They kill angels on earth dear God..

I concern and worry for my world.

They are killing angels on earth dear God..

“The UN recorded at least 33,443 civilian deaths in armed conflicts in 2023, representing a 72 per cent increase compared with 2022, and the proportion of women and children killed doubled and tripled, respectively.”

“There have been more than 385 mass shootings in 2024 so far, which is defined by the Gun Violence Archive as an incident in which four or more victims are shot or killed. In the USA.”

I do love the great Moms Mabley. Her song had purpose and reason today. The world had accepted war with a blink of a eye. Death in Palestine, Israel, Ukraine and Russia. Just a number.

When I was young. I watched the late sixties TV. The had body counts. USA soldiers and the Vietnam soldiers counted like a game show. I didn’t understand what the reason for. Now it create great sadness.

The USA love their guns. USA had more weapon of death than the whole world. After the murder of Christina Grimmie and the Orlando massacre. They attempted to change the rules on gun ownership. The NRA bought the Republican. We are less safe today.

They are killing angels my dear friends. Angry and hateful men prefer death over the safety of the children, of the women. The greedy people who profit from war. Need war.

“There are at least 32 ongoing conflicts worldwide¹. These conflicts cover various regions and types, including armed conflicts“

Guns cost money, bullets cost money. Planes cost billions, tanks cost millions and the value of a soldier life. Mean little.

My Ojibwa poem for the killing of angels..

“Little one, don’t you cry.

Once day, the gun will stop shooting,

the bombs will not be heard.

My little one, don’t you hide.

Someday our world can be safe for you.

Someday we won’t see race, religion or color.

We will become just people.

Little one, we must stand for peace and hope.

All of gather in the comfort of nature.

Pray in the voices of many for no more war, no more violence.

I pray we learn the babies are angels, the children are angel.

The kind women are angels. Just seeking to be safe.”

When a violence man killed Christina Grimmie. We learn.

They kill angels dear Lord.

When they murdered Abe Lincoln, Martin Luther King Jr., John F. Kennedy and his brother.

Robert Kennedy. How men of peace can be killed.

How many children will die in Palestine today?

How many children will die in Russia and Ukraine today?

Do we know their name?

They are killing angels on earth God.

Where are the peacemaker.

One earth, one people. We must get along.

Bobby Kennedy was shot on my 18th birthday and died after midnight, which was my graduation day from high school...I was excited about voting for the first time...that weekend was a nightmare....
Martin Luther and JFK, nightmares as well...and children dying because of so many guns with easier access....do we need them so badly that the lives of children don't matter that much?
I don't want to see race, religion or color...I just want to see all people as one, live in peace.

Me too Jacob. Now we are having violence in College Football games by players active in the game. The world had accepted violence. It is sad.

Jacob sounds like John Lennon’s “Imagine”.

The suffering is everywhere. I rarely hear about India. India leader trying to stop violence in other parts of the world. Where I live in People. The India people do well. Hard workers, strong and kind. The whole world need healing. Including myself. Words mean nothing. We need a billion people march for peace, hunger and equality.

This sounds like a song from Greenwich Village in 1960 and that’s a good thing.

I wish I was at Greenwich Village Winston. Where the peacemakers my friend? Thank you for reading and the comment.

You speak true words. C. Devices that convert semiautomatic handguns into full automatics are available and we live in an age of anger where there are many who are ready to use them. And, as always, there are wars and rumors of wars. It's enough to make one paranoid.

I don't like to go to large gathering. It is sad. In 8 years. Violence is everywhere. Look at the Ohio State and Michigan. A fight. Lions and Green Bay. Fights. 20 years ago. A food ball game was just a football game. Somehow my friend. The violence must end. Thank you my friend for reading and the comment. I do appreciate.

I love your Ojibwa Poem, John. I too pray for a time when we celebrate each other and not hurt one another. Much love, my dear friend:0

Thank you dear Pryde. I appreciate the comment.

We live in very frightening times Coyote. The amount of money spent on warfare is a scandal, but there is money in it. Shocking to think of it like that. And the deaths are heartbreaking. All those innocents dying. Our species is shameful. If only they spent more time in discussion rather than resorting to weaponry. I don’t know what the answer is my friend. We can only pray. This post hurts to read.

I agree dear Chris. USA had become a war ground. No safe place to live. People love guns more than being safe. Thank you for reading and the comment. I am praying for comment sense too.

Very very sad really saddening.. I do fear for gun shooting, why in USA commoners do have license...
Everyone thinks everything replaceable, so people pass this news like turning next page When we are heading to what's next... only Nature will answer..
I already seen tel my mamma song before, but something same happened to her.. it's disheartening..

[Coyote Poetry]

She was killed at her concert eight years ago. Christina Grimmie was a good person. Lost to gun violence. Thank you my friend for reading and the comment. I do appreciate.
