I'm fairly conservative - but...
I don't deny the second amendment, but I think we'd all be a lot better off without guns. Yes even if a few bad guys still have them. Here's why:
Enough! Is what He said. Have we no trust in His might?
Did we really think bearing arms was a God given right?
Turn the other cheek for vengeance is God’s right.
Only then can we celebrate a truly special Saturday Night.
It may be lawful, and it may indeed be just,
But we can live in confidence, when in God we truly trust.
Only the weak and fearful, or those with thieving hearts of lust.
The power to kill your brother – Is this such a must?
No! For God gives us a spirit confident and strong
Which proceeds not from a metal barrel short or long
But from the God Eternal to whom we all belong.
So let us not continue to idolize that which is wrong.
If it can keep a Colt or Beretta out of a killers hands.
Why not limit access to these deadly brands.
Let us despise the gun all across our lands.
Waiting? Tracking? Forsake them altogether as Jesus Christ commands!
No one is an island, separate and insolated from the main
So send not to know who was the victim, Let me explain:
When a killer shoots our neighbor we all feel the pain
Listen to all the gunshots - they toll for thee again.
Hand guns are made for killing, they aren’t good for anything else
And if you like your whiskey you might even shoot yourself.
So why don’t we dump them all in the sea – off the continental shelf
Before some fool comes and finds us, and shoots both of us and himself.*

“Its a saturday night special - Got a barrel that’s blue and cold
Ain’t no good for nothin’ - But put a man six feet in a hole”
