Gun Reform Quotes

“...paradise is a world where everything
is a sanctuary & nothing is a gun...”
― Danez Smith, Don't Call Us Dead

“The Chupacabra Sonnet

Chihuahuas need guns for strength,
They feel naked without concealed carry.
To them I say, with all humility,
Open your eyes muchacho - ¡chupacabra aquí!
You may keep your gun, I won't say a word,
But don't confuse them to be your safe haven.
Own them in secret, but think of using them,
And you'll face the wrath of this kraken.
You may conceal, you may carry, if law allows,
But dare not raise your gun at a reformador.
To the wounded stranger I am ointment,
But to the inhuman vermin I am volcano.
Carrying a gun every moron feels like superman.
Stand up to cruelty unarmed, then you are human.”
― Abhijit Naskar, High Voltage Habib: Gospel of Undoctrination

“The best arguments for more restrictive gun laws recognize that no law is foolproof. These arguments emphasize, however, that such laws can reduce the likelihood that some criminals will have access to guns, in turn reducing the overall level of gun violence. This is the heart of the issue--given that we cannot eliminate all gun violence, what can be done to reduce it? What can be done to make it more difficult for criminals to gain access to firearms?”
― Michael W. Austin, God and Guns in America

“...this crowd feels like a world in which peace can work out. Stricter laws on guns, mental health services provided to all, an end to shame around needing help, an honest conversation about the malady that is white supremacy. It can exist. It doesn’t have to be this complicated.”
― Lorraine Avila, The Making of Yolanda la Bruja
