Arm Everyone, a poem.

Arm Everyone, a poem.
"Arm Everyone" By Brian37 (AKA Brian James Rational Poet on FB and @brianrrs37 on twitter).
 
Those of the right
Rightfully condemn
Mixing the Koran
And that of weapons
 
There was a day
When the NRA was sane
When it valued safety 
Not a profit lobby
 
But fear works
It sells firearms 
To both society
And cops
 
It't sells Glocks
And bump stocks
AR-15s
And banana clips
 
Meanwhile cops
Punch in on the clock
Wondering if
They'll make it home at all
 
The rural right
Pitted against urban citizens
Not understanding
They've been pitted against
 
Pitted against
Each other needlessly
For nothing but
That of shear profit
 
Just like tobacco
Just like lead in gas
Protecting an industry 
No matter the cost
 
I live on the coast
In South Eastern NC
And not even here
We are gun violence free
 
Follow the industry
Follow the money
If you want 
To end this misery 
 
A flooded market
And ease of access
Maintained by greed
And corporate profits. 
(end)

A cacophony of insecurity, sense of entitlement topped off with the sugar coated Dirty Harry utopia nonsense that solves nothing.
