Quick shot the dog

Kadizzle returned to Payson. The lead story in the paper was about a local gun nut that shot a woman's dog. Apparently the gun nut thought the dog posed a threat. Who knows what happened, but knowing we have gun dingers so ready to shoot is scary. In the grocery stores in Payson the gun crazies can be seen packing their cannons. Anyone who is so paranoid that they need a sidearm has a problem. Who are they afraid of? Kadizzle has asked the Safeway management to ban the gunslingers. Why should shopping be dangerous from deranged gunmen? Of course the gun crazy cook up all kinds of reasons they need to be armed. Kadizzle is 75 and made it 75 years without having a gun strapped to his side. Now what has changed? Right wing Republicans sew stories of danger that does not exist, but the gun dingers buy into it. Mrs. Kadizzle, and Mr. Kadizzle have hiked thousands of miles through the wilderness without a gun, yet we come across the fearful dingers afraid some animal is going to attack them. Fear is a powerful motivator, and Trump gives it out like candy. Is this the kind of society we want?
