This drawing describes the areas that need to be
addressed to minimize violence in our society. I say minimize because violence cannot be completely eliminated. However, the fact that violence cannot be completely
solved does not mean that it should not be addressed in a meaningful manner.
From my perspective, guns are the area where we could make the quickest
progress. However, a comprehensive approach (as I lay out in my last post) is
absolutely needed.
The areas of the picture that indicate a “Danger”
zone could very well include violence. There are evil people in this world that
do not require mental illness or guns to commit violence. However, to commit violence
on the scale that has occurred all too frequently this year, guns and mental health must be factors.
So Mr. Vice President, this picture is for you. If
you can eliminate the "Inaction" with "Solutions" you will
have completed your task. With “Solutions” in the picture, the “Danger” can be
replaced with ‘Warning – Take Action”. Mr. Vice President, we all are pulling
for you to be successful.
