Warriors are not what you think of as warriors. The warrior is not someone who fights, for no one has the right to take another life. The warrior, for us, is the one who sacrifices himself for the good of others. His task is to take care of the elderly, the defenseless, those who cannot provide for themselves, and above all, the children, the future of humanity.

Sitting Bull (1831-1890)

Bushmaster target marketing…

(American advert)

As a man, I find it very sad when “masculinity” is equated with dominant force and “firepower” in such a clichéd manner… thankfully much of the “civilized” world has moved beyond equating virility with aggression and violence.

Killing scores of young children by firing hundreds of high-velocity rounds from a semiautomatic military-style Bushmaster assault rifle is “macho?” Really?

People with guns kill people.
