Not Gun, Stupid, It Is Bullet Poem by Aniruddha Pathak
Not Gun, Stupid, It Is Bullet
Wonder how gross gun lobbies can get,
Trump trumpets: people kill— those that hate—
Violent video games,
Let media share the blame,
Nor the gun, nor I blame the bullet.
________________________________________
Mass shooting in USA has become a day-to-day affair. At El Paso and Ohio a gun-totting boy killed 30 people and left many injured. US President links gun control to immigration, his pet aversion. He is still against gun control, saying, guns don't kill people, people do.

Americans are very sick with the GUNS! ! ! ! THEY CAN'T LIVE WITHOUT GUNS! ! ! ! ! I have written many poems about them. The subject being guns and killings. Thanks for sharing this poem with us.
You are absolutely right, there is no pint in side-tracking the main problem. Thank you
I agree violent video games are responsible for it, a message with an universal appeal.
When the country seriously needs to think about gun control, the President side tracks, saying not the gun, it is people that kill, the media, violent videos, yes, but basically the gun is too readily available to everybody, even young boys. He can as well as 'not the gun, it is the bullet! ! .

Nor the gun, nor I blame the bullet......from a point of view it is true that gun and bullet have no lives and these do not kill the people. In the other hand people kill the people through gun and bullet. Wonderful imagination. Nicely posted.
Thanks dear poet
