no one is watching?

All these years I have watched, listened to the news ... people argue about guns.  I don't particularly like guns but ... I know they can protect, save lives.  Guess what?  They can't even do that if ... a person isn't behind it giving it ... power.  Just like when guns kill ... a person has to be behind it to ... give it power.

A Person ... Has To Give That Gun ... Power.  The gun can't get up to walk, run ... to shoot people on its own.  A person has to give power to the gun in order for it to shoot ... at least in the world I know ... a person has to do just that.

It's strange ... we can't always predict when someone is going to have mental issues ... decide they want to destroy others ... kill, murder, rob.  This in my Gloria Opinion is ... the problem.  Even I can't see how one can always predict when another person is going to change from their sweet, good selves ... decide to murder, kill innocent or not-so-innocent people.  

It doesn't matter which ... it takes a person to be behind that gun ... to make it fire.  It takes a person ... to aim that gun to make sure it hits a particular target.  A person has to feel some kind of emotion to shoot another person, animal.  That combined with the action of their hands guide that gun ... to do what's in that person's mind.  That person may see himself/herself as a God, a warrior ... something they've imagined ... and do what they think their purpose is here on earth.  Who knows?  

We know people can change in the blink of an eye.  Have you ever seen a ... normal person ... change that quickly?  You never knowing they have a strange side you weren't aware of ... you never suspected?  I have.  I know people fool others by ... hiding the real person they are.  If you ever witnessed such ... I know you have been shocked just like me.

I listen all the time to people saying to take all the guns ... my Gloria Opinion is ... they would take all the guns from good people because that's the easiest, less resistant route.  They are afraid of gangs ... bad places they'd have to go into ... to take guns.  They are afraid of people who have no value on human life.  They would take the wrong guns out of the wrong hands. Then ... who has the power?  Not the government ... well, maybe the government and ... the very people who do the murdering, robbing people.

My Gloria Opinion is ... before making a decision ... people better take careful thought before acting.  The guns themselves aren't bad ... it takes a person to corrupt it ... into being bad.  It takes a person to ... pull that trigger.  It takes a person to aim it ... at another person, animal.  The gun doesn't ... have a mind of its own.

My Gloria Opinion isn't up for debate.  It's just like your opinion ... other people's opinions ... we all have one.  I respect what you think, feel no matter if I agree, disagree ... I know you respect my opinion whether you agree ... disagree.

Author's Note:

I shared my Another Gloria Opinion from my page that I wrote today.  This is exactly how I feel ... and it's not up for debate.  I respect your opinion and you respect mine ... we can still be friends even if we don't agree.  Different opinions open our eyes so we can see there are other things to think about even ... if we don't change our opinions.  Opinions are like the many spices of life ... we can try them out to see if we like them.
