gun poems

I don't get it

I don’t Get It 

Mr. Speaker
I admit I don’t get it

 

How does prayer
Stop gun violence?

Prayer did not work in Texas.


26 people were murdered
 while praying.

 

God if he exists
Obviously does not care

About the poor people

Who died in his church

Because a mad man


Got a gun

And no they were not praying
To be delivered from death

No one deserves to die like this

 

So my prayer to you

Is simply this


Get off your rear end

Rally the country

And do something

 

About gun violence

 

That’s a prayer
I hope works

Dear Speaker Ryan

I want to tell you something


The dead don’t want your prayers

The dead don’t care that you pray for them

They are dead after all

 

And you and your so-called Christians

Are to blame

You refuse to do anything
Anything at all

 

to stop the carnage
In our streets

 

The U.S. is flooded with guns

And more are sold every day

Millions of people don’t have health coverage

Millions are barely surviving

 

And your answer

Our dear great compassionate Speaker

Your answer 

Is Prayer works
Government action does not

You act as if the gun violence
Plaguing our country


Was like the weather
Beyond our control

So here’s my prayer for you


And your colleagues

When you die
I pray that God
Will send you

 

And your friends
Straight to hell

Where Satan and his demons
Will use you for target practice

 

That’s my prayer to you
And as you know
Prayer works

 

Mr. President
You are wrong once again


You said that the tragic events 

in Texas
And Las Vegas were not “gun situations”


But rather were mental health problems

And that in Texas

if there had been no gun controls

Perhaps fewer people would have died

 

Mr. President


I know you a smart man


The smartest man in the world


 

According to you

So please contemplate this fact


According to the latest findings


It is a gun situation

 

In fact, the reason the U.S.


Has so many gun deaths 


Is because we have so many guns


45% of the worlds guns in fact

And 33 percent of the world’s shooters


Are Americans killing other Americans

And most of them 

 

the majority of them


Are White men killing other people

Not Islamic terrorists


 

Most are in fact


Self-proclaimed Christians

So Mr. President


When will you come to your senses

And do what 90 percent of the public wants


 

Enact nation wide effective gun controls?

And tell the NRA
 

they can take their blood money elsewhere

 

When Mr. President


When will you act


When will you take charge

And become a President of the people

Instead of the President of the NRA?

Virginia Beach Massacre Never Again

Virgina Beach 




In a night of horrific scumbagery violence


Rarely seen in this jaded age of ours


Gone in one hour

In a spasm of horrific scumbagery violence
I

In just a few short minutes


 

Nothing more than that
 

In just a few moments


All 12 victims were murdered

By a disgruntled employee


 

Every one he knew was shot


And killed for no reason

Caused by the demons


His soul was so infected

 

Murderous demonic voices


All in his head


Screaming **** them all 

**** them all


 

Screaming none stop violence in his head


All the time

Causing him to start shooting 

everyone he saw


 

Regardless of who they were 

or where they were


Everyone must die 

screamed the demonic voices in his head

No one can be left alive


 

Everyone must die


Virtually all must die 

in his internal video game


Everyone must die

 


Regardless of who they were 

or where they were

Again just another day


Gone horribly wrong


 

All across America
In

every town


No where is safe anymore

Virgina Beach massacre

 

Virgina Beach massacre


Just another

Average night in America


An Active Shooter

scumbagery violence


Rarely seen

 

in this jaded wild world
Gone in one hour

In a spasm of horrific
scumbagery

In just a less than 30 short minutes


Nothing more than

In just a few short 30 moments


All the victims

were murdered while at their daily 

work
wrong place wrong time

 

act of a demotic deranged madman

voices screaming ****

The voices scream

death to all humans


 

All must be killed

The voices scream over and over
All must die now

 

Just another night in America

Land of the Brave

Home of the free

More Guns for Everyone in the World

 

The NRA has decided


That the best solution to global problem


Of rampant violence and crime everywhere

Is for the rest of the world


 

To become like the U.S.


Where anyone can buy a gun


As an armed society is a polite society’

 

And so the President i

s about to announce


A global campaign against gun control restrictions


 

As these restrictions

are an undue burden


On the rights of the US arms manufactures

To sell their guns 

everywhere in the world

 


As everyone wants what we have to sell


The best weapons in the world

Instead of trying to limit the damage

 


That unrestricted gun sales


Have done to the U.S.

Our President, our great leader


Wants to sell more guns


Everywhere in the world

 

And there are eager buyers


Lining up around the world


Eager to buy the best guns


The world has ever seen

 

We want to export


The gun madness


That has infected our society

 


Leaving behind so many dead bodies

The dead were not consulted


For they remain dead

 


They do not vote
They have no voice

For the guns silenced them

 

For good
 just as the guns intended

 

Just doing their gun thing after all

 

Humanity has evolved
From stones to arrows

To guns
T o nuclear, biological weapons

 

And the U.S.
 While proclaiming itself

A champion of Human Rights

 

Remains nothing 

but a country 

Of gun runners
 Merchants of death
And destruction

NRA Please Stop Talking

 

Another day

Another mass shooting


Another incident

of domestic terrorism


 

another gun man

killing people

because just because
 he can

and he wants to **** people

 

