5 ways to gun safety

When you think of ways to keep your kids safe, you never really think that some crazy idiot or mentally challenged young adult is going to mow them down with his mother's assault weapon. For the next few decades we will be trying to resolve the terrible tragedies that have been placed on our TV screens for all to witness for the ages. Therefore, we are as a nation supposedly civilized, in a position to either except it or fix it.
It seems that money is more important than our lives and our politicians like money more that us, they will never or probably never come up with legislation to stop or at least reduce these evil incidents.
So, what do we do in the meantime, sit idly by or rack our brains for solutions or remedies.

5 Ways to Gun Safety

1. Mandatory vaults or safes for home use that can be unlocked by the owner in a matter of minutes in case of home invasion. By key or silent code, or red beam attached to a chain of keys.
2. New gun laws demanding annual testing by a questionnaire just like your drivers test, to show stability or the ability to safely own guns.
3. Fingerprint pistol triggers, *we already have the technology* so that only the owner can fire the weapon.
4. Mandatory testing forms or application for all gun sales shops with stricter regulations. If you're going to sell it know who you're selling it to.
5. Stop the parking lot gun shows in rural America. The 1st defense against illegal gun sales.

MIRACLE IN NEWTOWN

Webster's defines 'miracle' as: an extraordinary event manifesting divine intervention in human affairs, alas the changing of a Nation. The devastation and mind boggling aftermath of the murder of little children and heroic adults in Newtown, Connecticut last Friday can only be thought of as a violent nightmare that will go down in our Nation's history. The sacrifice those parents made and are making should not go unnoticed, nor will it. 
We as a Nation of God fearing people, (most of us anyway) have been changed forever. We will never understand the evil that lurks in mentally complex  individuals or even sane people who could spray bullets into our loved ones, especially 6 and 7 year old "Angels". 
I must admit I think it's a "miracle", I really do. Only our divine Holy Father would take those "little Angels" so early in life for a purpose. I must come to this conclusion, because we need closure, and that is my way of understanding this atrocious act. It's only for my reasons and you can agree or disagree. 
I want change, you want change, we all want change, and our President made that statement in one of his best speeches of his tenure as our Commander in Chief. I will always think of "Newtown" as a "Miracle"
