See your reviews are still just filler words to pick up Funny Money. Oh well, some things never change. Must have gotten a member to sponsor you for another year?

Thank you for offering your view.
Thank you very much for offering your view about my reviewing.
I am sorry to know about your confidence of achieving success in writing without keeping faith in God, as I know, no success is timeless, without faith in God, because God?s recognition is always timeless, that is the fruition of true faith in God, and if God finds faith in God is real. You have no faith in God as you have written in your statement I give a copy for your rethinking:
?Must have gotten a member to sponsor you for another year??
You are confident of achieving success without keeping faith in God, for it is not only absurd but it is impossible, just like going to Heaven at your own and without God?s will or without God?s recognition, for you live in and with the gifts by God and you do not keep faith in God; it is no stand of wisdom, for you never believe, as you have expressed in your statement with a mark of doubt about God?s power, for you certainly do not believe the truth that God can do anything, anywhere, anytime if He thinks it is necessary, that you never believe and I hope you will never understand or feel or realize ever, while in your writing you express your faith in God and that is for out of fear of God and for getting praise from readers for achieving your selfish interest of making profit out of writing, but without real, true, deep, keen and actual faith in God, you get no real timeless success, for success for a day or two is no success, I think, only true, real, actual, deep, hearty, and sincere faith in God can endow you a timeless success for I know and believe that writing to get achievement, money, recognition, stand, status, rank, interest, pride, for a day or two or temporarily is no achievement for I know only God?s recognition is timeless, for example The Ramayana by Valmiki (world?s first epic scribed thousands years ago) or The Mahabharata by Veda Vyas (world?s second epic scribed after the Ramayana thousands years ago), and without true faith in God it is impossible, for showmanship faith in God, deemed showing faith in God, showing faith in God fictitiously out of fear of God, or showing faith in God for self-interest fulfillment is no faith in God, you will have to practice and prove before God.
Again, I find, you have no faith in God, as it is evident, from your statement, again I give below for reading and pondering over:
Must have gotten a member to sponsor you for another year?
As I find, you are mistaken, I am helpless, about your statement, for I have faith in God, so I know God will send a sponsor for I know a man who has no faith in God will not be chosen by God and sent by God as a sponsor for man cannot cheat God, at the right time, God will send a sponsor to FanStory, that is my faith in God, you have no faith in God, so you can never understand because understanding other?s faith in God is an art and act of wisdom, and all are not wise or artist, that is why you have expressed your wisdom in your statement, evidently expressing your level, volume of showmanship faith in God, you have doubt about God?s power, that is why you have expressed your wisdom through such a statement.
I have faith in God, that is why I have clearly, evidently, explicitly and truly stated as I know and believe at the right time God will send a sponsor, and I wait for a God-sent sponsor and as I have faith in God, I keep waiting for God?s action and a God-sent sponsor.
Thanking you once again for writing,
Wishing you every success in your chosen goal,
With kindest personal regards,

After mass shootings and call for gun control the sale of firearms increase. In almost all cases the weapons used in such shootings already break existing laws. Murder is against the law in all 50 states and US territories. One more law will make no difference.

Comment from Mystic Angel 7777
This certainly is a timely piece since the typical knee jerk reactions are front page news once again. It progresses logically making it easy to follow. There were a couple of stats quoted that may be outdated, but I doubt anyone will care since politicians use quasi-fact all the time to promote their opinions. Nicely done and thank you very much for sharing it.

Comment from BeasPeas
Good write, Brett. The problem with the movement for gun control is twofold: (1) It's our Constitutional right. (2) Responsible gun owners are not the problem.
I agree that the biggest outcry comes when there is a new tragedy. Marilyn

Comment from Sandra du Plessis
A very well-written informative piece. I agree, the gun cannot kill anyone if there is not someone to pull the trigger. When no one has guns to protect themselves it make it much easier for criminals that will have illegal guns to kill the unarmed law abiding citizens.

"Of course Brett this is a very sensitive subject."
"And, just as much as 'Right to Bear Arms' is to 'Freedom of Speech,' and right to choose."
"Whether or not to abort?"
...
"Abort the fetus?"
"Abort your Right to Bear?"
"Lets go deeper...
'To Bear?'
"To bear what?"
"To care what?"
"To give and share what?"
...
"The point is in all of these issues...
"Whether it's destruction of a fetus...
"That has no defense or choice in the matter...
"Or destruction of children as Human Beings?"
...
"Shootings so recent, indecent...
"In High Schools...
"In Colleges and Universities...
"At Synagogues and Mosques to simply give that infant a name and Brisque?"
...
"The Human Element is confused on this planet."
"The Human Element has been abused on this planet."
"And the old saying...
'What comes around goes around!'
"Is so true."
...
"And, in that situation with the Abused and Confused Human Element...
"They feel that they can and will retaliate."
...
"Whether it's something as simple as bullying as a child or something as serious as being beaten and whipped with a Bullwhip to my childhood friend Charlie Potts was by his father!"
"If he didn't comply!"
...
"In closing Brett, and this was well presented...
"When will we ever grow up?"
'when is enough enough?"
"When this Cycle takes a 9-11 Intention?"
"We need to more examine these issues and more!"
"Educate and reward with not a Gun or Dagger but will Love and Warmth."
"When will we treat each other as an equal?"
"And, when will we not be biased and practice prejudism?"
"Prostitution?"
"The Right not to Bear arms but to share and wrap our arms around our brothers and protect."
"Reflect in the Holy Bible and it has the key to Infinity before it is too late."
...
"Practice the right to bear not arms of deadly weapons...
"But the right to use them not in matter of protection ..
"By any other force outside of Military, Police, and Registers Hunters "
"With Liberty and Justice to be a Human Being?
"Not to use them as they feel they should!"

Comment from Shirley McLain
That is a big topic. I didn't see any errors in your writing. I'll get on my soapbox for a minute. I think people can own guns and rifles but no one needs military style weapons to hunt a squirrel or a deer. I'm off my box now so you have a great afternoon. Shirley

Comment from 24chas
You're right, Brett. This is a hot button issue especially after an incident involving a gun. The thing that bothers me is that if a person wants to hurt other people, they are going to find a way to do it. In the area I live in, there has been a rash of stabbings, but you don't hear anything about banning knives. Which, I know, would be ridiculous. And I've always thought that if more gun control happens, it probably isn't going to make much difference anyway. A criminal tends not to follow the law anyway, so he would just steal what he needs anyway.

Comment from Miss Sherry
This is a very complex and difficult subject to address. I want my words to be meaningful and sensible, but I do not own a gun, and if I did I would probably shoot off a toe. I definitely believe the auto weapons and those bump things should be strictly controlled - so many idiots who do not know or care what they are doing. However, if I were about to be harmed or raped, a gun would not be turned down. There has to be a balance somewhere. If only nuts have guns, how safe are we? NZ was an aberration by a sick man out of control. The right to bear arms is a sacred cow, but one we have dealt with equitably so far. If you have an answer, I am sure we would all love to hear it. You have presented this fairly and I deeply respect that.

Comment from Colin John
Another interesting read Brett , to be faced with a gun must be horrendous if your not armed , to defend yourself is everybody's right when it's on epidemic scales as I understand it is in the USA , we have knife crime here and it's shocking . I take your point on the timing of the polls / strategy they did it with Brexit and they did the same with Trump from memory , but we were not fooled here about Brexit . Cheers good work
