one common element is the semiautomatic rifle, and yet there is a faction of people who believe its either a mental health issue or a lack of religion in our society. And now the same religious faction are "blessing" semiautomatic rifles? Am I the only one who finds this disturbing?
Only,blessing that made sense was the annual blessing of the bicycles ( don't know if that is done anymore) . Had enough harrowing moments behind handlebars that I could have used a blessing.
The majority agrees with you. The belligerent minority that rules our country right now, that includes God fearing good Christians, rationalize in every way they can to keep these weapons of murder legal. The NRA is relentless, but angry opposition is growing. We shall see how this pans out.
Nope. Here in Florida we had our lawmakers shoot down a proposal to ban weapons like those used in the recent school shooting here, then they turned around and voted to put"in God we trust" in all our schools and pronounce porn a public health menace. Blithering idiots openly on the take.