The NRA 
And their stooges


Come out


Flood the airways

With their noxious

Poisonous weasel words


 

The NRA says

Mass shootings


Are like the weather


You can’t control them

You can’t predict them


And you can’t prevent them

 

Just have to accept


It is all god’s will


Guns don’t **** people

IF guns were outlawed


Only outlaws
 would have guns

 

Only solution 
Is more guns


For everyone


An armed society

they say 
Is a polite society


 

Support for gun control
I is

socialist/communist/fascist/anti-Am  erican/anti-Christian nonsense

The beginning of tyranny


 

If only the Jews had guns


The holocaust would not have happened

 

Jesus would want us all
 

to be armed 
with machine guns

To protect us against the evil doers


It is the Christian thing to do


 

To blow away evil doers

With heavy arms


 

In America

Land of the free


Home of the brave

We can’t do anything


 

At all

About the mass carnage


Unleashed by madmen with guns


Who walk among us


Searching for their next victims

Any restriction of the right


 

To bear arms


Is tyranny at its worst

The nanny state run amuck


Talking about gun control


After a tragic event
Is

 

just not the appropriate time


We only need prayers


and meaningless thoughts

 

Universal background checks


Too onerous

Registering guns


Too burdensome

 

Researching gun violence


waste of tax payer money

banning military style assault weapons
r

 

Restricts my right 

to blow 
away


Bambi the deer
with a M16

 

the NRA will keep talking


talking and talking


preventing anything


from being done

 

and we will have another


Mass shooting event


Before the day is out

 

So my plead


This day
To the NRA
A

and their stoogies


Talk is cheap


Your comments
Are not helping

 

If you can’t


Be a part of the solution

Just stop talking


Please stop talking

 


And let the rest

Of us  figure out


How to stop


The madness in the streets

And stop the carnage


 

So NRA


Please
 just
 stop
 talking
 Now

military assault weapons 
are locked up

 

yet in America


the land of the free


home of the brave
 

everyone and his cousin


must have their gun

 

guns for everyone


cries the NRA


that’s the solution

 

The president
a 

and his supporters


deny the obvious

guns **** people

That’s all they do


 

it is a gun thing


you would not understand

Guns just do

what guns gonna do

**** people

 

Mr. President


You can take your words


your empty platitudes

Your empty promises

Your prayers 

 

straight to hell


and back

 

where with any luck


Satan will use you


as target practice

Chief of Staff You are Absurd

 

the President’s chief of staff

said the other day


it was absurd


to suggest that the president’s words


had anything to do


with recent mass shootings

 

yet is it absurd


to see the lengths


to which the President’s supporters

will twist and turn


spinning awa
y

the inconvenient truth

President Trump 
is a racist bigot con man


who some how
 conned his way


to become President

he call immigrants criminals, vermin, animals


invaders infesting the country

the El Paseo shooter 


said that he went to the border


to shoot the invaders


and said
 that he was a big Trump fan

it is not absurd
 to connect these two huge dots

The President’s words
 

have real world consequences

 

Yes Mr. Trump is a racist pig
a

and his supporters
 are being absurd


to suggest otherwise

Mr. President Words Matter

 

Mr. President Words Matter

 

Mr President


Words matter


your words matter

 

your words of hate


your words of division

your words 
calling fellow human beings 
**** vermin,


invaders, animals 
matter

 

they matter a lot


and is it little wonder


that people listen 


to the hate you sprew forth

 

and some deranged people


take action 
on your call 
for action

against the invaders 


on the border


 

they march to the border


to **** the invaders

your words matter


Mr. President

 


and your false words
of regret

fool no one


the damage has been done


the hate has been spread


just as you intended

 

and you 
have the gall 


to call yourself
A Christian

you are the anti-Christ


you are not a Christian


so please quite pretending


to be what you are not

 

please man up


accept your responsibility


set things right


apologize

 

the dead though


don’t need your prayers


they need action


they need leadership

 

and you are the president


so please start acting


like you give a ****

 

and if you do so


perhaps 
you will find


people will follow you

but please
 quite the words 
of hate


 

the words that hurt

and quit calling immigrants
 invaders 

and vermin
 

 

they are human beings


they are deserving of respect

this I ask of you 
In Jesus’s name
even though I am not a Christian
another day, another shooting

 

Another Day Another Shooting

another day in paradise

just another day in Americal

Land of the free

Home of the brave

 

and gunshots,

lots of gunshots
more guns for all
cries the NRA

 

yes another day

another gun battle
another white man

who just wants to ****

 

the President sends his condolences
Thanks the law enforcement 
for an incredible job well done
It was horrible

 

Hate has no place

in our country

and we will take of it 


and do what ever we can do

condolences 
nothing but false words
empty words 


lots of things to do

it is mental illness problem


but he fails to mention

the words gun at al

not at all

and tomorrow and tomorrow


but he at least finally 

said 
hate has no role in country
nothing but prime BS

in my humble opinion

 

he did not mention 
white supremacy
his rhetoric had nothing

nothing to do 

about this at all

 

and so tomorrow

I will turn on the TV
and we see

nothing at all

 

and the dead
will remain dead
the guns will fire again


nothing will be done

welcome to America
land of the free
home of the brave
