You can get more with a kind word and a gun than with a kind word alone. – Al Capone (attrib.)
We are not going to comment on the Nashville school massacre, the Louisville workplace murders, the recently reported series of “get off my lawn” shootings by angry or frightened householders around the country, or the recurrent gang related quarrels that turn social gatherings and public sidewalks into fields of fire.
