A Fist Full Of Bullets, By Brian37 (AKA Brian James Rational Poet on FB/META and @Brianrrs37 on Twitter/X)

Shopping at the Dollar Store, is now a death sentence
Being black is a crime, we must coddle white grievance
The object fetish cult will never show repentance

Rambo, Rambo wannabes, Oath Keepers are such sleaze
Dirty Harry fantasy, sell more, sell more, blood orgy please
Blame Chicago, the go to scapegoat, throw Obama in a moat

Bangs, pops, empty clips, splattered brains, shattered hips
Can’t even buy a bag of chips, at the checkout, the blood drips
Bodies drop, the profit’s crop, 400million firearms aren’t enough

We’ve had enough of your lies, NRA’s Lord Of The Flies
Hand deadly objects out like candy, destroying lives isn’t that dandy
Weapons of war come in handy, because the industry wants to make money

You are all bullies cowards and wimps, the GOP are all insolent chimps
Chumps selling you fear of tyranny, caring not of death that’s plenty
Prayer is a long dead cliche, they don’t help in any way

“Strict Originalists” often say, well then here’s a musket from back in the day
On the cold concrete the bodies lay, high capacity bullets spray
An average of 100 a day, and you assholes think more is ok?
(end)

FUCK THE NRA, fuck the gun cult, fuck the GOP. I hate violence, we do not need more guns. Gun violence isn’t a black problem, it isn’t a city problem, it is a volume problem, and a problem in every zip code, even the suburbs and rural. People should have the right to go outside their homes and not fear having their heads blown off. The fucking assholes on the right sell the idea that more guns makes us safer, and that is bullshit, and it is a dangerous lie and I am tired of seeing these stories on the news.

I am white, and I am tired of white people claiming they are victims, or that if we have gun safety laws we will become a dictatorship. You have been sold fear and bullshit by the industry and by the GOP. We don’t want a dictatorship, we just want safety put before industry profits.
