Rain does not know where it is falling
Knife does not know what it is cutting
Bullet does not know what it is hitting
Gun does not know where it is firing.
Silence for a minute for Sandy Hook is not enough
Politicians, parents, preachers and teachers
Bow your head in shame for a colossal failure
Society we built responsible for lives lost.
The shooter is not the one to blame for lack of virtues
Society at large has lost the value of virtues and morals
We worship the achievers among us at alter with praise
Bully and abandon weak and underachievers with rejection.
Guns do not kill people
Most people with guns do not kill people
Only a child ignored, rejected and unsheltred
Becomes a shooter to revenge the rotten society.
Stop the debate on gun control, size and type of guns.
Start the real debate on child education, if we are serious.
Let us start the changes at grass roots, at the kitchen table
Accommodate, appreciate one and all at all times.

Exactly!
Banning guns completely will only help up to a certain point, but those who are unfortunately damaged enough to carry out such terrible attacks will find a way somehow…
