Shootings in Dallas, Minnesota and Baton Rouge: What We Know




Yes, people pull the trigger - but guns are the instrument of 

death. Gun control is necessary, and delay means more

death and horror.   -- Eliot Spitzer



Every gun that is made, every warship launched, every 

rocket fired, signifies in the final sense a theft from those who

hunger and are not fed, those who are cold and are not

clothed.                  -- Dwight D. Eisenhower



                      "Thou shalt not kill."    --  The Bible

                                   Pablo Picasso's "Guernica", 1937.
