Miserable . . .

(https://www.nbcnews.com/storyline/texas-church-shooting/fact-check-no-more-guns-won-t-prevent-mass-shootings-n818126)
". . . In the mid 1990s, the gun lobby accused the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention of being anti-gun after a 1993 study found that keeping firearms in the home increased the risk of homicide by a family member or intimate acquaintance — and the National Rifle Association encouraged its congressional allies to target CDC funding. Congress passed a 1996 spending bill with the Dickey Amendment, a rider that barred government funds going to the CDC from being used to “advocate or promote gun control.” Congress stripped the CDC of the $2.6 million spent annually on gun violence research. . .“We hadn’t been advocating gun control,” Mark Rosenberg, who oversaw the CDC's gun violence research efforts at the time, told NBC News. “It was kinda a shot across the bow. It said, 'Look, if you keep doing this, we can make your life miserable.'”. . ."

Or Not . . .

When they first met
There was no magic
Yet there was something in the air
Drawn to each other
Like there was no tomorrow
Because of something yesterday

Now he wants to be what she wants him to be
He wants to be what she wants him to be
With no regard about the man she really sees
Like living in the past
Contracting some disease

One little girl
Without a care or worry
Who had the world at her command
Found without warning
Someone she lost one morning
Was so much more than just a man

Now he wants to be what she wants him to be
He wants to be what she wants him to be
With no regard about the man she really sees
Like living in the past
Contracting some disease

I never ceases to amaze
The things that motivate us
To some lofty height or to the deepest depth
But if the timing's right
You walk into the room just when
They need another volunteer to save the wreck

Are there regrets
Will there be second guessing
About the way this thing was handled
Are they content
And would they ever tell me
As if I really need to know

Now he wants to be what she wants him to be
He wants to be what she wants him to be
With no regard about the man she really sees
Like living in the past
Contracting some disease


To Be
